HID Global Reinforces Leadership In Waste Management Solutions With Expanded RFID Portfolio
Company Adds New Bin Tag UHF and Bin Tag HDX to Its Industry-Leading Family of Solutions for Increased Efficiency in Waste Programs and Recycling
HID Global, trusted leader in solutions for the delivery of secure identity, reinforces its leadership in radio-frequency identification (RFID) solutions for waste management with the addition of its new Bin Tag UHF and Bin Tag HDX. The products expand the company's extensive portfolio of tag offerings that enable city governments, waste removal contractors, and their residential and commercial customers to optimize efficiencies in their waste management and recycling processes. The new bin tags are compatible with waste management standards for UHF (US Frequency) or HDX.
"RFID waste management technology is becoming increasingly important as new eco-friendly approaches to waste operations gain momentum, and interest in developing more effective recycling processes is on the rise, said Marie-Françoise Glotz, vice president of Industry and Logistics with HID Global. "HID Global is committed to providing the most robust RFID solutions in the industry, and the addition of the new bin tags to our portfolio offers communities a complete set of solutions to meet the wide range of growing waste management requirements."
The company's UHF and HDX Bin Tags, the latest additions to its line of RFID tags for waste management, are highly water, chemical and shock resistant and fit into the standard DIN 30745 tag nest of most plastic bins. Featuring a passive contactless transponder designed to communicate with a reader via RFID technology, the new tags are also easy to insert and hard to remove. They can be pre-installed or used for retrofitting existing bins.
HID Global's complete line of RFID solutions for Waste Management:
The new Bin Tag UHF is compliant with EPCglobal-certified UHF Gen 2 readers and modules, and offers a significantly higher read-range than low frequency bin tags and features a small form factor with 512 bits user memory, 96 bits EPC number with anti-collision functionality, fast data rate communication and a large read range for its small size fulfilling DIN 30745.
The new Bin Tag HDX is fully compliant to existing HDX waste management solutions and is an ideal solution for supplementing existing HDX waste management systems without requiring any changes to the deployed infrastructure. HID Global programs the Bin Tag for immediate use according to customer specifications.
HID's Epoxy Disc tags and IN Tags are perfect for encapsulation during bin manufacture or for screw-on application to bins already deployed.
The Plug Tag is ideal for bins where a small, plug-in form factor is required.
For large, industrial containers, HID's InLine™ product family of on-metal UHF tags are highly robust to screw or weld into place for all waste management applications where a high read-range is key simply due to container size.
