AUSTRIACARD Achieves Mastercard Card ECO-Certification for Sustainable Payment Card Portfolio

February 3, 2026

AUSTRIACARD has earned Mastercard Card ECO-Certification (CEC) for our complete portfolio of environmentally sustainable payment card solutions for several consecutive years. This certification validates our commitment to reducing the environmental impact of payment cards while maintaining the highest standards of quality and performance.

Addressing a Global Environmental Challenge

With billions of payment cards produced globally each year, the industry’s environmental footprint is substantial. Our ECO-Certified cards represent a fundamental shift away from virgin fossil fuel-based materials toward renewable and recycled alternatives that dramatically reduce carbon emissions and environmental impact.

Innovative Materials, Proven Performance

Our certified solutions utilize advanced sustainable materials, including recycled PVC that gives new life to plastic waste and biobased Polylactic Acid (PLA) derived from renewable plant resources. PLA is completely free from harmful chlorides and aligns with circular economy principles, helping close the loop on plastic waste in the payment card industry.

Sustainability Without Compromise

Every solution has undergone rigorous testing through Mastercard’s Card Structure Integrity program, proving that environmental responsibility and performance excellence go hand in hand. Our cards deliver the same durability, security, and reliability that issuers and cardholders expect, while remaining compatible with multiple chip platforms and maintaining full EMV compliance.

Partnering for a Sustainable Future

The transition to sustainable payments reflects both corporate responsibility and evolving consumer expectations. Financial institutions can demonstrate environmental leadership with every card they issue. At AUSTRIACARD, we serve as your partner in this sustainability journey, reducing the payment card industry’s environmental footprint while delivering exceptional quality and performance.

The future of payments is sustainable, and we’re committed to making it a reality.
