Mandarin Oriental Munich Partners with PrintPlast to Launch Wooden RFID Key Cards

At PrintPlast, we take pride in combining cutting-edge technology with environmentally friendly practices to produce items that not only serve a practical purpose but also enhance the reputations of our valued partners. Our recent partnership with the renowned Mandarin Oriental Munich exemplifies this dedication. Together, we have developed a distinctive, sustainable solution for their guest experience, a beautifully crafted wooden RFID room key card featuring the advanced MIFARE Ultralight C chip.

An Authentic Collaboration Focused on Sustainability and Innovation

Mandarin Oriental is synonymous with luxury and excellence, renowned for delivering exceptional experiences to its guests. When the Mandarin Oriental Munich aimed to enrich its guest offerings with a product that mirrors its sustainability commitment and seamless service ethos, PrintPlast emerged as the perfect collaborator.

Our objective was to create a product that not only met the hotel's exacting standards but also resonated with its sustainability goals. The outcome? A uniquely designed, UV printed wooden key card that blends functionality with visual appeal.

Premium Materials and Advanced Technology

Using eco-friendly materials has become increasingly important in today's world. At the Mandarin Oriental Munich, we carefully chose premium beech wood for its durability and smooth texture, not just for looks but to make a statement. Opting for wood over traditional plastic cards has significantly reduced the environmental impact.

Each wooden key card is meticulously crafted to be sustainable and luxurious, reflecting the essence of the Mandarin Oriental brand. The natural wood grain offers a warm and inviting tactile experience, unlike the cold feel of plastic. Guests receive more than just a key card, they get a piece of art that elevates their stay at the hotel.

Beyond its beauty, our key card features the cutting-edge MIFARE Ultralight C chip, ensuring top-notch security and functionality with advanced encryption and anti-counterfeiting technology. Mandarin Oriental Munich, a high-end hotel that prioritizes guest safety, opted for this technology as the perfect solution.

Exceptional Design with UV Printing

The key card design at Mandarin Oriental Munich combines classic and contemporary elements, reflecting the hotel's distinctive standing in luxury hospitality. Through UV printing technology, high-resolution images are accurately reproduced to showcase every detail, from the hotel logo to art-inspired designs, with impeccable precision.

The UV coating not only elevates the card's visual appeal but also serves as a protective layer against wear and tear, ensuring durability for long-lasting use. Making sure that the key card stays in top-notch condition throughout its use helps to prolong its lifespan and reduce unnecessary waste.

Enhancing Guest Experience Through Thoughtful Design

Mandarin Oriental Munich pays meticulous attention to every detail to elevate the guest experience, with even the key card being carefully crafted. The tactile sensation of the wood, the captivating design, and the smooth operation of the MIFARE Ultralight C chip all work together to make a lasting first impression.

Guests receive a key card that goes beyond mere functionality; it symbolizes the hotel's dedication to excellence and sustainability. This level of care extends beyond just the room, as guests can use the card across various areas of the hotel, including spa access, dining facilities, and other exclusive spaces.

The fusion of eco-friendly materials with advanced technology reflects where luxury hospitality is headed. With guests increasingly mindful of their environmental footprint, they are more likely to value and support brands that share their beliefs. The decision by Mandarin Oriental Munich to collaborate with PrintPlast for these wooden key cards showcases a forward-looking strategy that resonates with today's discerning luxury travelers.
