Thanks to their TPE housing, these flexible NFC Tags are particularly suitable for use in industrial and/or marine environments, and easily applicable to round or irregular surfaces, such as cylindrical containers, plastic tubes, helmets, or trees too. They are resistant to mineral oils, seawater, temperature fluctuations, vibrations and shocks.

These NFC Tags can be fastened securely with cable ties, industrial glue, rivet, nails or screws.

The NXP ICODE® SLIX chip complies with the ISO 15693 Standard and is compatible with iPhone and Android smartphones. Supports password-protection.

They can be supplied printed by laser engraving with the UID of the chip in barcode format. For custom graphics, or custom color, the minimum order is 20,000 pieces.

TPE (thermoplastic elastomer) is the same material used used worldwide to manufacture automobile pipes and hoses: it is able to tolerate repeated bending or torsion, while maintaining excellent performance characteristics. The durable casing protects the embedded electronics even in difficult conditions.

Customization

The personalization can contain logos, progressive numbers, variable data and QR codes. Graphic customization is carried out by laser engraving or UV LED printing.

• UV printing is full colour, fast and allows you to print even small quantities.
• Laserisation is particularly durable and characterized by its silver color (see images). Requires larger quantities and longer lead time.

These tags are not 'anti-metal', so they are not suitable for application on a metal surface or in close contact with a conductor material. Go to the On-metal flexible NFC Tags
