HID Global announced on May 17th 2022 the acquisition of the Pennsylvanian company, Vizinex RFID which was founded in 2021. This increases HID Global’s presence in healthcare/medical, manufacturing, oil & gas, data centres and more, adding key technology to HID Global’s tag portfolio.
Bringing Vizinex into the HID family strengthens our position in the RFID market, especially in North America, this strategic acquisition exemplifies our commitment to extending our leadership in the RFID portfolio by providing a comprehensive suite of technology and services to customers across key markets.
Björn Lidefelt, EVP and Head of HID Global
Vizinex RFID provides high-quality standard and bespoke custom tags to clients that help create new efficiencies, save money and improve tracking, security and authentication. Vizinex’s expertise especially lies in delivering tailor-made RFID tags that are completely integrated into and compatible with different product designs. The applications can be tailored to suit critical attributes such as shape, dimension, frequency, and environmental tolerance (tolerant to, for example, repeated exposure to adverse temperatures). The tags are then manufactured in-house, in the US, using state-of-the-art, proven processes with short turnaround times.
Acquiring Vizinex is well aligned with HID Global Identification Technologies’ strategy of expanding our product offering, which with Vizinex now also will include a RFID product platform based on PCBA technology. In addition, it will increase our presence in key vertical markets as well as add complementary tag manufacturing footprint in the US. This acquisition, along with HID’s recent acquisition of Omni-ID, expands both our technology portfolio offering and our geographic reach as we strengthen our position as the global leader in RFID tag design and manufacturing.
Marc Bielmann, SVP and Head of IdentificationTechnologies, HID Global
