RFID Update: Xterprise Makes Multimillion RFID Tag Purchase

RFID solutions provider Xterprise today released the latest update on the RFID deployment it is managing for Intelligent Global Pooling Systems (iGPS), the all-plastic pallet pool startup. Xterprise has placed an order for 4.5 million RFID tags, which the company says represents one of the industry's bigger tag orders in recent history. "This is one of the largest single RFID tag orders that the industry has seen in three years," said Xterprise founder and CEO Dean Frew.

There were three suppliers chosen for the tags: Alien, Avery Dennison, and Zebra. "The RFID tag is an integral part of iGPS's data capture system," said Frew. "Selecting the right tag ensures accuracy and integrity of the inventory management system, which ultimately determines the resulting business value."
