RFID tags for pallets
THE PALLET LOOPÂ will fit an RFID tag to every reusable green pallet it produces, in a move that is set to generate huge amounts of data about the movement of pallets and associated building materials nationwide as they pass through the supply chain.
Equipping each of its pallet with an RFID tag, containing a small chip, will give The Pallet LOOP the ability to scan pallets in and out of its production and collection sites nationwide. For The Pallet LOOP, this investment will give the business accurate, up to date information about the number of pallets issued to customers and, more importantly, collection and recovery rates. For users of The Pallet LOOP, the information will also offer insights about the financial and carbon savings they are achieving. The Pallet LOOP’s RFID technology is being supplied by MiTEQ – a specialist business providing fully integrated automation and tracking solutions using RFID technology. The Pallet LOOP has ordered more than a million tags for the circular economy pallets it is producing, which are due to hit the building materials supply chain in the coming months.
