Pliant has developed a solution for tamper-proofing pallets with RFID-enabled stretch fi lm. Pliant’s electricallyconductive stretch fi lm combined with PowerID’s specially-designed PowerG labels for tracking freight and high-value pallets may overcome the distinct limitations of barcode technologies, the limited performance of standard passive RFID, and the high cost of active RFID. Electrically connected to the stretch fi lm wrapped around a pallet, the PowerG label is readable by RFID readers when the stretch film is intact and the electrical circuit is closed. However, when the stretch film is tampered with, the circuit is broken, rendering the label unreadable and thereby alerting a supply chain manager to possible tampering.
