Today’s Internet culture has created a breeding ground for data, to say the least. We’re drowning in all manner of electronic data, from facts and figures to multimedia.
“Big Data” has become big business, thanks to improved efficiency and profitability enabled by informed business decisions. This principle applies to the field of life sciences as well.
However, a particular challenge for companies in life sciences is the ability to collect, store and access critical data from devices that are subject to extreme sterilization conditions.
For this reason, Tego’s high-memory RFID solutions have garnered fresh attention from top life sciences companies. These companies understand that data needs to be reliably and permanently linked to each tracked asset in order to accurately trace them through the entire supply chain — including sterilization, transportation, distribution and dissemination to the patient in hospitals.
Tego’s high-memory TegoTag Inlays offer the performance and durability needed to survive gamma, ebeam and autoclave sterilization processes. This means that Tego RFID tags and labels can be attached to medical devices or biologics, as well as shipping boxes, prior to irradiation, saving time and money while ensuring manufacturing quality and patient safety.
Pharmaceutical companies are also showing interest in our high-memory chips and tags to have the capability to store all UDI, GS1 manufacturing information on the product itself. The RFID tag can be securely read and written to downstream by authorized personnel when critical supply chain events occur, or if changes in the products’ status are necessary, as in a soft recall.
