RFID technology applied to the follow-up of containers, plastic crates, pallets, small boxes, etc. enables completely reliable monitoring of containers which circulate in a closed loop from one site to another.
RFID technology applied to the supply chain makes follow-up and tracking operations more effective and increases the competitiveness of this market. Thanks to RFID labels, pallets, plastic crates and boxes can be followed in real time from the production site to the distribution platform and all the way through to the point of sale.
By simply attaching an RFID label on containers and reading this identifier at the various points of passage between two sites (exit from production, logistics platform, store warehouse, etc.) it is possible to know exactly where the container is located at all times. RFID also makes it possible to identify the step at which a container has been either damaged or mislaid.
Automation of container follow-up with RFID allows:
• Complete tracking of containers all along the circuit (near 100 % follow-up).
• Validation of shipments and arrivals.
• Improvement of container rotation rate.
• More reliable use of containers.
IER holds a unique position on the market as a manufacturer and integrator of complete RFID solutions.
We have real experience in the implementing of closed-loop container follow-up applications based on RFID technology, having already put this technology into use with major players in the logistics and distribution field.
