Cards, fobs, wristbands and the accessories around them, made in our plant and delivered under your brand, with no Kaway marking.
Every supplier says they respect the channel. It is worth saying exactly what we mean by it, in our own words, so you can hold us to it.
If you introduce a client, or you are already working with one, we do not sell to them directly. Not later, not through another route, not at a different price. No exceptions. If they come to us, we send them back to you.
White label on everything we make. No Kaway logo, no stamp, no reference on the card, the sleeve, the box or the delivery note. Your client sees your brand, because as far as the product is concerned that is who made it.
Samples, deliveries and paperwork go out under your brand and to your instructions, and we can ship straight to your client with your documents on the box. We do not contact them, before the order or after it.
Your artwork on the product, your brand on the box and on the paperwork. Nothing on any of it points back to us.
Making the card is the part every supplier does. What follows is the work that decides whether your client comes back to you, and it is where most of the difference sits.
Send the file before you place the order. Before you commit to anything you get back what will fail on press, from resolution and bleed to hairlines that close up, tints that will not hold and artwork sitting over the chip, with the corrected file. Free, and with no obligation.
Every order ships with a digital proof and a delivery dossier, both carrying your logo and written in your client's language. The render, the material certifications and the technical annex, ready to send on untouched. We do not appear anywhere in either.
If your client is bidding, we prepare the part that is ours. Technical annex, a compliance matrix against the specification, material data sheets and certificates, in your format and your language, and inside the deadline of the call.
Most of what follows is the part that gets subcontracted somewhere else in the chain, which is where margin and lead time go. All of it happens here.
Sequential numbering, printed barcodes and QR, variable data including name, photo and per-card data, chip encoding, and pre-encoded delivery with a UID list. Magnetic stripe, signature panel and scratch panel.
UV printing, microtext, guilloche, hologram and hot stamping. Specify what the card is protecting against and we will say which combination is worth the cost, and which is not.
Die-cutting and custom shapes, transparent card, matt or frosted finish, spot UV or gloss varnish, embossing and metallic foil stamping. The shape and the finish are agreed on the proof, before production.
Cards, the sleeve, the lanyard and the carrier. Quoted together, produced together, delivered together, against one approved set of artwork. One supplier to chase instead of three.
Send us the reader or the lock model your client already runs and we confirm the chip against it in writing before anything goes into production.
Frequency and chip family, from the reader or lock model, or from the card the site already uses. You can also post us a card and we verify it here.
On encrypted systems we supply the correct chip, but a credential controlled by the system owner has to be written by whoever holds those keys.
A written answer the same working day, and a free sample in the material and chip you asked for, so your client can test it in their own door.
All trademarks are the property of their respective owners. No affiliation or endorsement is implied.
Quantity, format, and the reader or lock model if there is a chip in it. Artwork can come later.
A written specification and a price against it. If something will not work, you hear that too.
Free where the request is qualified. Your client tests it in their own door before the run.
Artwork, colour, chip and finish stay on file, so a reorder repeats it instead of starting again.
No. If you introduce a client, or you are already working with one, they are yours. If they contact us directly we send them back to you rather than quote them. There is no version of this where it is worth more to us to keep the account than to keep the channel.
Yes, on everything we make, and it is the normal case rather than an option. No Kaway logo or reference on the card, the sleeve, the packaging or the delivery note.
Yes, under your brand, with your paperwork. Tell us what should and should not appear on the box.
The quantity, the format and the reader or lock model where there is a chip involved. Artwork can follow. If your client cannot tell you the chip, a photograph of both faces of the card they use today is usually enough for us to work it out.
The same working day. Quoting is not where we make you wait.
Yes, free where the request is qualified or the volume supports it. Tell us what you are pitching and we will send something that helps you win it rather than a generic blank.
Usually. Send the card itself if you can, with the reader or lock model and any specification they were given at installation. A physical card settles in one go what photographs and descriptions leave open.
Yes. The approved artwork, colour references, chip and finishing details stay on file and the reorder is produced against them, so you are not re-approving a specification you already signed off.
Yes. Sleeves, holders, lanyards, envelopes, carriers, door hangers and signage, made to fit the credential and produced on the same order.
RFID and NFC in PVC, recycled PVC, wood and bamboo, and shapes cut to a drawing rather than to CR80, all on one order.
