Rugged and reliable RFID drug tags

Supply chain connectivity and integrity are two hot topics in the pharmaceutical industry, and Schreiner MediPharm will address this at Pharmapack this year.

Pharmaceutical labeling experts will showcase a special product innovation: from production to end use, reliable RFID tags provide reliable end-to-end functionality.

The company said that installing RFID tags on pharmaceutical products and medical devices can generate smart devices that help optimize processes and improve ease of use and safety.

The robustness and reliability of RFID tags is a prerequisite for achieving these goals at all stages of processing and throughout the supply chain. This enables interaction between users and pharmaceutical manufacturers and communication between products and medical devices :. The key to ensuring robustness is the design of the label.

The new rugged RFID tag from Schreiner consists of a tag-integrated RFID tag that is fixed by the tag's special structure. Therefore, potential damage to RFID chips, such as mechanical shock during manufacturing and handling, can be avoided. This guarantees the best end-to-end performance of RFID chips from production to end use, especially on round containers with narrow radii.
