The challenges facing the packaging sector as retailers and brand owners gear up for RFID adoption, how the labelling sector has spearheaded
converter activity to date and how tags can be successfully incorporated into many different packaging types to provide maximum performance will be among key topics discussed at a major RFID conference and exhibition being hosted in London next May by Packaging Today's sister publication RFID Solutions.
Supported by leading UK e-commerce, barcoding and RFID organisation GS1UK, with whom RFID Solutions co-hosted a successful RFID conference at
Westminster last Summer, and a number of high-profile industry players, RFID Solutions 2006 will include an entire conference stream devoted to the challenges facing the packaging and manufacturing sector.
The 2005 event attracted over 250 delegates and 27 exhibitors, making it Europe¹s largest RFID-dedicated event. As with the inaugural event, high
profile personnel from a wide range of companies and organisations have been invited to speak, including Wal-Mart, Tesco, Virgin Airways, Kraft Foods, Germany¹s Metro Group, France's Carrefour, Procter & Gamble, Diageo, Eli Lilly, Oracle, Cambridge University, Rexam, Bemrose Booth, Precisia and the Auto-ID Lab.
