What is a PPS RFID laundry tag?

A PPS RFID laundry tag is a small disc that can “smartly track clothing”. It is particularly suitable for use in laundries, hospitals, hotels and other places to help staff quickly know the location, status and usage of each piece of clothing.

Its shell is made of a special plastic called “PPS” (polyphenylene sulfide). This material is very strong and is not afraid of high temperatures, water, or chemical cleaning agents. It will not break even after hundreds of washes.

Where is it mainly used?

PPS RFID laundry tags are widely used in various scenarios that require high temperature resistance, washability, and reusability:

Hotel and hospital laundries: Quickly identify towels, sheets, work clothes, etc. to prevent loss or mixing.

Factory workshops and car repairs: Identify fabrics or protective pads on high-temperature equipment.

Chemical plants: Track fabric materials exposed to corrosive environments.

Asset management: Manage clothing, equipment covers, etc. that need to be washed and reused.
