At CryoWerx, we've embraced RFID technology for our Automated Retail Kiosk solutions, prioritizing accuracy, efficiency, and customer privacy. Unlike traditional vending machines suited for factory-packaged items, our Smart Fridges cater to fresh foods like salads and sandwiches, where RFID's precision is key.

The recent shift [1] by retail giants like Amazon, moving from "Just Walk Out" technology to RFID [2], validates our approach. Amazon's pivot, prompted by the challenges of computer vision accuracy [3] and privacy concerns [4], mirrors our commitment to reliable and secure retail experiences.

Our choice of RFID over other technologies like weight sensing or computer vision is deliberate. While these technologies have their merits, they currently don't match the reliability and privacy standards we achieve with RFID. Our R&D team continuously evaluates new technologies, ensuring we remain at the forefront of retail innovation without compromising on the privacy and trust of our customers.

In summary, CryoWerx's use of RFID technology is a strategic decision backed by industry trends and our commitment to providing a seamless, secure shopping experience for fresh and perishable products.

We are pleased to share that our partner, Avery Dennison, has obtained gold in the RFID category of the 2020 Case Study Competition by AIM, INC! In 2019, we jointly piloted a solution of using WaveSafe™ tags to provide safe, RFID-labeled microwavable grab-to-go meals.

With Sodexo's thought leadership, CryoWerx's innovation in delivery systems and Avery Dennison's expertise, we were able to bring this innovative solution to Sodexo APAC House, ensuring that consumers can enjoy fresh meals with a peace of mind.
