Pharma RFID
RFID in the Pharmaceutical Industry and Medical Device Technology
Digitization of the Healthcare Industry
Digitization, automation and patient centricity are becoming increasingly important for companies in the pharmaceutical and medical device technology sectors. Smart labels with integrated RFID technology can add major value to many applications. Products are provided with a digital interface and even a digital twin, thus supporting the digitization trend in the pharmaceutical industry and medical device technology sector. The objective is to enhance processes and their transparency, increase product safety, and assist patients and healthcare staff.
Process Optimization
The demands made on process efficiency and process safety keep growing: higher process speeds, interlinked process steps, maximum process reliability. RFID systems can automate and enhance these processes. For instance, RFID-Labels help control intralogistics, safeguard the supply chain, monitor production, manage inventories and enable interaction between consumables and equipment according to the lock-and-key principle.

Patient Safety
The growing trend toward self-medication confronts products, patients and, above all, manufacturers with many new challenges. For one, the patient’s use of a drug delivery device or medication must be both simple and safe even from a regulatory perspective. For the other, patient behavior and expectations have significantly changed in recent years. With RFID, digital interaction between patients, physicians and manufacturers as well as communication between a medication and a smart device is successfully achieved. Thus, patients are optimally and reliably assisted in self-administering their medicines.
Possible Uses
- Product-device communication, consumables identification (lock-and-key principle)
- Inventory management
- Intralogistics
- Patient support
- Digital interaction and data monitoring
- Supply chain management and track & trace
- Bulk reading and identification on unit level
- Product authentication and counterfeiting protection
- First-opening indication and protection of product integrity
- Process monitoring and control

Perfect Protection for RFID
Extreme robustness and perfect performance of the RFID-Labels throughout the various processing stages and across the entire supply chain are prerequisites for perfect a use of the RFID technology. Particularly critical to ensuring robustness is the label’s design. Schreiner MediPharm's new Robust RFID-Label delivers reliable end-to-end functionality from production to final use.
