AD Force U9 Pure 95™ [UHF RFID tag and inlay]

UHF RFID Inlay: AD ForceU9 Pure™

Combining performance and versatility

Industry segments: Apparel & Fashion, Other Retail

AD Force U9 Pure 95™ from Avery Dennison Smartrac is a high performing inlay suitable for a wide variety of RFID tagging applications. It features the UCODE 9 chip by NXP. The applications, including apparel and general retail. 

Sustainability
AD Force U9 Pure 95™ is produced via innovative antenna manufacturing technology where the aluminum antenna is made with pure aluminum, replacing the PET aluminum laminate traditionally used in standard antenna production. By eliminating the plastic-based layer, the total inlay construction is up to 95% plastic-free in both wet inlay and label formats. A minimal amount of plastic strap is used for the memory chip attachment. According to an LCA (Life Cycle Analysis) study by an independent institute the innovative manufacturing technology provides typically 70-90% savings in carbon footprint compared to traditional etching methods. 

The manufacturing process also enables recycling excess materials and reducing the total amount of materials while maintaining the overall performance of the product. The impact of the Pure 95™ 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 Force U9 Pure 95™ feature 96-bit of EPC memory as well as a 96-bit unique factory locked TID number. A 48-bit unique serial number is factory-encoded into the TID. Delivery formats include wet and label. AD Force U9 Pure 95TM has passed ARC category Spec Q, F, G, I, K, L, N, R, Y, W1, W2, W3, W4, W5, and W6.

Quality
