## FAQ
- Q: Does the leather housing attenuate the read range?
  A: No — leather (chrome-tanned, vegetable-tanned, chrome-free) and microfiber PU are RF-transparent at both 13.56 MHz HF and 125 kHz LF. Read range matches the same chip in a plastic housing: 3-5 cm tap at HF, 5-8 cm tap at LF. Antenna design and chip drive the range, not the housing. PACS integration, Wiegand / OSDP behaviour and access-control logic are identical to any ABS, epoxy or metal-housing fob.
- Q: How do you evidence the leather chemistry for EU retail and hotel procurement?
  A: Every production lot ships with a per-lot Cr(VI) certificate (IULTCS / ISO 17226-1 hot-water extraction + ISO 17226-2 HPLC) holding below the REACH Annex XVII entry 47 ≤ 3 mg/kg ceiling, plus a REACH SVHC candidate-list screen, a ZDHC MRSL v3.1 chemistry-input declaration, the OEKO-TEX Leather Standard article-test certificate where specified, and the Leather Working Group (LWG) tannery audit rating (Gold / Silver) on the tannery of record. Chrome-free / wet-white and microfiber PU variants close the chemistry line by construction and are the recommended route for halal / kosher / vegan-adjacent and EU Ecolabel retail programmes.
- Q: Can we get our brand logo foil-stamped, debossed or laser-engraved on the leather?
  A: Yes — all four decoration methods are supported. Debossing uses a heated steel die (~$120 one-time tooling) pressed into the grain; the impression is permanent and cannot fade or peel. Foil stamping adds gold / silver / rose-gold / copper or PMS foil to the debossed impression; expect 3-5 years of pristine foil on daily-carry duty before minor wear, after which the underlying impression remains fully legible. Laser engraving reaches 0.2 mm feature size and is preferred for variable-data serialisation, QR codes and guest-room pairings. Edge paint + contrast thread complete the couture finish.
- Q: Should I specify chrome-tanned, vegetable-tanned, chrome-free or microfiber PU for a hotel or residential programme?
  A: Chrome-tanned from an LWG-Gold tannery is the volume default for 4-star hotel and mid-tier residential — uniform colour, most durable, Cr(VI) ≤ 3 mg/kg audit closed per lot. Vegetable-tanned cowhide is the patina-forward luxury route for 5-star hotel and private-club programmes where the keyfob becomes a loyalty artefact. Chrome-free wet-white is the halal / kosher / vegan-adjacent and EU Ecolabel route where chrome tannage is disqualified by policy. Microfiber PU is the vegan + CITES-sensitive + cost-sensitive route and replicates exotic grains without CITES exposure. For pool-adjacent resort properties, skip leather entirely and specify silicone or epoxy — leather is not IP-rated and will warp under sustained moisture.
- Q: Which chip should we pair with the leather keyfob?
  A: For new luxury-residential or hotel rollouts specify MIFARE DESFire EV3 with AES-128 (ISO/IEC 14443-3, current NXP reference with a published roadmap through 2035+) or NTAG 424 DNA with SUN tap-to-reveal + anti-cloning for mobile-wallet and loyalty integration. For retrofits into buildings already wired for MIFARE Classic, use MIFARE Plus SE in SL1 migration mode (same 4-byte UID so the reader fleet stays intact) and schedule SL3 upgrade within 18 months. Do not commission fresh CRYPTO-1 MIFARE Classic rollouts — the cipher has been publicly broken since 2008 and both NXP and the German BSI recommend migration.
