Smarter, Greener Way to Access — Go Mobile with HID
The future of access control is mobile — and it’s not just about convenience. It’s about sustainability, security, and setting a new standard for responsible technology use.
HID Mobile Access enables users to unlock doors using smartphones or wearables, eliminating the need for physical cards and transforming the way we think about access. And now, thanks to an independent Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) commissioned by HID, we can prove that going mobile isn’t just more innovative — it’s better for the environment.
Let data speak
HID Mobile Access significantly outperforms traditional PVC cards in every major environmental category. It generates 75% less carbon emissions and 83% less fossil fuel depletion, as it leverages devices users already carry, eliminating the need to produce traditional PVC cards. It also contributes to 88% less water pollution through reduced nutrient runoff, 92% less smog formation, and is 94% less likely to contribute to acid rain. Most remarkably, mobile access is 99.99% less likely to harm the ozone layer — making it 338,000 times more environmentally friendly than traditional PVC cards.
This is about more than numbers. It’s about building a safer, more sustainable future — and it starts with every access point. HID Mobile Access not only simplifies the user experience but also supports environmental certifications, such as LEED and BREEAM, helping your organization meet evolving sustainability goals.
Moreover, HID Mobile Access doesn’t just benefit the planet — it also delivers powerful operational advantages that make it a smarter choice for today’s businesses.
