Knowledge of Wooden RFID Hotel Key Cards


First of all, let' s popularize the basic knowledge of RFID technology and wooden RFID cards. RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technology is a non-contact automatic identification technology that realizes data transmission and identification of the customers through radio frequency signals, without the need for mechanical or optical contact between the card and the card reader on the door. Different from traditional PVC room key cards, wooden RFID cards use high-quality natural wood as the base material to protect the chips in the cards. Embed high-frequency (13.56MHz) RFID chips inside, wooden RFID hotel key cards can perfectly realize the core function of hotel room access control. Guests only need to approach the door lock with the card to complete identity verification and unlock, which is convenient and fast, especially suitable for quick check-in and night use for the hotel key cards.  


Advantages of Wooden RFID Hotel Key Cards


The application of wooden RFID cards in hotels has the following advantages. On the one hand, it meets the need of global environmental protection trend. The wood substrate can be naturally degraded without pollution, and the carbon emission during the production process is 30%-50% lower than that of traditional PVC cards, which helps hotels build a green and sustainable brand image, especially suitable for high-end eco-hotels and theme homestays of environmental protection. On the other hand, it enhances the guest experience of the hotel key card and brand recognition. The surface of the wooden card supports personalized customization such as color printing, bronzing and embossing. So hotels can print the their LOGO, theme patterns or local cultural elements on the wooden RFID hotel key cards, making them a unique souvenir for guests. This further deepens the hotel' s brand impression in the hearts of guests.


In addition, wooden RFID cards have excellent performance as the tools for opening doors. The selected high-quality wood is moisture-proof, wear-resistant and not easy to deform, which can adapt to the complex use environment of hotels. And the built-in RFID chip has the advantages of high confidentiality, fast information processing speed and strong anti-interference ability. This can ensure the safety and stability of room access control, and effectively avoid the problem of card copying or failure. With these advantages, wooden RFID hotel key cards perfectly solves the pain points of traditional PVC cards such as being easy to break, not environmentally friendly and lack of personality.
