Monday, February 1, 2010

Bairstow Lifting Products, manufacturer of rigging supplies and fall protection solutions, has implemented an innovative RFID inventory inspection and certification solution.

Tailored by UPM and Marnlen, the new system supplies Bairstow with two durable RFID options for both metal and non-metal applications. Tags can be mounted to a wide variety of surfaces including polyester, nylon, rope, wire and steel. The metal application utilizes special materials to preserve the RFID tags readability.

Serving numerous industries including construction and fire and rescue services, Bairstow will affix the low-profile, high-frequency RFID tags to all of its products to provide an efficient and accurate way for its customers to conduct inspection and certification processes.

Customers can use handheld RFID readers to scan tags in the field, further streamlining the certification process by eliminating the physical paperwork and human error associated with manual processes.

The durable tags are designed to withstand harsh environments where there is a high-volume of physical abuse, shock, UV radiation, temperature variability and moisture.
