Passive tags are the most cost-effective RFID tags. They don’t have their own power source and operate by drawing power from RFID readers. These affordable tags are also the most widely used. The majority of RFID systems are built using passive tags and are used across a wide range of industries.

RFID Application in the Textile Industry
RFID helps identify the types, sizes, and counts of textile products accurately. It is widely used by wholesalers, retailers, clothing service providers, hospitals, and hotels. Brand owners also use RFID to authenticate original products by sewing RFID tags into their items for tracking purposes.
Benefits of RFID in the Textile Sector
It provides advantages such as increased competitiveness, theft prevention, product traceability, and logistics efficiency. In retail, RFID enables the collection of detailed product interaction data. Returned items can be easily identified. Since product details like sale date and price can be stored in the tag, all data becomes accessible when scanned.
RFID vs Barcode Comparison
RFID readers can read multiple tags simultaneously, unlike barcodes which must be scanned one by one. RFID tags can store significantly more data and have dynamic memory. Active RFID tags have ranges up to 100 meters, while passive tags work up to 1 meter. Barcodes require optical contact and are less durable than RFID tags.
Challenges of RFID in the Textile Industry
Implementing RFID requires time and proper setup: reader positioning, tag provisioning, encoding, software development, and integration. The technology is costlier than traditional systems, which is its main disadvantage. However, once costs are managed, the system poses few other challenges.
Dear customers, the RFID tags you are viewing are not pre-encoded. Encoding and other technical processes are your responsibility. Please take this into consideration before placing your order. For detailed information, feel free to contact us.
