About the RFID Asset tags

The ID-Asset is a hard-cased UHF RFID asset tag built for the equipment that must stay on your register year after year: IT hardware, tools, machinery, furniture and infrastructure. Its ABS or PC enclosure is impact and moisture resistant, so the tag survives daily industrial and office handling and keeps returning accurate reads for years without maintenance. Ferrite-backed on-metal variants take care of racks, machine bodies and hand tools, while adhesive, screw-hole and cable-tie mounting cover everything else. For Indian buyers running annual audits across many locations, these UHF RFID asset tags turn a week of clipboard checking into a walk-through with a handheld reader.

Best-fit applications

• IT asset management in banks, IT parks and BPO floors: laptops, servers, monitors and printers
• Workshop and factory tool tracking, where hunting for a missing tool costs more than the tool
• Fixed asset registers for government departments, schools and hospitals facing annual audit
• Hotel FF&E and medical equipment that moves between floors, wards and theatres
• Plant and machinery mounted on steel frames, using the ferrite-backed on-metal variant
• Office furniture and infrastructure counts across multi-branch organisations

Mounting, encoding and reading notes

Fix the tag mechanically wherever it will live for years: a screw through the mounting holes on machinery and racks, the cable-tie loop on pipes, looms and tools, and the 3M adhesive only on a surface that has been cleaned and degreased first. On metal, use the ferrite-backed version or lift the tag on a plastic stand-off, because a plain tag flat on steel reads poorly. Tags can be pre-encoded and printed with your logo, barcode, QR or serial number before dispatch, so asset numbers match your register from day one.

Why buy from Identium

The ID-Asset is made at Identium's New Delhi plant, in production since 2015, and ships BIS and WPC certified for India while remaining ETSI 865-868 MHz compatible for export deployments. Bulk and OEM pricing, custom encoding and printing, and free samples to try on your own racks and machinery all come before you order in volume.

Frequently asked questions

What is an RFID asset tag and what is it used for?

An RFID asset tag is a hard cased UHF tag fixed to assets such as laptops, servers, tools, machinery and furniture so they can be counted and audited without opening cupboards or scanning barcodes one by one. India RFID Store asset tags use UHF 860 to 960 MHz on EPC Gen 2.

Do RFID asset tags work on metal equipment like IT racks?

Standard RFID labels do not read reliably on metal, so on metal variants with a ferrite backing are supplied for IT racks, tools and machinery. These on metal asset tags read normally when mounted directly on metal, while the standard version is used on plastic, wood and painted surfaces.

What is the read range of these UHF asset tags?

RFID asset tags from India RFID Store read at 1 to 6 metres depending on the environment and the reader used, which is enough to walk a handheld reader through an office or server room during an audit. Nearby metal, liquid and dense racking reduce the effective distance.

Can asset tags be printed with a logo, barcode and asset number?

Yes. RFID asset tags can be custom printed with a logo, barcode, QR code and serial or asset number, and pre encoded before dispatch. Mounting options include 3M self adhesive, screw holes and cable tie loops, and the tags are BIS and WPC certified Identium products made in India.
