Controlling vehicle access to individual locations – whether it’s corporate facilities, gated communities, or downtown parking lots – can be challenging. Eliminate the need for on-site staff and the hassle of stopping for a card reader with our RFID Windshield Tag.

Unlike other windshield tags on the market, our RFID Windshield Tag utilizes passive RFID UHF (ultra-high frequency) technology offering a more economical option to the active windshield tags available. Encased between thin layers of polyester, the specialized inlay doesn’t require a standoff to read either through or on a glass windshield. This product provides a read range of approximately 20+ ft. A tamper-evident option with strategically placed slits in the label and adhesive layers is also available at not additional cost.

Potential Applications for RFID Windshield Tags

Access Control - the RFID inlay and barcode/human readable information on Metalcraft RFID Windshield Tags can be used to track and control vehicle access both in and out of secure facilities like gated communities, corporate parking lots, etc.

Destructible RFID Windshield Tags

We took our best-selling RFID Windshield Tags and made them even better! Using destructible material to construct the tag itself we’ve made it virtually impossible to remove in one piece – increasing the security features of the tag and the potential applications in which the tag can be used. These features make this the perfect product for access control applications where security is a high priority or you want to eliminate the transfer of tags to other vehicles, i.e., loyalty programs at car washes, parking, etc.

Just like its non-destructible counterpart this tag features subsurface printing ensuring crisp details on even the most complex logos for maximum clarity. Four color processing is also available for limitless design and color options. This product utilizes passive RFID technology and provides a read range of 30+ feet.

DuraDestruct RFID Tags - Glass

DuraDestruct Security RFID Tag's specialized construction for glass surfaces eliminates the transferability of the RFID tag and incorporates two levels of destructibility. If someone attempts to remove the tag the RFID antenna construction breaks into separate pieces making the read range of the tag mere inches. The portion that is still adhered to will literally disintegrate if an attempt is made to remove it from the object.

RFID Parking Permit Hang Tags

Perfect for temporary access control applications where you don’t want permanent attachment to the windshield, the RFID Parking Permit Hang Tag is an optimal choice for access control in parking lots, gated communities and anywhere vehicles come and go. The logo and barcode are subsurface printed on thick polyester for durability and rigidity. Like the RFID Windshield Tag, the RFID Parking Permit Hang Tags provides excellent read range; however, unlike the RFID Windshield Tag, the RFID Parking Permit Hang Tag is completely removable and reusable.

Showcase company logos and designs with our digital printing process which ensures crisp details on even the most complex logos for maximum clarity. In addition, four color processing is available, combined with double-sided registered printing options, for limitless design and color options.
