Milestones and Acquisitions

SMARTRAC was the first inlay manufacturer globally to achieve security certification for its production environment and processes for electronic identification (eID) products. The company’s leadership was further solidified when, on March 2, 2020, Avery Dennison Corporation (NYSE: AVY) completed the acquisition of SMARTRAC's Transponder business for €225 million.

A Glimpse into Our German eID Production Lines

In 2011, we installed German eID production lines across two trips. The factory was relatively new, and our team of six professionals spent nearly a month setting up and testing the first production line. We collaborated closely with SMARTRAC’s Thai team to pass the Site Acceptance Test (SAT), followed by operator training.

 

Value & Excellence.
