IoT Solutions | RFID Tags & Labels SML Group’s robust offering of RFID tags and labels are trusted by the top fashion brands and many of the largest retailers in the world. In 2018, SML produced 1.4 billion RFID tags for retailers. Every RFID inlay can be programmed to electronically store information including product type, size, color and various other identification and Tracking features. All of our RFID tags work seamlessly across SML products and software, offering faster and more efficient product Authentication, reducing the risk of lost or counterfeit products, and resulting in complete visibility across the global supply chain in real time. Clarity? Technology All-in-One Retail Software Solution Clarity? is our proprietary RFID item-level inventory management solution that provides faster, easier inventory execution, increasing both retail supply chain and individual store efficiency as well as integrating with your existing ERP or business intelligence systems. The complete Clarity? 3.X suite contains all the functionality needed to improve supply chain efficiency and inventory management. It has been designed to enable full operational control and new inventory management processes based on years of in-store RFID experience. | Today, there is a very diverse product range. In 2013, Structobond® was launched, a new technology which offers permanent identification. In addition, the company also continuously expanded the RFID label segment. Customers from many different sectors worldwide now depend on the reliable and innovative identification systems supplied by S+P Samson GmbH. RFID technology offers new options. For the optimisation of logistical processes. To stand still means to regress. S+P Samson started working with modern RFID technology intensively at an early stage, developing intelligent and practical data carriers featuring the Robustness for which the company is known across the world. At the time, the labels were tailored to the metal industry, but today they are increasingly used in all sectors in which automated identification is the state of the art. The label as a data carrier and transmitter. Usually, the “young” RFID technology is used together with conventional information that can be read by humans – i.e. normal labels. They are data carriers for theworkers, the integrated transponder is simultaneously used for automation. Simple and efficient. Today, RFID technology can be used in industrial environments without any problems. Software solutions ensure that when products and/or packages are separated, multiple capture is eliminated. Better to be safe. And more efficient. Data capture without visual contact. The great advantage of RFID technology is clear: reading data at distances of up to 8 metres without visual contact. RFID labels by S+P Samson enable the automatic data capture and checking of material movements by crane or fork lift truck.
