Overview

ID-L5012: slim sew-in UHF RFID laundry tag for uniforms and scrubs

The ID-L5012 is a 50 × 12 mm UHF RFID laundry tag made to be stitched in. At 12 mm wide it slips into a hem channel or along a side seam, which is where uniforms, hospital scrubs and patient gowns are usually tagged so the tag stays protected and out of the wearer's way. It uses the NXP UCODE 9xe chip and reads at up to 8 m, depending on the reader and environment.

Typical deployment

  1. Encode. Write an EPC to each tag on a UHF desktop reader and link it to the garment or wearer.
  2. Sew. Stitch the tag into the hem or seam, keeping the needle clear of the chip.
  3. Track. Count items in and out of the laundry with a handheld, tunnel or portal reader.

With this in place, a hospital or uniform supplier can see which department holds which garments and spot items that stop coming back. Our RFID laundry and linen guide walks through a full workflow.

Related sizes

If you heat-press rather than sew, the ID-L5012-I is the iron-on version of this size. For heavier linen with more room, a wider tag such as the ID-L5815 (58 × 15 mm) gives more antenna area.

Typical applications

  • Hospital scrubs
  • Patient gowns
  • Staff uniforms
  • Industrial workwear
  • Bed sheets
  • Laundry sorting

Frequently asked questions

Where is a 50 × 12 mm sew-in laundry tag typically used?
It is stitched into uniforms, scrubs, bed sheets and other linen. The narrow, flexible form fits neatly into hems and seams, so it does not bulge or catch during wear or ironing.
What is the read range of the ID-L5012?
Up to 8 m, subject to the reader antenna and environment. In a sorting hall, actual range depends on tag orientation, how tightly items are packed and nearby metal.
Will it work with my existing UHF reader and printer?
Yes. It works with standard UHF RFID readers and printers, handheld or fixed. It covers 860–960 MHz, which includes India's 865–868 MHz band, so no reader change is needed in most cases.
Can I mix it with other ID-L tags in one system?
Yes. All ID-L tags are EPC Gen2 UHF tags, so one reader and one database can handle different sizes. Choose the size per item type and key your software on the EPC number.
