What finishes are trending in 2025?
In 2025, matte and soft metallic finishes continue to dominate. Matte black and graphite remain timeless choices, while soft gold and natural titanium stand out for their understated elegance. Cool grey, silver, and blue titanium add a modern touch — all with Valenta’s signature matte sand-texture.
Why choose aluminium over plastic in a cardholder?
Aluminium is tougher, longer-lasting, and maintains its look better than plastic. It protects your cards from bending, breaking, and wear. Plus, it has a premium feel and finish.
Can aluminium cardholders help reduce long-term waste?
Definitely. Investing in one durable cardholder instead of replacing a cheap wallet every year saves materials, packaging, and production — good for your wallet and better for the environment.
Why is aluminium a smart pick for rainy climates like the Netherlands?
Aluminium resists rust, doesn't absorb moisture, and easily handles wet conditions. It's ideal for commuters, city walkers, or anyone caught in unexpected rain. Your cards stay safe and dry.
Does a MagSafe cardholder work with any phone case?
Only with MagSafe-compatible cases. Standard cases don’t align properly with the magnets, so the holder won’t stay securely attached.
What are the best colours to give as a gift?
Black and graphite grey are safe, stylish choices. These neutral tones make Valenta cardholders ideal gifts for birthdays, graduations, or new jobs. Thoughtful and functional — perfect for a first driver's license, office badge, or transit card. A Valenta makes the moment memorable and practical.
What’s the difference between RFID and NFC — and do I need protection for both?
RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) and NFC (Near Field Communication) both use wireless signals, but NFC operates at shorter range and is commonly used for contactless payments. Our RFID-blocking technology protects against both, ensuring full coverage and peace of mind.
