TRACKING
Enhance Asset Tracking With
RFID Technology
Our customized RFID tags and labels enhance asset tracking and logistics systems by securely automating the tracking process with actionable data to pinpoint the exact location of important physical and human assets using passive RFID and/or active IoT technology.
RFID Tags, Labels, Bands & Cards
RFID asset tracking offers an efficient and dependable solution for keeping track on your physical assets by leveraging RFID technology and essential hardware such as readers and tags.
The process involves encoding an RFID tag (active or passive) with information (ID, status, amount, location, etc.) and affixing it to the corresponding asset, allowing it to be scanned and recorded within an asset tracking system.
RFID Asset Tracking can:
Track multiple assets at once
collect data in real-time
maximize invenotry accuracy

RFID Fast Facts
What is RFID?
Radio frequency identification (RFID) uses radio waves to identify people or objects. There is a device that reads the information contained in a wireless device or tag from a distance without making any physical contact or requiring a line of sight.
What can RFID be used for?
- Access control
- Inventory mangement
- Asset tracking
- Pharmaceuticals
- Supply chain management
What industry can benefit from RFID technology?
RFID technology can be a beneficial component to any industry. Healthcare and pharmaceuticals can use RFID for asset tracking. Retail and the automotive industry can use our custom RFID solutions for inventory management.
What RFID products do you have?
- RFID labels and bands
- RFID cards
- RFID fobs / key tags

There are three RFID frequencies to consider:
Low Frequency
- Have a frequency range between 125-134 kHz.
- Short read range.
- Slower read speed.
High Frequency
- Operates at a frequency of 13.65 MHz.
- Good at penetrating metal objects.
- Commonly used for tracking small assets and inventory.
Ultra-High Frequency
- Operates at a frequency of 300 MHz to 3 GHz
- Offers a high read range – up to 50 feet.
- Provides faster data transfer speeds than low and high-frequency RFID tags.
