French company Primo 1D’s develops e-thread

Primo 1 D’s ultra high-frequency RFID yarn enables the embedding of RFID tags directly into garments or materials. The yarn is meant for textile manufacturers. The technology is not only intended for use in apparel and retail but is also being trialed on industrial products that do not lend themselves well to the attachment of an adhesive or hanging tag.

The e-thread is an RFID yarn for which the antenna is built into the yarn strand itself. The company uses standard RFID chips which typically measure 445 micrometers by 490 micrometers or smaller.

Since the technology was introduced, the company has further developed it to create improved impedance-matching techniques. This means that the e-thread can be read at twice the distance, from seven meters to 12 meters. It can also be shorter than its predecessor, depending on the application.

Primo 1 D is a French technology company. It has reached a throughput of five million units with the launching of its new production equipment. This is largely due to investments over the last two years in the industrial phase of ramping the manufacturing and production technology and related equipment. The RFID-enabled thread or yarn was developed as part of a European project to develop intelligence in textiles.
