A shop owner selling a range of products must take steps to ensure security and prevent thefts. One of the most commonly implemented systems is wireless hard tags working with antenna and alarm systems. Any product displayed for sole has this tag attached and activated. It then becomes part of the security chain and can only be deactivated at the checkout counter using a special deactivator device.
Retailers have found this to be proven and reliable since it allows shoppers to try out products and handle them inside stores. RF security hard tags are the perfect solution for a number of reasons:
- Hard tags are available in different types and sizes, making it easy for retailers to affix them to any product, large or small. Pinned tags can be fixed to garments.
- Mini tags and round tags are available at a low cost in bulk packing
- These tags work in the designated RF frequency range of 8.2 MHz and are easily detected by security antennas.
- These tags are unobtrusive and do not interfere with the shopping experience. Retailers can affix such tags easily and staff at check out can remove them just as easily, without affecting the product surface.
- The tags have proved to be totally reliable, fail-safe and easy to dispose off once they are deactivated at the counter.
Retailers have found it advantageous to buy such tags in packing of 100 and 1000 pcs at a low price. These are cost effective and what they spend is recouped considering the savings such theft deterrence affords.
