Sustainable RFID Solutions for Eco-Friendly Businesses
D&S Wood work Inc. (D&S) joins the growing list of card manufacturers that are producing eco-friendly products using sustainable materials including polylactic acid, recovered ocean bound plastic and recycled stainless steel.
D&S produces RFID key cards made from deforestation-free wood for the hospitality industry. According to a new report, wood-based products can assist with climate change mitigation by storing carbon, while also helping to avoid or reduce the greenhouse gas emissions associated with the materials for which they substitute, such as plastics, concrete, steel and synthetic fibers.
With more than 10 years of experience in the RFID key card industry, D&S works with thousands of hotels and has become one of the top suppliers in this segment. In addition to a hotel key card, wood cards can be used as transportation cards, souvenir cards, ID cards and other smart cards.
D&S realize that smart cards will face more severe challenges if we don’t move toward sustainable options. Our development team spent years on choosing and testing, to assure a durable lifespan with sustainable wooden materials, which has proven to be a great success in our market usage.
All raw materials come from commercially-planted forests, with no concern for deforestation and further pollution to the environment.

Forest Management Solution Partnership
With a significant investment in research and validation, D&S partners with the Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), the world’s most trusted sustainable forest management solution. The organization promotes environmentally appropriate, socially beneficial and economically viable management of the world’s forests.
As an FSC-certified supplier, D&S runs thousands of repeating tests and verification. D&S then chooses the seven types of natural wood, from all FSC-approved wooden sources, to process into hotel RFID key cards. All materials are originated from the FSC full-chain certification.
The core value of using an eco-friendly material in hotel key cards is there’s no additional damage or burden to our earth’s sustainable development,Upholding this mission, using 100% natural wood to process daily-use RFID cards, complies with FSC standards. Bringing sustainable products to the smart card industry is a small step. However, D&S hopes to gather more companions to achieve the earth’s healthy sustainable development for generations.
