DHL to Test Tags on Returns -- Sound Familiar?

According to an article today from RFID Journal, DHL will be spearheading a trial for return solutions with RFID as part of the larger RFID plans with partners like Philips, IBM, SAP and Intel.

This proof-of-concept in the United States is one of the first RFID technology efforts under the "DHL Innovation Initiative" strategy with the aforementioned partners for the logistics industry.

Intellareturn Take: By having an industry leader in the courier space continue to focus on RFID strategy and deployment, the entire industry will benefit and push improved services for vendors, manufacturers and end customers. Adoption will enable better technology that solves many issues costing millions each year for companies ... returns, repairs, counterfeit goods and more.

Stay tuned, as we anticipate increasing activity throughout the courier industry.
