• RFID Technology Advantages In Textiles Industrial

---

• Description :

Wireless monitoring and control applications have flourished thanks to Radio Frequency Identification (RFID) technology, which assigns a unique identifier to each product. With the advances of passive integrated circuit tags, which draw energy from the electromagnetic waves emitted by an interrogator, RFID applications have expanded to processes in harsh industrial environments. For textile products, such as in industrial laundries, the RFID system with passive RFID tags requires specific architectures and solutions. Therefore, new requirements have been set for designing passive RFID tags: they should be washable, wearable, durable, long-lasting and cost-effective.

• Why Use RFID Tags In Laundry Industrial?

Value for Laundries to use RAIN RFID

1, Reduce labor cost for sorting, counting
2, Reduce handling mistakes
3, Greater control over inventory
4, To have a full automatic traceability system
5, Increase of customer’s confidence
6, Automated accurate billing per item/type instead of weighing
7,  Reduce production cost with precise process monitoring

In healthcare, automatic garment dispenser might be requested and justified for hospital with more than 100 people. In such case RAIN RFID is the only option and the benefits are:
1,  Distribution 24h without personnel
2,  Better hygiene control
3,  Reduce losses and stock level
4,  Better monitoring of the daily needs (quantity, type of garments)

Value for Laundry’s Customers (e.g. Hotel)
1，Accurate billing per item/type instead of, estimated billing by weight
2， To avoid initial high investment for the garments, uniforms, mops, maps, flat linen
3，To benefit of a high visibility stock management following precisely their needs
4，To have a service for collecting the soiled articles
5，To benefit of on time delivery of clean articles, repaired and with hygiene quality control

Indirect benefits:
There is in all sectors world wide a strong trend to be more ecological and effort to reduce electricity, water, CO2 etc. Concentrating cleaning in high tech industrial laundry is the best way to reduce pollution.
A cleaning process in industrial laundry is much more ecological compared to cleaning at home.
1,  64% less water
2, 73% less energy
3, 90% less chemicals
4, 30% less CO2
5, 36% less Nox
