Hall: 2, Stand-Nr.: 2D07 - Battery-free E-paper labels are the future of logistics – this is the central theme of CCL Faubel’s exhibition at LogiMAT 2025 in Stuttgart. The labeling specialist will present smart labels with RFID and E-paper technology at its booth 2D07 in Hall 2, which can be integrated into existing IT infrastructures via different interfaces. "RFID is omnipresent in intralogistic processes, and the combination with E-paper displays is also being increasingly used. What sets our smart labels apart, however, is their battery-free operation and the great flexibility in implementation," explains Sven Rath, Business Development Manager at CCL Faubel.
The software for the smart labels is developed in-house at CCL Faubel, allowing the company to take into account all specific network requirements of its customers. "We offer a wide range of interfaces," says Rath. "Thanks to our Smart Device Service, we are able to ensure seamless integration with ERP systems." With the Smart Printer function, which supports various print protocols, users can easily get started. The content is transmitted to the E-paper via print jobs.
Lecture on the Logistics of the Future
Sven Rath will explain in detail how battery-free E-paper labels can be updated via print jobs during a lecture on March 13, 2025, at 10:00 AM in the South Forum in Hall 4. In addition to the so-called Smart Printer function, CCL Faubel will highlight the longevity and sustainability of these labels with its exhibits. "Our smart labels can be rewritten several hundred thousand times. There is no battery to fail or dispose of, and the plastic housing is so robust that it can withstand the high demands of logistics for an extended period of time."
Sven Rath's statements are supported by the current IP55 certification of the Faubel-Logistics Label. Tests, including those for electrical and mechanical safety, have been successfully completed. The housing is resistant to UV radiation and chemicals, scratch-resistant, breakproof, and thermally stable at temperatures from -25°C to 70°C. "The material selection was time-consuming," explains Sven Rath. "However, these properties were crucial for us. Additionally, the individual components should be recyclable to further enhance the sustainability aspect."
