How RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technology has brought a significant change in inventory management and asset tracking in real time in various industries, including the laundry and textile industry. With the use of UHF (Ultra-High Frequency) RFID readers and sensor antenna technology, textile service providers can easily manage their workwear inventory and assets through a flexible storage solution. RFID tags can be attached to each item, and these tags can be read by the UHF RFID reader, which can scan and record the information on the tags from a distance. This technology allows textile service providers to track and monitor their inventory in real-time, which enables them to quickly identify any discrepancies or issues in their stock. It also enables them to optimize their inventory levels and streamline their operations, resulting in improved efficiency, reduced labor costs, and increased competitiveness in the market. Moreover, RFID technology can also help in preventing loss and theft of assets, as each item can be tagged and monitored, and any unauthorized movement of assets can be detected through the RFID system. Overall, the use of RFID technology has revolutionized inventory management and asset tracking in the laundry and textile industry, providing an efficient, cost-effective, and flexible solution for workwear management. Once unleashed, a dedicated RFID Internet of Things (IoT) solution will start to increase fundamentally any industrial laundry’s bottom-line. Optimise item utilisation rate: wash cycles and histories per item can become visible automatically, reducing the need for manual quality checks and unnecessary disposal of items at predetermined intervals. Reduce stock per customer: you will know where all of your items are and have full active and passive stock visibility per customer, which will enable you to reduce redundant stocks.
