Revolutionizing Beer Keg Management with RFID Technology

RFID technology: Stop beer barrels from “disappearing”

The brewery has to deal with hundreds of beer barrels every day. These barrels need to be sent out, collected, cleaned, refilled… The process is very complicated. If a barrel is “lost” or you don’t know where it went, you will not only lose money, but it may also affect the quality of the beer. In the past, people used manual registration or barcode scanning to manage these barrels, but this method is too error-prone and inefficient.

Why is RFID the “clairvoyance” of beer barrels?

RFID tags are like putting a “talking little tag” on each beer barrel. It can tell you:

Whose barrel is this? What kind of beer is it filled with? When was it filled?

Where is the barrel now? Is it still on the way?

Has it been returned on time? Is it lost?

All this can be achieved by attaching an RFID tag (such as the 50×50mm tag we provide) to the barrel and installing a few readers in the factory, warehouse or distribution center.

Is the label quality good? Will it fall off?

he RFID tags we provide:

Optional materials: paper, PET, and labels designed specifically for metal barrels (On-Metal labels)

Strong adhesive backing: Use high-viscosity permanent glue, which is not easy to fall off even in refrigerated environments or humid weather

Support printing: Supports thermal or thermal transfer printing, suitable for printing numbers, brands and other information

These labels are not only strong, but also resistant to high temperatures and wear, and are especially suitable for places such as beer barrels that are “exposed to wind, sun and collision”.

Finally, let me summarize

Before, beer barrels were always lost, couldn’t be found or mixed up. Now, you can easily manage hundreds or thousands of barrels by attaching a small RFID tag. It not only tells you where the barrel is, but also helps you save thousands of dollars in losses each year.
