Opening new opportunities with Smart Solutions

Smart-label packaging is “the next big thing”, with many new opportunities for label converters. The Smart Solutions portfolio from Avery Dennison helps to make the most of your existing capabilities, and means you can exploit new state-of-the-art technologies such as RFID inlays

Potential smart applications are diverse, and can involve everything from an individually printed code through to self-contained data loggers in a disposable self-adhesive label. They add value to packaging in many ways, for example by allowing access to the ‘Internet of Things’ (IoT), or by giving consumers a simple way to confirm that a product is authentic. There are four main areas where smart labelling technology allows converters to add value to their customers’ businesses:

Content communication

A label can give consumers recipe suggestions, help businesses to drive logistics efficiency, and much more. Digital labels also help you create timely, personal messages, using fast changeovers and variable information printing.

Replenishment

Use smart labelling to tell consumers or businesses that something has run out and needs replacing – from a single bottle to an entire empty warehouse shelf. RFID can enable 99% inventory accuracy.*

Product expiration

Help your customers to transform monitoring of expiration dates - with commercial benefits that include first-in-first-out stock management. One example is TT Sensor Plus™ 2 - a label around one-third the size of a credit card that logs and stores temperature data for uploading to a smartphone. It replaces bulky and expensive conventional data loggers.

Product Authentication

Smart packaging is increasingly used to show that products are genuine, and have not been tampered with. In the pharma segment, you can ensure compliance with Falsified Medicines Directive 2011/62/EU, Article 54 (o) (see more on Pharma brand protection), or you can help in other segments to protect high value products such as wines, with measures that include serialization.

Full technical support means that smart labelling applications are easy to achieve. Ask about the best choice of material for a specific application, or find out more by arranging a visit to the Avery Dennison I.Lab innovation centre for hands-on experience.
