Abbott Label showcases RFID capabilities

As converters explore new ways to boost their business, RFID labeling has emerged as a popular option. The technology has moved past the phases of acceptance and affordability. Plus, brands are increasingly requesting these label technologies be implemented into their operations.

Big brands have led the drive for these products, as they have recognized the inherent value of the technology.

“The RFID industry has been growing rapidly in the last five plus years due to many large retailers/big box stores adopting RFID technology for the products they sell,” explains Mark Davenport, RFID business unit manager, Abbott Label. “Not only are the large retailers using this technology, there are also a few large fast-food chains that have adopted the technology to help better manage their incoming supplies. Major airlines and airports around the globe are also contributing to this growth. RFID is the fastest growing sector in the label business today.”
