PrintPlast Creates Black Rosewood Bead RFID Wristbands for Amanera Dominican Republic

PrintPlast is honored to announce our partnership with Amanera, Aman's extraordinary Caribbean sanctuary perched on dramatic cliffs above the Dominican Republic's northern coast. Where the Atlantic Ocean meets pristine tropical forest, this remarkable resort represents the pinnacle of barefoot luxury in the Americas.

For Amanera, PrintPlast has created an entirely bespoke product: wooden bead RFID wristbands crafted from Black Rosewood, featuring 18 hand-polished beads strung around an oval RFID tag laser-engraved with the resort's name. This is not merely a room key. It is wearable Caribbean jewelry that guests never want to remove.

Amanera: Where Cliffs Meet Caribbean

Amanera occupies a spectacular setting on the Playa Grande headland, where forested cliffs plunge into turquoise waters. The resort's casitas are scattered across the landscape, each offering panoramic ocean views and direct access to pristine beaches below. Guests come here for the legendary Aman service, the world-class golf course, and the rare privilege of experiencing the Caribbean's most unspoiled coastline.

In this environment where nature and luxury intertwine, traditional plastic key cards feel jarringly out of place. PrintPlast's wooden bead wristbands offer something entirely different: a piece of Caribbean craftsmanship that guests wear as naturally as they would a treasured bracelet from a local artisan.

A Revolutionary Design: The Bead Wristband

For Amanera, PrintPlast developed a completely custom product that transcends conventional access solutions. Each wristband features:

• 18 hand-polished Black Rosewood beads, each displaying unique natural grain patterns
• Oval wooden RFID tag (40mm × 26mm), laser-engraved with "AMANERA" on front
• QR code on reverse, linking to resort services and information
• Embedded RFID chip, invisible yet fully functional contactless technology

Black Rosewood: Caribbean Elegance

Black Rosewood was chosen for its deep, rich tones and exceptional beauty. This premium hardwood displays dramatic grain patterns that range from chocolate brown to near-black, with each bead exhibiting its own unique character. The natural luster of polished rosewood develops a beautiful patina over time, making each wristband more personal with wear.

The warmth of Black Rosewood perfectly complements Amanera's design aesthetic, where natural materials, earthy tones, and organic forms create spaces that feel both luxurious and connected to the surrounding landscape.

Designed for Beach Life

Life at Amanera flows between clifftop casitas, golden beaches, and crystalline waters. The wooden bead wristband is engineered for this environment:

• Water-resistant construction, survives ocean swims and pool sessions
• Comfortable all-day wear, smooth beads and flexible stringing
• Salt and sun resistant, maintains beauty in tropical conditions
• Adjustable fit, elastic stringing accommodates all wrist sizes

Unlike traditional key cards that must be stored safely while swimming, the bead wristband stays comfortably on the wrist through every activity, from morning yoga to sunset cocktails.

Seamless RFID Technology

Concealed within the elegant oval tag lies advanced contactless technology. A simple tap of the wrist provides:

• Private casita access and secure storage
• Spa and wellness pavilion entry
• Beach club and pool facilities
• Restaurant and bar charging privileges

The QR code on the reverse provides instant access to resort information, activity schedules, and concierge services, creating a seamless digital experience without disrupting the analog beauty of the wristband itself.

The Aman Philosophy in Every Detail

Aman resorts are renowned for their meticulous attention to detail, where every touchpoint reflects the brand's philosophy of serene luxury. The wooden bead wristband embodies this approach: sustainable materials, artisan craftsmanship, and technology that enhances rather than intrudes upon the guest experience.

From the moment guests receive their wristband, they understand that Amanera approaches every element of their stay with the same thoughtfulness and care.

A Treasured Keepsake

Perhaps the greatest testament to this product's success is what happens at checkout. Traditional key cards are returned without thought. But the wooden bead wristband? Guests overwhelmingly choose to keep them, taking home a tangible connection to their Caribbean escape.

The wristband becomes a conversation piece, a memory trigger, and a subtle reminder of days spent on Dominican cliffs and beaches. Many guests wear their Amanera bracelet for months afterward, a lasting ambassador for the resort and the extraordinary experience it provides.

Environmental Commitment

The wooden bead wristband aligns with Amanera's dedication to environmental stewardship:

Setting a New Standard

The collaboration between PrintPlast and Amanera represents a new frontier in hospitality access solutions. By reimagining the humble room key as a piece of wearable art, this partnership demonstrates that the most functional objects can also be the most beautiful. The wooden bead wristband has become an integral part of the Amanera experience, beloved by guests and staff alike.
