AD-Belt U9 Pure™ [UHF RFID tag and inlay]

Compact size, high performance and sustainable in item level tagging

Industry segments: Apparel and Fashion, Industrial Applications

Our AD Belt U9 Pure™ inlays and tags are designed for global retail, industry and supply-chain applications, offering excellent performance on difficult-to-tag or low-detuning materials such as cardboard and plastic, and in other demanding, close-coupling environments.

Sustainability
The AD Belt U9 Pure™ is produced via innovative antenna manufacturing technology where aluminum antenna is made directly on a paper substrate. Inlays and Tags using this antenna are 100% plastic free, and according to an LCA (Life Cycle Analysis) study by an independent institute provide typically 70-90% savings in carbon footprint compared to traditional etching method. The innovative manufacturing process also enables other benefits, such as recycling excess materials and reducing the total amount of materials while maintaining the overall performance of the product. The impact of the Pure™ paper-based inlays and tags in cardboard recycling has been verified by a third-party laboratory in the EU against PTS-RH 021:97/2012. In the US, the hangtag construction is certified by West Michigan University against SBS-E Part I (repulpability) and Part II (recyclability). How2Recycle® has “pre-qualified¹” the RFID construction when applied to a paper hangtag and determined that the structure is eligible  for a widely recyclable label.   

Application
AD Belt U9 Pure™ inlays and tags have a compact 73 mm / 2.8 inch form factor, which can be easily converted into end-application usage, and are available in dry, wet and label delivery formats. Belt equipped with NXP UCODE 9 offers 96-bit of EPC memory. Furthermore, it offers a self adjust feature to maximize product performance in challenging environments and has an improved read and write sensitivity and faster encoding speed compared to NXP UCODE 8.

Quality
Avery Dennison inlays and tags are compliant with ISO 9001:2015 Quality Management and ISO 14001:2015 Environmental Management, which ensure a reliable and state-of-the-art product that meets a variety of application needs, especially in the retail environment.
