Passive tags are the most cost-effective tags. Passive tags do not have their own power supply. They work with the power of RFID readers. These tags, which are the cheapest, are the most widely used tags. The vast majority of RFID systems are created with passive tags. It has a very wide range on a sectoral basis.

UHF RFID On-Metal Tags: Reliable Tracking on Metal Surfaces
RFID technology has transformed tracking and identification across industries. However, traditional RFID tags struggle on metal surfaces due to signal interference. UHF RFID on-metal tags solve this problem with specially designed antennas that perform efficiently on metal.
Compact and High-Performance
Operating in the 860–960 MHz range, these compact yet durable tags offer long read ranges and high accuracy, even in harsh environments. Their small size makes them ideal for diverse applications—from manufacturing and logistics to healthcare and asset tracking.
Versatile Industrial Use
These tags are used for tracking assets, inventory, tools, machinery, computers, and metal containers. They are designed for embedding into small recesses on metallic parts and work reliably within a temperature range of -20°C to +100°C. When mounted on metal, they offer a read range of up to 0.85 meters with a fixed reader.
Boost Efficiency with Metal-Compatible RFID
With their compact design, strong performance, and resistance to metal interference, UHF RFID on-metal tags are a powerful tool for improving visibility, accuracy, and operational efficiency across sectors.
