Confidex has announced its updated RFID tag families. From January 2013 onwards, the Carrier and Casey product families will be available with new enhanced designs and excellent RF performance with either Impinj Monza4QT or NXP G2iL ICs. Confidex offers also other IC versions on project basis. Casey family is reinforced with the newest member, Confidex Casey Slim. Additionally, Confidex Pino, the tag for wooden pallets, is updated.

Confidex Carrier product family is designed specifically for plastic asset identification. These assets include plastic crates and containers in automotive, food manufacturing or other industries, but also plastic IT and enterprise assets. Carrier products come with durable structure and the background adhesive is selected specifically to have a strong grip on low surface energy plastics such as high-density polyethylene (HDPE) and polypropylene (PP). Carrier products have also been tested successfully in pressure washing process. Carrier, Carrier Micro and Carrier Pro labels can be encoded and printed with common RFID printers.

Confidex Casey product family is designed for industrial RFID applications that require high quality RFID labels for the daily operations. The applicable use cases vary from supply chain and logistics case level tracking to work-in-process applications in which RFID is used for following up the product’s manufacturing stage. Confidex Casey Slim is the newest addition to the Casey family – the label is a narrow design RFID industrial label.

Confidex Pino is designed to enable cost-efficient and reliable tracking of wooden pallets, one of the main transit item platforms in use globally. This patent pending tag is also suitable for identifying similar wooden items from timber to finished structures.
