RFID Wet Inlay

Why RFID Wet Inlays are a Popular Choice

RFID wet inlays are widely used due to their:

• Adhesive backing for fast application
• Compatibility with various materials and surfaces
• Streamlined deployment for item level tagging
• Broad use in inventory management, logistics, and supply chain management
• Support for passive RFID technology
• Compliance with EPC Class 1 standards

Should You Choose a Wet Inlay or Dry Inlay?

Choosing between a wet inlay and a dry inlay hinges on key application factors:

Adhesion Requirements

If you require instant adhesion to a surface, an RFID wet inlay with adhesive backing provides a ready-to-use solution. This is especially useful for labels, packaging, or tags used in inventory or logistics operations.

Integration Complexity

Dry inlays offer greater customization for embedding within specific materials, while wet inlays are easier to apply directly. For streamlined manufacturing, a wet RFID inlay is often preferable.

Application Environment

Environments exposed to moisture or temperature fluctuations may benefit from wet inlays because of their secure adhesion and excellent performance on various surfaces.

Deployment Speed

When deployment speed is critical—like in large-scale inventory management or supply chain rollouts—a wet RFID inlay ensures fast and efficient application.

Cost Considerations

While wet inlays may come with slightly higher initial costs due to the adhesive layer, they reduce labor time. Dry inlays, though more labor-intensive, can offer cost effectiveness in high-volume or embedded applications.
