Checkpoint Systems, Inc. (NYSE:CKP), a leading global supplier
of merchandise availability solutions for the retail industry,
today announced at RFID Journal Live its new Slim and Whisper RFID
labels for Health/Beauty/Cosmetics Categories. These
categories have specific inventory management challenges based on
their small size, SKU complexity and densely packed merchandising
displays.
The Slim is offered with a label size of 88x7mm and integrated
with the latest Impinj® Monza® R6 chip. It has been optimized for
performance with all of Checkpoint’s RAIN (standing for RA-dio
frequency I-dentificatio-N) RFID solutions, including its RFID EAS
Overhead Solution, the EVOLVE® E10 Exclusive pedestal and other
Merchandise Visibility solutions. The Slim tags can be applied over
the packaging of numerous health/beauty/cosmetics products and are
tamper proof.
The Whisper is offered with a label size of only 12x12mm and
integrated with the Monza R6 chip. It is the smallest form factor
in its category and comes with removable adhesive so that no marks
are left on cosmetics products.
“We are excited to see Checkpoint driving always-on inventory
management solutions using the Slim and Whisper labels with our
Monza R6 chip featuring AutoTune™,” said Craig Cotton, VP of
Marketing and Product Management at Impinj. “We look forward to a
continued partnership with Checkpoint to enable new solutions and
tagging of new categories of items. The Monza R6 chip includes
Integra technology that enables RAIN RFID labels to deliver higher
data reliability and accuracy, which is a must for retail
deployments.”
According to Uwe Sydon, Senior Vice President of Innovation,
Checkpoint Systems, “Major retailers have expressed a strong
interest in expanding RAIN RFID categories to include
Health/Beauty/Cosmetics categories and the new RAIN RFID tags
specifically designed for these products will help achieve the
goals of auto replenishment and inventory management.”
Slim and Whisper RFID labels are available immediately.
