About the ECO RFID Paper Tag 1642 H10
Retailers under pressure to take plastic out of packaging still need a tag on every piece of merchandise. The ID-1642 eco RFID paper tag answers that with a recyclable, printable paper construction: it runs through a standard UHF RFID printer and slots into swing tickets, price tags and carton labels without changing how those are produced. The H10 chip inside gives reads of up to 7 m depending on antenna and environment, which covers handheld cycle counts on the shop floor as well as a fixed reader at the stockroom door. The substrate is thin and flexible enough for flat and gently curved surfaces, and RoHS-compliant materials keep the tag acceptable in export retail programmes.

Mounting, encoding and reading notes
Print the barcode, price and article code while the EPC is written in the same pass, and use SGTIN-96 if the goods will sell through organised retail. Paper needs a little care: store rolls away from damp, and never fold the tag through the antenna area. String or stick it clear of foil bags, metallic trims and stacked liquid-filled items, or the range collapses; on a garment with metal buttons, keep the tag on the fabric side. Trial one tag on the actual product before committing to a full run.
Why buy from Identium
The ID-1642 is produced in India for the 865-868 MHz band, which European and UK retailers can read on their existing ETSI 865-868 MHz equipment, so a single tag covers domestic and export orders. Label converters and brands are quoted bulk and OEM prices, can have serial ranges pre-encoded before despatch, and receive free samples for print trials on their own machine.

Frequently asked questions
What is the ECO RFID Paper Tag 1642 used for?
The ID-1642 is an eco paper-faced UHF RFID label used for inventory management, asset tracking and supply chain visibility. Built on the H10 chip, it reads up to 7 metres depending on the reader and environment, and its thin flexible substrate applies cleanly to cartons, files, apparel tickets and retail packaging.
Can this RFID paper label be printed and encoded on a normal RFID printer?
Yes, the ID-1642 UHF RFID paper label is compatible with all standard UHF RFID readers and printers, so it can be overprinted with barcodes, logos or serial numbers and encoded in the same pass. India RFID Store can also supply the labels pre-printed and pre-encoded before shipping.
Will this paper RFID tag work on metal or liquid?
No, standard paper RFID labels such as the ID-1642 do not read reliably when applied directly to metal or to liquid-filled containers, because both detune the antenna. For metal assets, use a dedicated on-metal UHF tag, which India RFID Store stocks alongside its paper label range in India.
What is the price of ECO RFID paper tags in India?
The price of the ID-1642 eco UHF RFID paper tag in India depends on the order quantity and on whether printing or encoding is required, so check the listed price or request a bulk quote. Bulk and OEM pricing with pan-India shipping is available from India RFID Store.
