VingCard Elsafe Revolutionizes Green with a Whole New Degree of Innovation

Coming to this year’s HITEC 2010, VingCard Elsafe, the global leader in hospitality security, debuts its next generation of wireless solutions, designed to help hotels “go green” for guests – and contribute to hotels’ environmentally friendly initiatives.

Energy expense is the second highest cost for hotels and by changing the way properties consume energy, hoteliers will dramatically increase energy savings and reduce expenses at hotel properties of all sizes. VingCard’s new technology, designed with hoteliers’ and guests’ needs in mind, promises torevolutionize the way properties use and save energy. As guests become more concerned with global warming and as hotel properties take steps to have a positive impact on the environment, the new wireless solution from VingCard Elsafe enforces “green” initiatives and better positions hotel properties to make a real difference in the global environment.

VingCard Elsafe will demonstrate its new product innovation on Tuesday, June 22 at 10:00 a.m. in Booth #1017 at the 2010 Hospitality Industry Technology Exposition and Conference in Orlando, Florida.

The introduction follows the momentous success of VISIONLINE in 2006, VingCard’s wireless RF-online locking solution which offers a cost-effective solution for properties to facilitate reliable two-way communication between standalone electronic locks and the property’s host security and PMS systems. VISIONLINE is currently operating in more than 40,000 rooms worldwide and more rooms are coming online every day.
