Antimicrobial MIFARE Classic® EV1 1K Blank White PVC Cards

MIFARE Classic, the pioneer in contactless smart cards operating in the 13.56Mhz range is the flagship product in the MIFARE family. It began the contactless revolution, paving the way for contactless cards in a wide range of applications including access management, employee ID, student ID, public transport, event ticketing, cashless vending and more.

MIFARE Classic EV1 is the latest evolution of this popular contactless technology and succeeds all previous versions of the technology.

Constructed compliant to ISO standards, these MIFARE Classic EV1 cards are CR80 size (standard credit card size) with a thickness of approximately 820 microns / 0.03” and are finished in a premium gloss, suitable for printing with any standard ID Card Printer.

Compliant to ISO/IEC 14443 Type A, MIFARE Classic EV1 1K cards operate at a frequency of 13.56Mhz, feature a 4 Byte NUID and 1K EEPROM, arranged in 16 sectors, with user definable access conditions, a data retention period of 10 years and a read/write endurance of 200,000 cycles.

This antimicrobial variant retains all of the benefits and features of Mifare Classic EV1 1K while adding an extra layer of protection, via an antimicrobial overlay which reduces bacterial activity on the card surface by over 99%

Specially designed to stop the replication and growth of bacteria on their surface, these cards are manufactured to the same high specifications with an extra additive introduced to the overlay on the surface of the card. It's this additive that gives the cards surface its antimicrobial properties.  

This additive uses silver-based nanotechnology that stops bacteria growth in three ways; it ruptures the bacterial cell membrane, immobilises the bacteria by depleting oxygen levels and destroys the reproductive receptor.

Silver, used widely in the medical industry for many years, is naturally antimicrobial and offer an array of benefits when compared with non-silver-based antimicrobials. These include sustainability, superior durability, low MIC (minimum inhibition concentration – the level at which a material is effective against microbes) and bacteria doesn't develop resistance, unlike some of the non-silver antimicrobials.
