“There’s no way to circumvent the system that we created,” Manley said. “This ensures product chain-of-custody.”
RFID Verification and Encoding
WS Packaging standardized one UHF Gen2 RFID inlay—comprised of an Impinj Monza chip, antenna, and a clear film substrate that is applied to a pressure-sensitive paper label. The RFID tags are produced, pre-encoded and tested at the WS Packaging facility in Algoma, Wis. The company enforces a thorough quality inspection process where each incoming roll of RFID inlays is checked for bad inlays. Each bad inlay is marked and later removed. In some instances, the bad inlay will be replaced on the roll. WS Packaging ensures that there are no duplicate inlays and that each is unique. Each finished tag is serialized and a log file is created for each one.
