RFID TAGS AND LABELS ENABLE TRACKING SERVICE OF
RETURNABLE CONTAINERS
CHEP Pallecon Solutions has selected Confidex RFID tag and
label technology as part of CHEP-TRAC, its tracking service of
returnable containers. CHEP Pallecon Solutions’ containers
are being equipped with Confidex RFID tags and labels which create the vital and
reliable link for these physical returnable assets with the CHEP-TRAC cloud-based
solution.
CHEP, a Brambles company, is a supply-chain logistics company operating in more
than 50 countries, and specialises in the pooling of unit-load equipment and
associated services, focusing on the outsourced management of pallets, crates and
containers. Brambles primarily serves the consumer goods, dry grocery, fresh food,
retail and general manufacturing supply chains. In addition, the Group operates
specialist businesses serving the automotive, aviation and oil and gas sectors.
Brambles employs more than 14,000 people and owns approximately 500 million
pallets, crates and containers through a global network of approximately 850 service
centres.
AN EASY WAY TO REGISTER AND FOLLOW ASSETS ANYWHERE
When CHEP encountered challenges with their initial RFID tag provider, they
turned to Confidex to investigate and collaborate on the optimization of RFID tag
materials, adhesives, and performance to meet their unique needs.
The resulting solution developed by Confidex is an RFID tag that stays on even
the toughest surfaces for many years, withstanding the rigorous cleaning process
and extended usage. As CHEP manages
a large variety of returnable containers,
Confidex supplies CHEP with several
types of RFID tags and labels. CHEP, in
turn, is able to provide end-customers
with 4-in-1 identification which work
with virtually any tracking system
utilizing RFID, barcode, 2D data matrix,
or numerical identifiers. This enables CHEP customers – and their customers’
customers – to track assets all the way down the value chain, wherever they go
throughout multiple processes intertwined into one easy-to-use system.
“The CHEP collaboration represents our core expertise of enabling data to be
collected from our customers’ physical world assets for their various digitalized
Internet of Things systems. Reliable data is achieved by designing truly optimized
RFID tags and labels for the containers that face it all in the field and work
seamlessly wherever the containers are being used” comments Joe Hoerl, Sales
Director, North America for Confidex.
“Our partnership with Confidex has allowed CHEP to provide customers with
high-quality tags which are sure to stand up to the rigors of manufacturing
environments,” explained Keith Schall, Director of IT Global Containers BRM for
CHEP, “because of this superior tag quality, we are that much more confident in
our data integrity, which propels us toward the ultimate goal of complete asset
visibility for our customers.”
