We often hear about RFID technology in the media these days, and the obvious benefits it can bring to businesses in all sectors of industry. Here at Blue Planet Washing Solutions, we have embraced RFID in a major way, and it has enabled us to transform the services that we can offer our customers. If your organisation is yet to utilise RFID and all that it entails, it’s perhaps time for you to speak to our team.
RFID, or Radio Frequency Identification, is becoming increasingly influential in the events sector, a market in which it’s so important for businesses to know where their stocks happen to be. If your company is catering for a major event and you need extra plates, cups and cutlery, for example, would you have a clear understanding of what you have and where? And, crucially, would you be able to obtain them quickly and easily?
Thanks to RFID technology, the team at BPWS can monitor and track everything from single items right up to full pallets at very short notice. Offering services such as deliveries, collections, washing, drying, and storage, we are gaining recognition as a reliable choice for businesses seeking circular economy solutions. We offer complete peace of mind, a rare commodity in such a fast-paced industry.
In addition to knowing where your stock is located, with RFID technology you can also gain a clearer understanding of when and how they are used and re-used. In October 2023, a ban on single-use plastics was introduced which inevitably led to increased pressure on companies in the hospitality sector, so vital information like this can also help in accurately measuring carbon emissions data. Tracking information on all your returnables will give you an advantage over your competitors.
Other benefits of adopting RFID include:
For our larger customers, RFID has had a powerful impact on so many aspects of their business, including faster deposit returns, smarter distribution of cups, cost savings on logistics and a stronger understanding of what their end users are doing and when. In time, they have been able to build a vital database that has made their operations leaner, quicker and more proactive.
In the coming years, more and more businesses in this sector are expected to adopt RFID technology, so if you’d like to find out more about it, and what it can do for your company, why not contact our friendly, knowledgeable team?
