I've used the 'Defender' signal blocker pouch. These do wear out . With a bunch of keys (including house keys) going in every 2 days on average they lat about 2 years or so. I test regularly. My current ones are lasting a bit longer due to not using the car so often.
Note the Defender pouches, also have an annoying non screened pocket at the front, that you can put keys into if you are not careful.
Tried various tins , but never found anything I can be 100% sure of so avoided.
CheersGary

Keys can tear the inner sleeve of a pouch, the fobs don't, so I don't have any keys attached to he fob.
Simple but effective remedy to the pouch failing.

Sadly that’s not the case for me. The newer smaller LR fob is all that goes into my faraday pouches and they still stop working after a while. 2006 D3 HSE (Original & still the best)-GONE

it's a coating inside the pouch. keys in/out and creasing the pouch in/out your pocket will degrade/remove the coating..

The pouch at home stays flat and lives on top of a bookshelf. It gets opened and closed typically twice a day and that’s it. It still looks like new. It’s a mystery as to why it no longer works.2006 D3 HSE (Original & still the best)-GONE

Try a Google search for - EMF Protection Fabric Faraday Fabric RFID Shielding Nickel Copper Fabric Military Grade Fabric
This will throw up a number of suppliers.
I'm going to talk to my favourite maker of leather goods to see what he could do.
I have in mind a pouch comprising outer & inner leather skins and a core of military grade EMF Protection Fabric. It will be expensive so I will probably specify two layers of the EMF Protection Fabric.
In the short term I'm going to buy some Military Grade EMF Protection Fabric to make into a pouch for use at home.

I think someone on here uses a small aluminium cooking pot or saucepan, with a lid, to keep their keys/fobs it.2006 D3 HSE (Original & still the best)-GONE

With or without a pouch, the microwave is a good place to keep overnight.
