Smart Labels

RFID and NFC labels for multiple applications in the healthcare industry

Smart E-Labels: Optimized Processes and Patient Safety with RFID and NFC

Smart labels with integrated RFID technology support digitization in the healthcare industry: Devices, medicines, containers, consumables and equipment are provided with RFID, NFC or Bluetooth labels and then automatically and contactless captured, read and controlled. The result: Optimized processes, increased patient safety and reliable product and brand protection. Schreiner MediPharm develops customized smart pharma labels adapted to the manufacturing processes which can be used in various application areas of the pharmaceutical industry, medical technology and clinical research while ensuring reliable functionality—from production to the end user.

End-to-End RFID Functionality Across The Entire Supply Chain

RFID labels can be used throughout the pharmaceutical supply chain.

Our Smart Labels for your Special Field of Application

Communication between device and medication (lock-and-key principle)

The lock-and-key principle ensures that a medical device and its consumables, for example a drug, belong together without any doubt. The device is equipped with an RFID reader (= lock). It reads a consumable equipped with an RFID label (= key) automatically and contactless. The data stored on the RFID chip ensures that only original products are used.

Application areas

  • Injection devices
  • Pens
  • Adherence monitoring tools
  • Laboratory equipment
  • Diagnostic equipment
     

Benefits

  • Increases patient safety during self-medication and drug administration
  • Prevents the use of expired, wrong or counterfeit medicines and consumables
  • Helps avoid application and dosing errors
  • Prevents illegal reuse of original containers

Automated inventory management (supply chain management)

At various stations, the RFID labels attached to the product are automatically recorded and seamlessly documented. RFID sensor labels can be used to digitally monitor the integrity, first opening or tampering of a container.

Application areas

  • Warehouse management and inventory management
  • Monitoring and control of packaging and logistics processes
  • Real-time control of material and product flows
     

Benefits

  • Clear identification
  • Automatic product data acquisition
  • Optimal use of consumables
  • Enhanced security of supply
  • Protection against potential medication errors
  • Increase in process reliability and transparency

Authenticity protection and first-opening indication (authentication)

Drugs equipped with NFC labels can be digitally authenticated via smartphone and possible tampering with them can be detected. In real time, the user receives a clear result indicating whether he is holding an original drug in his hands. The pharmaceutical manufacturer receives information for monitoring the supply chain and avoiding possible gray market activities.

Application areas

  • Product and brand protection
  • Counterfeit protection
  • First opening indication and proof of authenticity
  • Supply chain security


Benefits

  • Easy handling
  • Integration of product-specific information
  • Clear result, no interpretation required
  • Transparency about product usage in the market

Smartphone-based user support (Patient Centricity)

Through their interactive applications, NFC/RFID labels support medication adherence and improve a patient's compliance. Physicians can individually adjust the medication dosage as needed. At the same time, loyalty to the drug and the pharmaceutical company is built up among the physician and user.

Application areas

  • Application to primary packaging (vials, bottles, syringes, pens and autoinjectors)
  • Application on secondary packaging (folding boxes, outer packaging)
     

Benefits

  • Easy access to application and product information
  • Communication channel to patient and medical staff
  • Monitoring and increasing adherence to therapy
  • Product authentication in the background
  • Transparent supply chain
