Frequently asked questions about RFID & NFC wristbands

Which material is best for RFID wristbands: silicone, fabric or PVC?

It depends on the use case. Silicone is the most durable and long-lasting option, ideal for gyms, hotels and swimming pools. Fabric is the most visual and customisable, perfect for festivals and branded events. Single-use PVC is the most cost-effective, designed for hospitals, one-day events and strict capacity control.

Which RFID chip is most commonly used in gym wristbands?

Mifare Classic 1K at 13.56 MHz is the most widely used standard in gyms and sports centres due to its universal compatibility with the leading access control and locker management systems on the market.

Are RFID silicone wristbands resistant to water and chlorine?

Yes. Our RFID silicone wristbands are made from medical-grade silicone. They are fully waterproof and resistant to chlorine, salt water and intensive use in swimming pools and water parks.

What is a Dual Tech RFID wristband?

A Dual Tech wristband integrates two chips of different frequencies (typically 125 kHz + 13.56 MHz) in a single credential. It allows users to access access control systems running different technologies without needing to carry two separate wristbands or credentials.
