RFID Tags
LinTRAK tags are discreet, durable RFID transponders applied directly to textiles to track high-volume, commercially laundered linens, towels, and garments. They can be sewn in or heat-sealed by the manufacturer or end user.
Managing linens and uniforms manually presents serious challenges for organizations such as hotels and resorts, convention centers, hospitals and more — anywhere cleanliness, availability and accountability are critical to operations. Without automation, textile inventory is difficult to manage and increasingly expensive, especially as the cost of quality materials rises.
Manual linen and uniform management is slow, error-prone, and costly for organizations such as hotels, casinos, and commercial laundries. Reliance on paper logs, spreadsheets, and physical counts leads to losses from wear and tear, theft, and laundry errors—while making it difficult to accurately track usage or verify laundry bills.
RFID-based systems automate inventory tracking, reduce labor and physical strain, and minimize errors across the linen and uniform lifecycle, improving staff efficiency and customer satisfaction.
HID’s RFID platforms—the Acuity Platform for linen management and the InvoTech Platform for uniform management and linen inventory—deliver real-time visibility into item location, status, and lifecycle. Together, they help organizations reduce replacement costs, improve operational efficiency, and transform textile management into a data-driven operation.
Lowers operating costs by reducing labor, minimizing inventory loss and optimizing textile usage
Enables real-time inventory visibility to prevent overstock, shortages and missing items
Streamlines laundry workflows to speed delivery and inventory processing while improving accuracy
LinTRAK tags are discreet, durable RFID transponders applied directly to textiles to track high-volume, commercially laundered linens, towels, and garments. They can be sewn in or heat-sealed by the manufacturer or end user.
RFID tag readers come in various forms, including tabletop readers, handheld devices, conveyor stations, and cabin stations. They enable automated registration, sorting, and counting of linens and uniforms as they move through inspection points through their lifecycle—providing continuous visibility while reporting accurate inventory counts, cycle usage, and reorder points.
At the heart of the system, specialized software transforms RFID data into complete, actionable visibility across the linen or uniform lifecycle. The software delivers:
Intuitive reports and dashboards powered by real-time RFID data
End-to-end visibility into linen and uniform movement and usage
Actionable analytics that enable proactive, data-driven decision-making
Together, these capabilities help organizations optimize inventory, reduce losses, and improve operational efficiency.
Handheld readers can be used to swiftly and easily check-in and inventory assets ensuring a correct inventory count at all times to ensure maximum guest satisfaction.
