Italian Company Creates RFID Cards in Biodegradable PVC

With many companies adopting eco-friendly solutions, an Italian company has created radio-frequency identification (RFID) cards and smart cards in biodegradable PVC. Gabrio Mechetti, card sales manager for Partitalia srl, says the material is a degradable PVC chemical. Biodegradable cards are in high demand. On one hand, cards are in great demand (credit cards, access control badges, gift cards and loyalty cards used in the retail and large-scale distribution sector), and on the other hand, a growing number of companies want cards made of biodegradable PVC to aim for the eco-sustainability of their products and to comply with European guidelines.
