Schreiner ProTech Presents Expanded NXP UCODE 9 RFID Labelling Portfolio at LogiMAT 2026

Schreiner ProTech showcased its expanded portfolio of RFID labelling solutions built around the next-generation NXP UCODE 9 chip family at LogiMAT 2026, held March 24 to 26 in Stuttgart, Germany. The company exhibited at the AIM booth in Hall 2, Stand 2B05, under the theme “Passion for Details” in logistics and manufacturing.

A business unit of Schreiner Group GmbH & Co. KG, Schreiner ProTech specializes in developing customized, high-precision RFID systems designed to perform reliably in challenging industrial environments. These include surfaces such as glass and metal, as well as settings where electrostatic discharge (ESD) poses a risk to sensitive electronics and standard RFID tags.

“Standard solutions frequently reach their limits in those settings, whereas customized RFID systems are fully effective,” said Natalia Biedulski, RFID Product Manager at Schreiner ProTech.

At the heart of the updated product lineup is the integration of NXP’s UCODE 9 chip family, which delivers improved read range, sensitivity, and reliability for UHF RFID applications. The revised portfolio includes the RFID-DistaFerr product family, engineered for use on metallic surfaces, alongside Schreiner ProTech’s Robust-RFID technology, which is built to withstand harsh operating conditions found in logistics and industrial manufacturing.

Security was also a central focus at the show. Schreiner ProTech highlighted its use of Hardware Security Modules (HSMs) integrated directly into the production process. These modules enable tamper-proof RFID identity generation and secure storage, addressing growing demand for authentication and anti-counterfeiting measures across supply chains.

The company presented several real-world application scenarios demonstrating the versatility of its RFID solutions. In water treatment, RFID labels are used to support maintenance documentation and asset tracking. In machinery engineering, Schreiner ProTech’s Item Match Control system uses RFID to prevent the use of unauthorized or incompatible consumables, reducing the risk of equipment damage. Process automation applications were also on display, with a focus on long-term resilience and future viability of RFID-enabled systems.

Headquartered in Oberschleissheim near Munich, Schreiner Group operates additional production sites in Blauvelt, New York, and Shanghai, China. The group’s expertise spans film-based functional components, industrial marking, security solutions, thermal-transfer printing, laser marking, and pressure compensation seals.

The adoption of the NXP UCODE 9 across Schreiner ProTech’s product range signals a broader industry shift toward next-generation RAIN RFID chips that offer better performance in demanding environments. As logistics and manufacturing operations continue to digitize, tailored RFID labelling solutions like those from Schreiner ProTech are becoming essential for accurate asset identification, process control, and supply chain security.
