Many OEMs and service providers estimate annual returnable packaging losses of at least 6-12%. Using the SmartX HUB System with RFID tags provided by Green will help your company prevent loss and reduce costs, while increasing efficiency and accuracy. Container tracking with SmartX HUB provides lots of benefits by: - Time Savings - of the most significant operational benefits of RFID technology is the ability to read multiple tags at once, with the option to detect assets upon arrival instantly. Rather than having to scan each barcode individually and line the label up with the scanner, RFID works on proximity, allowing you to read a case lot of containers or pallets in a fraction of the time.

- Reduced Human Error and Low Labor Requirements - Human error is almost eliminated with the intuitive nature of RFID systems. So long as the tags are within range of the reader and there is no outside interference from the environment, RFID technology reliability tracks your assets every time.

- RFID-enabled asset management also requires far less labor than manual or barcode-only checks. Especially with higher-end RFID tags and fixed readers, RFID asset management is the closest thing to a fully automated tracking solution.

- Easy Integration and Updates - RFID can work with many existing systems, allowing you to integrate RFID systems into your supply chain easily. You can also choose to adopt RFID technology at certain locations, to begin with, then add on additional locations at your own pace.

- Durability - depending on the construction of the tags, RFID tags can be extremely durable and withstand exposure to the sun, rain, and other harsh weather conditions. This makes them ideal for various applications, such as asset tracking, stock management, etc.

- Higher Security - RFID technology offers a higher level of security than barcodes, which helps prevent the spread of sensitive information. For example, RFID tags are more difficult to counterfeit than barcodes. This makes them a more secure option for tracking items and protecting against fraud. RFID tags can also be read farther away than barcodes, making them more efficient for tracking large quantities of items. Overall, RFID provides a higher level of security and efficiency than barcodes, making it a better choice for businesses and organizations that must protect their sensitive information.

- Higher ROI - for many applications and use cases, RFID implementation can lead to a significant ROI when properly specified according to the requirements of your application. Environmental constraints, asset compositions, and read range limitations/requirements can impact how effective, and cost-efficient an RFID system is for your application. While RFID is considered the latest and greatest evolution in asset management, it may not be right for every application, especially if you're expecting a certain ROI in a specific time window.
