Wet inlays and labels are both used in various applications such as product labeling, inventory management, and asset tracking. While they serve similar purposes, there are differences between them in terms of construction, application method, and durability.
1) Construction:
1.1 Wet inlay consists of an RFID chip attached to an antenna, which is then typically embedded in a protective material such as plastic or paper. The chip and antenna are usually thin and flexible.
1.2 Label is a combination of a wet inlay and an adhesive layer. It consists of an RFID chip and antenna, similar to a wet inlay, but it is further backed with an adhesive layer and a release liner, which allows it to be easily applied to various surfaces.
2) Application:
2.1 Wet inlays are typically applied during the manufacturing or packaging process of a product. They are embedded or laminated within the material, such as plastic, paper, or packaging film, during production.
2.2 Labels are more versatile and can be applied to the surface of a product or asset after it has been manufactured or packaged. They are designed to be peelable from a liner, and the adhesive layer allows them to be attached to different surfaces.
3) Durability and Protection:
3.1 Wet inlays are usually more durable and protected because they are embedded within a material during production. The surrounding material acts as a shield, providing physical protection to the RFID chip and antenna.
3.2 Labels are generally less robust compared to wet inlays. While they provide some level of protection, they are more exposed to environmental factors such as moisture, temperature, and physical wear and tear.
