ZBR2100-E
Paper-based RFID Inlay
Most RFID inlays are manufactured using aluminum which is chemically etched on a PET carrier and is not recyclable with the paper label it is applied to. By switching to paper-based RFID inlays, manufactured using antennas made by laser cutting technology, they are not only sustainable and 100% plastic-free, but they also offer less waste and up to 90% smaller carbon footprint compared to using PET materials. The ZBR2100-E is a paper-based RFID inlay that can help your business reach its sustainability goals. Designed with the latest high-sensitivity UCODE 9 chipset, the ZBR2100-E delivers a high read range of up to 19 meters.
The ZBR2100-E is a 100% plastic-free, paper-based inlay with laser cut antenna, saving resources during manufacturing such as water, energy and greenhouse gases. When combined with fiber-based materials such as paper packaging, it may not* need to be removed for the packaging to be recycled, reducing the amount of waste going into landfill.
Designed with the latest high sensitivity UCODE 9 chipset, the ZBR2100-E can deliver high read ranges of up to 19 meters.
The paper inlay is thinner than typical PET inlays. When combined with an appropriate face material and label, such as the Z-Select 2000T, the ZBR2100-E can contribute to providing a tamper-evident labeling solution.
Printing supplies can impact everything from printhead lifespan to operational efficiency. That’s why we design, produce and rigorously test our own line of thermal printing supplies to ensure consistent, optimized performance. We utilize an ISO 9001 certified, 23-point quality inspection to ensure consistent quality. No matter when you order your labels you can count on the same great performance.
Reduce plastic usage with the paper-based ZBR2100-E RFID Inlay.
