UHF RFID Silicone Laundry Tag Overview
UHF RFID silicone laundry tags are washable RFID tags designed for textile assets that require repeated laundering, handling and tracking. Compared with ordinary RFID labels, silicone laundry tags provide a soft, flexible and waterproof body that can be installed into garments, linen, towels, uniforms or fabric pouches.
CedaGlo UHF RFID silicone laundry tags support EPC Class 1 Gen 2 / ISO 18000-6C systems and are available in global UHF frequency ranges. They allow bulk reading of textile items without line-of-sight scanning, helping laundry operators count items faster, reduce shrinkage, track wash cycles and improve return accuracy.
These tags are suitable for hospitality laundries, healthcare textiles, industrial uniform rental, textile service operations, commercial laundries, dry cleaning, garment management and reusable textile asset tracking. Custom size, color, chip option, encoding, logo, serial number and packaging support are available for project-based applications.
Why the Market Uses UHF Silicone Laundry Tags
Laundry operators and textile service companies need to manage large quantities of linen, garments and uniforms across washing, drying, sorting, packing, delivery and return. Manual counting and barcode scanning are slow, error-prone and difficult to scale when textiles move across multiple sites.
UHF RFID silicone laundry tags help convert each textile item into a readable digital asset. They support faster inventory counting, better loss control, item-level traceability and improved visibility across the laundry workflow.
| Market Need | Explanation |
|---|---|
| Faster Inventory Counting | Bulk-read large quantities of linen or uniforms to reduce manual counting time. |
| Reduced Linen Losses | Accurate item tracking helps prevent loss, shrinkage and misplaced items. |
| Improved Traceability | Track the full lifecycle of textiles from issue and wash to return and reuse. |
| Reliable Laundry Performance | Silicone body supports wet, humid and demanding laundry environments. |
| Easier Uniform Management | Manage size, issue, return and department allocation with item-level visibility. |
| Better Workflow Visibility | Real-time RFID data supports smarter decisions and efficient operations. |

Installation Options
Sewn into Seam / Hem
Insert the silicone tag into a narrow fabric sleeve or sewn channel, then sew securely to the textile along the edges.
Recommended for: Garments, uniforms, towels and linen requiring durable long-term attachment.
Fabric Pouch Installation
Place the silicone tag inside a dedicated fabric pouch. The pouch is then sewn onto the textile for secure and protected placement.
Recommended for: Items needing extra protection or easier placement control.
Hidden / Embedded Installation
Conceal the silicone tag within textile layers or a fabric pocket for clean and discreet integration.
Recommended for: Hospitality linen, uniforms and products requiring minimal visible tag exposure.
Installation method should be selected according to fabric type, wash process, textile structure and item value. Sample testing is recommended before bulk installation.
