The laundry and textile industry — covering everything from commercial laundries and hospitals to hotels, uniform services, and industrial textile management — faces a unique challenge: tracking thousands (or even millions) of individual textile items through repeated wash cycles, heat exposure, chemicals, and handling. Traditional tracking methods such as manual counting, barcodes, or handwritten logs are inefficient, prone to errors, and slow. Enter Washable RFID Tags — speci …

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology has revolutionized asset tracking, inventory management, and various data capture processes across industries. Among the RFID hardware devices, RFID sleds and handheld RFID readers are two common portable options that often get confused due to their similarities in form and function. However, they serve different use cases and have distinct technical and functional characteristics. Choosing the right device depends on various factors such as appli …

Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology has become a cornerstone of modern tracking, inventory management, and identification systems across various industries. One of the most flexible and widely adopted forms of RFID technology is the RFID label. RFID labels, often confused with RFID tags, combine the benefits of RFID with the convenience of traditional adhesive labels. These smart labels are transforming how businesses manage assets, inventory, logistics, and retail operations. In th …

Adopting RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technology in retail is a transformative move that enhances inventory accuracy, reduces labor costs, improves loss prevention, and enables real-time item visibility. However, one of the most critical yet often overlooked components of an effective RFID deployment is RFID label encoding. Encoding RFID labels involves writing data onto RFID tags, typically in the form of Electronic Product Codes (EPCs) or serialized identifiers, which uniquely identif …

In today's fast-paced and hyper-connected world, knowing where things are in real time is critical to operational efficiency, security, and asset visibility. This is where Real-Time Location Systems (RTLS) come in—powerful technologies that allow organizations to track the movement and position of people and assets with high accuracy. One of the foundational technologies that enable RTLS is Radio Frequency Identification (RFID). This article dives deep into how RFID tags enable RTLS, the v …
