Stageforce Recommended Products and Atlas RFID

RFID readers and tags are supplied through a partnership with Atlas RFID Store. All tags are custom printed and encoded, it is the user’s responsibility to ensure your company name and number sequence are correct when ordering. The tags and reader ship directly from Atlas. Stageforce supplies and ships: clear plastic sleeves, fabric adhesive labels and the inventory tagging kit.

Tag Size, Type, Adhesion

RFID tags are embedded with an antenna to receive and respond to the radio frequency signal generated by the RFID Reader. The larger the tag the larger the antenna. A larger antenna increases the ability of the tag to be located by the reader. It is always best to use the largest tag possible on your products.

Metal, Glass products require special tags that are optimized for those products. These tags have a foam backing to separate the tag from the product increasing readability.

Regular RFID tags work well on most other products. Highly polished or textured products and some fabrics may need additional adhesive like the fabric adhesive labels.

It is important to protect the tag on products that you are going to use outside. We recommend using a clear plastic sleeve and zip tying it to the item.
