Secrid Cardprotector

Secrid is a renowned Dutch brand that revolutionized the wallet industry with the introduction of its iconic Cardprotector. Invented by René van Geer and Marianne van Sasse van Ysselt, the product was born from a background in industrial design and a desire to protect modern credit cards from both physical damage and electronic theft (RFID/NFC skimming).

The brand is deeply committed to ethical production and sustainability. Unlike many fashion brands that outsource manufacturing to lower-cost regions, Secrid maintains its production almost entirely within the Netherlands. The aluminum housing and various leather or fabric components are assembled in specialized social enterprises and workshops across the country, ensuring high quality and fair labor practices while minimizing the carbon footprint through local logistics.

Secrid remains an independent, family-owned company headquartered in The Hague. Their focus remains on innovative design merged with social responsibility, maintaining full control over the brand's evolution without being part of a larger multi-national conglomerate.
