Sustainability info

Packaging

The wrapper is designed to protect the cards as well as the chip in them.

It serves not only as a protector but also as an information support so that the cards can be accompanied with an added value.

Plastic Bag

For plastic bags, we utilize polypropylene, a thermoplastic known for its high chemical, mechanical, and heat resistance. Integration with environmental compensation programs helps mitigate the material’s long degradation period, ensuring sustainability.

Paper Folders

Our paper folders are crafted from recycled paper and carry FSC certifications, aligning with our commitment to eco-conscious solutions. Versatile and adaptable to all card formats, these folders can be further customized to meet specific customer needs.

Additionally, we offer a printed mini guide or a QR code for information support, providing environmentally friendly options for accompanying the card.
In addition, we provide packaging in various shapes, sizes, finishes, and materials to suit your preferences and requirements. Reach out to our team to explore these options further and determine the best fit for your needs.

Value Added Services

Our value-added services encompass graphic design for customized packaging, including laser-engraved personalization and UVI printing for enhanced adhesion and quality assurance compliant with RoHs/REACH Annex 17 certifications.

Additionally, we incorporate environmentally friendly practices such as placing SIMcards in paper envelopes or folders, with options like seed paper material for eco-conscious packaging solutions.
