RFID technology is fast becoming a viable option for companies looking for comprehensive best practices in inventory control, asset tracking, and superior customer experience integration. The primary capabilities of RFID technology are a unique identifier that allows data to be retrieved instantaneously and a non-line-of-sight scanning capability, which enhances speed and accuracy. RFID readers are currently being used in many of the applications that affect businesses, such as warehouse management and storage, transportation of belongings, retail checkouts, billing systems, and manufacturing.

To get the most out of these powerful solutions, organisations looking to implement them will also need to understand how to integrate the solutions into current processes, which requires planning and consideration. There will need to be a mapping activity and assessment to know how RFID solutions will make processes better and into a more seamless tracking solution that reduces manual data entry, provides real-time insights into inventory, and makes billing and inventory planning simpler.

RFID tags and readers utilise the same power sources found in mobile phones and other wireless devices when communicating via radio frequency waves. Their chips are powered by onboard batteries, which either transmit data when activated or learn from their environment without actively scanning. Passive tags/labels offer very low energy footprint options and are therefore ideal for products shipped and stored away from powered readers.

Renewable energy and innovation have become mainstream business practices, driving a surge in the use of solar RFID tags that generate electricity as they track sunlight. These solar-powered tags provide a cost-effective and eco-friendly alternative to traditional batteries, aligning with corporate sustainability goals and reducing environmental impact.

The Walmart RFID Mandate has shone a bright light on RFID labelling technology and its benefits for brand customers. Label converters must now help these brand customers understand what this entails in terms of equipment and workflow considerations, as well as how RFID fits into their larger supply chain strategies.
