RFID Baggage Tags (IATA Compliant)
The Standard for Global Baggage Tracking (IATA Resolution 753).
Charmetack’s **RFID Baggage Tags** are engineered to meet the strict requirements of modern aviation. We combine a **tear-resistant Thermal PP/PE** face with a high-performance **UHF RFID inlay** to ensure 99.9% read rates at check-in, sorting, and loading points.
Fully compatible with global baggage handling systems (BHS), our tags enable airlines and airports to reduce lost luggage and improve passenger satisfaction.
Why Airlines Choose Our RFID Tags?
- IATA Compliance: Designed specifically for **UHF Gen 2 (RAIN RFID)** systems used by Delta, Air France, and major international hubs.
- Unbreakable Durability: Multilayer structure (Thermal Top + Synthetic Core) resists tearing, humidity, and friction on high-speed conveyor belts.
- Long-Range Readability: 360° omni-directional antenna design ensures bags are read accurately regardless of orientation.
- Residue-Free (Optional): We also offer "boomerang" tags that leave no sticky residue on high-end suitcases.

FAQ: RFID Baggage Labels
Q: Are these tags compatible with our current printers?
Yes. Our tags are compatible with standard IATA-certified thermal printers such as IER 400, Zebra, and Custom. We can adjust the roll core size (25mm / 40mm / 76mm) to fit your machine.
Q: What is the read range?
In a typical airport environment with fixed gantry readers, our tags offer a read range of **3 to 8 meters**, ensuring detection even if the bag is buried under others.
