Bamboo Badges: Security Meet Sustainability
HID’s latest study on the state of access control in 2023 revealed that while end users may have different demands and worries, they almost all concur on the need for sustainable solutions. In fact, nearly 90% of those who responded to their study ranked sustainability as a major concern.
Who is driving this shift?
- This need is mostly driven by end users and their customers, who demand greater operational transparency and solutions with less negative environmental impact.
- Investors are using non-financial environmental, social, and corporate governance (ESG) issues more frequently as part of their analytical process to spot important risks and expansion potential.
- Leading security companies are increasingly reporting sustainability accomplishments in their systems.
- Businesses use "Net zero" and "renewable" more frequently.
- According to Bloomberg, global ESG assets will reach $53 trillion by 2025, accounting for more than one-third of all expected assets under management.
- With its Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs), a series of 17 goals and 169 targets that balance ESGs, the United Nations places emphasis on the importance of sustainability.
Introducing the HID Eco Card:
Material of choice: Bamboo. Why bamboo? HID noticed how quickly it grows and how little agricultural intervention—such as fertilizer or pesticides—is needed. Another perk is that very little energy is used during processing, which results in fewer greenhouse gas emissions. Additionally, it helps consumers use less plastic, which they appreciate. The Forest Stewardship Council (FSC) and TUViT Seal 5 have validated the sustainable bamboo composition of the HID Eco Card. To discover more, view the video down below.
