eSeal RFID Solution

GRAND RAPIDS, Mich. and ZURICH, Switzerland, Jan. 26, 2016 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- eAgile Inc. (eAgile.com/eSeal), a global leader in radio frequency identification (RFID) technologies, announces the successful high-volume production launch of the eSeal heat induction solution. eSeal is the first turnkey solution engineered to integrate the benefits of RFID into the billions of caps and closures consumed by the over-the-counter pharmaceutical, nutraceutical, cosmetic and chemical manufacturers.

The production launch of eSeal follows pilot runs at multiple facilities where millions of RFID-enabled closures were introduced to the supply chain. "In today's world, consumers are demanding safety, especially as it relates to healthcare products. Similarly, brand owners and everyone in the supply chain want to provide the safest products possible. eSeal has proven to establish an unprecedented level of security and authenticity in one easy-to-implement solution," stated Gary Burns, CEO of eAgile. "Having deployed eSeal at a significant scale, a full array of supply-chain management benefits were provided from the visibility gained by item level tagging. In addition, we achieved the client's goals of anti-diversion and enhanced security."

Working as a stand-alone or in conjunction with current security technologies, eSeal integrates a uniquely encoded RFID inlay between the closure and the seal of the product. The final deliverable is a complete cap and seal which is easily substituted into current production equipment. eAgile's Integration services complete the system by installing RFID hardware and middleware software to provide relevant data to current ERP or data management applications at strategic locations throughout the supply chain.

"Customers are amazed at how quickly eAgile is able to integrate the eSeal solution within their facilities. The benefits are delivered and the business case is validated almost immediately. eAgile's tagline is 'RFID Made Easy' and we use this to guide our solutions development as well as our on-site integration strategy," explained Peter Phaneuf, President of eAgile. "eSeal does more than protect against counterfeiting and product diversion: it provides our clients the ability to refocus efforts back onto core business activities."

eSeal is proving invaluable to stakeholders at all levels and feedback is overwhelmingly positive. Real-time information gathered by the integrated system is used for anti-diversion applications, supply-chain management and product availability within distribution centers and retailers. eAgile is now focusing on enhancing brand interaction opportunities by linking consumers and their NFC-enabled smartphones to authentication-, expiration-, and dosing-information along with re-purchase and promotional opportunities.

eSeal is the latest technology release to leverage eAgile's intellectual property portfolio which includes eSync - a data management package controlling the synchronization of RFID encoding to printed barcodes and serialization at a market-leading 99.99975% accuracy - and over 20 other issued U.S. and international patents and filings. This commitment has led to industry-recognized milestones including one of the world's largest on-going RFID-based asset tracking programs.

eAgile Launches First Dual Frequency RFID Inlay

radio frequency identification

GRAND RAPIDS, Michigan and ZURICH, Switzerland, April 7, 2015 (SEND2PRESS NEWSWIRE) -- eAgile Inc., a global leader in radio frequency identification (RFID) technologies announced today their UHF and NFC multi-frequency DualWing(TM) family of inlays. The DualWing series is the first tag to seamlessly combine the benefits of UHF's global supply chain acceptance with the consumer engagement capabilities of NFC into a single tag design. The DualWing's innovative chip also incorporates the latest ISO standards of both frequencies to provide the most robust anti-counterfeiting and validation capabilities currently available.

A dual frequency tag has long been anticipated by the marketplace to unleash the full power of RFID. "By providing the tools that extend the RFID value chain to include the ability for brand owners to immediately interact with the end customer is a milestone event for the entire industry," stated Gary Burns, CEO of eAgile Inc. "The DualWing is the Swiss Army knife of RFID that delivers maximum utility to organizations with minimal impact to existing systems."

DualWing tag customers can expect to gain the following benefits:

Versatility. DualWing tags utilize a single chip sharing common memory blocks and the same unique ID allowing for information to be shared or updated by both UHF and NFC devices.

Performance. The UHF function of the DualWing allows for the longer read ranges and faster read/write cycles required of asset tracking and logistical applications while the NFC features allow for robust functionality and marketing applications using smartphones or near-field scanners.

Security. Enhanced security protocols of ISO 18000-63 and EPC Gen2 V2 utilized by the UHF interface combat counterfeiting and tag alteration while the NFC's ISO 14443A-3 standard and rolling access counter make the DualWing one of the most secure platforms available in either frequency.

"To combine all the benefits of UHF and NFC into a single chip tag is an elegant solution," expressed Peter Phaneuf, President of eAgile Inc. "To embrace the latest ISO standards for maximum security in both frequencies opens doors to opportunities beyond the retail applications originally targeted and into the pharmaceutical, nutraceutical and healthcare spaces."

The DualWing is the latest addition to eAgile's family of item level intelligence products, which includes software and hardware solutions engineered to capture valuable business data and engage with end customers through smartphones. The DualWing's full product line is scheduled for large-scale release in wet and dry formats during the third quarter of 2015 from eAgile's service bureau in converted formats with available customer specific print and encoding schemes.
