Navigating the complex world of retailers’ RFID compliance rules

Retailers are increasingly using RFID to improve inventory accuracy, product tracking, replenishment, and supply chain visibility. For brands that sell through major retailers such as Walmart, RFID compliance may require more than adding a tag to a product. The RFID label or tag often needs to meet retailer-specific performance standards and pass approval through Auburn University’s ARC Lab.
The ARC approval process helps confirm that an RFID solution performs correctly for the product, packaging format, and retail environment. Read “Navigating RFID Solutions for Retail Products” to learn how the right label partner can help develop samples, support testing, and guide your brand through RFID compliance requirements.
Mastering retailers’ RFID Compliance Requirements
Walmart, as a forerunner in employing RFID, mandates its usage across various departments such as apparel, home goods, electronics and more. That list could grow in the future, and any RFID label meant for a product to be sold must secure Auburn University’s ARC Lab’s approval.
Navigating this approval process can be challenging! The right label partner can provide the guidance brands need to efficiently meet the stipulated requirements and make their mark in leading retail spaces.
