Some of the features include holography (specialized coating that embeds images that can include messages, barcodes, photographs, etc.), taggants (microscopic, traceable, anti-counterfeit technology), serialization, color shift, forensic features (features printed with reactive ink that can be coded to work only with select pens), tamper evident technology, and substrates.
Dr. Narendra R. Srivatsa, Business Development Manager/Brand Authentication says, "The strength of these products lies in their ability to be simply integrated into existing processes, while helping to safeguard the brand recognition of the manufacturer and promote healthy lives for their customers."

HF LaundryChip(tm) by Datamars SA
Datamars SA is an RFID provider for the textile rental industry and creator of the LaundryChip(tm)— a washable, reusable tag that can be affixed to rental clothing as it is being cleaned industrially. The new model, the T-BT1315 Multi Read, is 15 mm in size, compared with the older 22 mm T-BT1320 product. It is ISO15693/ISO18000-3 compliant and has a frequency of 13.65 MHz. The LaundryChip(tm) is available with an assortment of various types of antennas and readers, can withstand at least 100 wash cycles, and is designed to accommodate many market applications including textile rental and dry cleaning.
The smaller size tag was created in reaction to a market search for a smaller high performance laundry tag. The T-BT1315 has a reading distance of up to 40 cm—nearly as powerful as many competitive offerings in the larger size tag range. Visit www.datamars.com.

Accraply Inc. Introduces Gen 2 Labeling Systems
Accraply Inc., a designer and manufacturer of pressure sensitive labeling equipment, recently completed modifications to its RFID-embedded labeling systems, making them Gen 2 compliant.
The Gen 2 modifications have been successfully tested with 2" x 4" labels equipped with Impinj;s Monza ICs. The Gen 2 compliant automated applicators are capable of reading, writing, printing, and applying tags at speeds of 20 to 40 per minute. Good tags are printed with the EPC smart labels and applied to the product, while the Quiet Tag Reject removes defective tags from the production stream and places them back onto the waste liner.
The applicators also have a unique feature that allows the print head to lift over the RFID chip, preventing damage to the chip and print head. The foil save feature prevents transfer film waste on unprinted areas of the label. The company currently has six automatic Gen 1 RFID labeling systems in operation. All future systems will be shipped Gen 1 and Gen 2 compliant. The cross-vendor capability of the 96-bit Gen 2 tags makes Accraply's system operational on all Gen 2 products. Visit www.accraply.com.
