Eco-Friendly NFC Wooden Cards — Where Nature Meets Contactless Technology

As businesses globally shift away from single-use plastics, our RFID wooden cards provide the perfect sustainable alternative. Each card is precision-milled from real wood, meaning no two cards are exactly alike—each carries its own unique natural grain pattern, telling the story of the tree it came from.

Inside the protective wood layers lies a high-performance NFC or RFID chip (NXP MIFARE, NTAG, ICODE, etc.), completely hidden from view but delivering lightning-fast tap-and-go functionality for smartphones, door locks, and point-of-sale systems.

Premium Wood Material Selection

We source only the finest FSC-certified timber from responsibly managed forests. Choose the wood species that best matches your brand's aesthetic:

• Black Walnut: Deep, rich, and luxurious. Perfect for high-end VIP loyalty cards and executive digital business cards.
• Bamboo: Highly sustainable, lightweight, and modern. A favorite for eco-resort hotel room keys.
• Maple & Birch: Light, clean canvas. Excellent for high-contrast laser engraving and vibrant UV color printing.
• Basswood & Cherry: Smooth texture with a warm, classic tone.
• Other exotic or specific wood types are available upon request for large OEM orders.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Q1. Are these wooden RFID cards durable enough to replace plastic PVC cards?

Yes. Our manufacturing process involves laminating the RFID inlay between thin layers of solid wood. The cards are structurally sound, slightly flexible, and designed to withstand the daily wear and tear of a wallet or hotel environment. The NFC chip is completely protected inside the wood core.

Q2. Can I use these wooden cards for my hotel's VingCard or Salto locks?

Absolutely. We regularly manufacture wooden hotel key cards. We simply embed the specific RFID chip required by your locking system—whether that's a MIFARE Classic 1K, MIFARE Ultralight EV1, or a secure MIFARE DESFire chip. Please specify your lock brand when requesting a quote.

Q3. Which chip should I choose for a wooden digital business card?

For tap-to-share digital business cards, we highly recommend the NXP NTAG213 or NTAG215. These NFC chips are natively compatible with all modern iPhones and Android devices. You just tap the wooden card to the phone, and your programmed URL or contact info instantly appears on the screen.

Q4. Is the laser engraving included, or can we do full-color printing?

As an OEM factory, we offer both! Laser engraving is the most popular choice as it burns your logo directly into the wood for a premium, rustic look. However, we also offer UV color printing if your corporate branding requires strict Pantone color matching, as well as metallic foil hot stamping.

Q5. Do you offer wholesale pricing for B2B orders?

Yes. We are a direct manufacturer. Our standard MOQ is 1,000 pieces, and our pricing scales significantly for large-volume rollouts for hospitality groups, marketing agencies, and corporate clients.
