Market Scenario
A smart label is an identification tag more informative than a barcode. This technology embedded in packaging can track the product information in real-time and is available at a much reasonable price. Different types of smart labels including printable labels, chip labels, and electronic labels are used based on the kind of applications such as food & beverages, healthcare & pharmaceuticals, manufacturing & retail, automotive, logistics, and FMCG among others.
Food items move from field to table and inventory management is a critical aspect of the F&B supply chain. The ability of smart labels to trace a food or beverage product’s complete details is becoming more important in view of product recalls.
Managing a huge variety of perishable item demands for sophisticated systems that can give complete information as and when needed. And here is where the innovative technology of smart labels can come in to play giving product information with speed, accuracy, and efficiency at a shorter timeframe.
Instant access to the information is the key driving force encouraging the adoption of smart labels across industries. Therefore, the smart labels market has been witnessing exponential accruals on the global platform.
Acknowledging the traction, the market is vibrating with currently, Market Research Future (MRFR) in its recently published study report asserts that the global smart labels market is estimated to perceive a humongous growth by 2021 registering a fabulous CAGR throughout the forecasted period (2016 – 2021).
