1 RFID RFID Becoming a Game-Changer in Apparel Adoption Entering the Age of Intelligent Apparel Labeling

2 RFID adoption in apparel industry APPAREL Improved tag pricing, ROI validation and desire for item-level tagging all point to broader and deeper industry momentum F RFID o since the first LATAM DEMO installation in GS1 Venezuela in 2004, mixing EPC and RF EAS functions in a innovative way into a Checkpoint EAS Liberty antennas; and the first operational RFID-EAS (EPC-IS / EAS) Checkpoint installation in Latin America of ends of 2010 in Carrefour Colombia; company adquiered later by Cencosud in that country.

THE KEY BENEFIT OF THE ITEM-LEVEL RFID, IS INCREASED INVENTORY VISIBILITY... BUT THERE ARE SO MANY APPLICATIONS FOR THIS RF TECHNOLOGY THAT IT IS JUST IMPOSSIBLE TO SAY WHAT IS THE TOP BENEFIT OF THE VISIBILITY BY RFID. Classic RFID inlay. noted in previous s s as of

4 The management system just have a 65 percent accuracy. With RFID you can get up to a 95% accuracy in the data collection system, improving all the supply chain procedure, the store resources, and the service to the customer at the moment to decide for a product. All that adding EAS security in the same process into the store, with the unique EAS RF+EPC Label. R with RFID applications in the supplying chain, from the manufacturing plant to the store, and more. these goals because it's an industry with unique characteristics as very high # of the actual market reality, a growing number apparel retailers and brandowners have implemented itemlevelpublicity pronounced their the inmediate future. "Due to the existence of a large quantity of textile confection companies in Latin America, the opportunities in LATAM are great for local garment producers and retailers with domestic and international sales goals, focused on improving solutions and productivity for their business.

5 APPAREL it is. time they can't s. end, RFID is all about retailers Now, with the different options of RFID (and RFID-EAS Labels), manufacturers and retailers can be more efficient than ever before adopting a technology for several solutions. apparel performance : the actual RFID's reading distance is about 15 feet with textile garment using good quality labels, and mixing the application with Radio Frequency EAS -all in a flexible and paper label-, the solution for tracking and security is just great!. This is the perfect solution. This is an important limitation of other EAS technologies, but a great success for the Radio Frequency EAS technology working with RFID. Of organization's t If you already have EAS Radio Frequency technology, the RFID implementation is substantially less expensive at the moment to analize and If you have other EAS technology than RF, your investment could be more expensive... The reason of that, it is simply: The scalable EAS RF systems and products can be upgraded to RFID in a very simple way, including the use of new EAS+RFID flexible labels for the textile products, using the same suppliers and manufacturers into the RF EAS Source Tagging programs, but now adding the RFID application to the EAS running use. This is one of the reasons why many retailers go for Radio Frequency EAS scalable solutions. If you are a textile manufacturer or a retailer, come to Radio Frequency technology and be ready for your next step in innovation and solutions for your business, and for your customers: RFID, Radio Frequency Technology. RFID + EAS FLEXIBLE LABEL BE READY FOR RFID Required TECHNOLOGY. sales lift to break even GET THE KEY BENEFIT OF THE ITEM- LEVEL RFID TRACKING, PLUS THE EAS RF SECURITY BY A SINGLE AND FLEXIBLE EAS+RFID DUAL LABEL SOLUTION.
