UPM Raflatac attends China International Internet of Things Expo
(UPM Raflatac, Shanghai, 20 August 2015) - The China International Internet of Things exhibition will be held at Shenzhen on 20-22 August 2015. IOTE is a high-level international event with full coverage of the entire Internet of Things industry chain, that focuses on showing comprehensive solution and successful application of Internet of Things. On stand A27-2 at the event, UPM Raflatac is showcasing self-adhesive label solutions for RFID electronic tags and e-commerce logistics labelling.
The RFID self-adhesive label for EAM requires high endurance. Ordinary rubber-based or acrylic products are prone to aging - especially under rigorous circumstances of coldness, high temperature and etc. UPM Raflatac's UV acrylic transfer adhesive RC 18 offers more stable and long-lasting performance, with better environmental and chemical resistance. The double-coated transfer adhesive label for RFID tagging and packaging applications from UPM Raflatac, such as UE/RC18/28/E9, combines the comprehensive cost and the work efficiency for the lamination process of the RFID tag, which facilitates better application to the RFID terminals. UPM Raflatac's interval coating technology also allows RFID tag manufacturers and end-users to customize the specification of the transfer film according to the size of DRY INLAY at UPM Raflatac sites to help reduce adhesion problems during RFID lamination process or adhesive bleeding in storage.
At IOTE, UPM Raflatac is also introducing a customized series of cover products, such as HA/RP5X/01/H0, with reliable performance of thermal transfer and printing as well as ingenious back adhesive cover to avoid disturbance from the RFID antenna, especially from HF during the bar code reading.
