Warehouse operations play a vital behind-the-scenes role in ensuring on-time delivery to customers. Good warehouse management ensures all warehouse processes are efficient and accurate in running the day-to-day operations of a warehouse. This ensures a fast, high-quality service at a low cost. To simplify the complexity of managing a warehouse, a software solution known as a warehouse management system (WMS) is used. Then how can BioPaper be used in warehouse management?
RFID labels
RFID labels made of BioPaper can be used in the warehouse management system to improve efficiency. These labels make rapid self-recording of receiving and delivery as the RFID transmits identity in the form of a unique serial number of a product wirelessly. RFID labels, a type of auto-ID technology, improve real-time data accuracy which reduces time and labor. Unlike other RFID labels, BioPaper RFID labels are waterproof which is a plus if the goods are covered in ice. The RFID labels improve visibility into the warehouse management system which increases profit.
How do BioPaper RFID labels work?
Keeping track of goods in a warehouse is time and labor-consuming. To ease the situation, BioPaper RFID labels can be implemented to improve information management concerning goods flow. The BioPaper RFID label is an RFID inlay embedded into BioPaper. BioPaper RFID labels in conjunction with a WMS is an excellent real-time business tool that covers goods checking, entry, picking, and delivery which helps better manage supply chains. Label makers use inlays supplied on a reel of continuous web to embed RFID functions into labels. The labels are used to track the location of each product. For warehouse management, the RFID labels automatically and uniquely identify and track inventory assets. The RFID label is attached to a radio antenna that connects products to the internet for tracking purposes. Active RFID labels are used for large assets including warehouses. These labels are placed on products then information is accessed using a reader to pass it to a computer. The active BioPaper RFID labels are a bit expensive than passive RFID labels.
Importance of BioPaper RFID labels
BioPaper RFID labels in the warehouse allow visibility of accurate real-time information, the ability to plan product locations strategically, zero possibility of record losses, and allows fast locating of products.
Advantages of using BioPaper RFID label than traditional paper RFID label
- It’s waterproof
BioPaper RFID labels are 100% waterproof because the BioPaper labels are made of high-quality paper covered with PLA (polylactic acid) layer which is non-water soluble. Therefore, liquid or rain cannot impact the signal of the BioPaper RFID label.
- It’s more durable than traditional paper RFID label
Compared to the traditional RFID labels, the BioPaper RFID labels are more durable. They can withstand exposure to sun and rain. These labels cannot crack or break when exposed to heat.
- It’s tear-resistant
RFID labels are prone to be less visible due to constant handling in the warehouse. BioPaper RFID labels are extremely hard-wearing than traditional paper RFID labels making them more tear-resistant.
- It’s eco friendly
BioPaper RFID labels are eco-friendly because the raw materials used in production are 100% naturally derived. Also, disposing of the BioPaper RFID labels will not pollute the environment.
