COVID-19 Impact on the Global RFID Market
The RFID market includes key companies such as Avery Dennison, Zebra Technologies, Honeywell, NXP Semiconductors, Impinj, HID Global, GAO RFID, Identiv, Invengo, and Nedap. These suppliers have their design and manufacturing facilities and corporate offices spread across various countries across Asia Pacific, Europe, Americas, and RoW. The RFID solutions offered by these companies are used by several industries for various applications. COVID-19 not only impacted the operations of the various RFID companies, but also affected the businesses of their partners and distributers. The fall in demand for expensive retail products worldwide due to lockdown measures, along with supply chain disruptions, is expected to have slowed down the growth of the RFID market. The falling global demand for automobiles is also expected to have a mid-term impact on the automotive RFID market. Although governments in developing regions have mandated the RFID tagging on vehicles for tolling, the slowdown in travel has currently restricted the deployment of RFID tags. Manufacturing facilities across several sectors, such as automotive and consumer electronics, re-opened post-third quarter of 2020 as lockdown measures were lifted in various countries. Still, factories in the European region are yet to function at pre-COVID-19 levels due to social distancing norms.
RFID Market Dynamics
Driver: Increasing installation of RFID systems in manufacturing units to improve productivity due to COVID-19
Manufacturing facilities need to monitor equipment condition and performance, defects in processes, and system failures, and ensure predictive maintenance of equipment and systems through the integration of specialized tools and adoption of quality management practices. The use of RFID technology for plant asset management helps manufacturers achieve this goal. A combination of RFID tags and sensor solutions is an ideal solution for various locations in a manufacturing facility, such as conveyors, cameras, boilers, tanks, pipes, etc., to manage and maintain the quality and output of a manufacturing process. RFID tags are attached to movable assets in the industries such as tools, manufacturing equipment, and process components (e.g., doors, engine, wheels, mirrors, and other parts of an automobile) that are part of a final product to track them in the process. The use of RFID solutions not only helps track the parts but also helps understand the lifecycle of manufacturing equipment. The increase in penetration of these solution is projected to increase worldwide with the growth of the RFID market.
In the current scenario of the COVID-19 pandemic, many companies have faced a slowdown in operations due to the lockdown and restrictions on working norms from governments. Companies need to ensure adherence to social distancing mandates within the plant. Using RFID technology with industrial automation solutions, companies can revive faster than what was predicted during mid-2020. The benefits of RFID help manufacturers not only track the parts and equipment remotely but also help to identify if more than the stipulated number of people have gathered at a point.
Restraint: High purchase, installation, and maintenance costs
The installation cost of an RFID system can range from USD 2 million to 5 million for a standard active real-time monitoring system. This cost can differ according to end-use industry and installation area. High installation cost is one of the major restraining factors for the implementation of RFID technology. Adoption of RFID systems in any industry requires high investments, including the purchase cost of RFID tags, readers, and software, and the costs associated with replacement services and electricity. Add-on features such as continuous accuracy checking of systems, IoT integration, and training costs make RFID solutions more costly. This results in a low adoption rate of RFID systems.
Opportunity: Rising need for contact-tracing solutions due to COVID-19
Many businesses and offices worldwide have resumed their operations after the COVID-19-induced lockdowns were lifted. However, governments have mandated such companies to maintain social distancing and low employee capacity. If the norms are not followed, a single case of COVID-19 can potentially lead to the closure of an entire facility and require decontamination before restarting the operations. To avoid such a situation, large companies are undertaking various precautionary measures, including contact-tracing solutions. To capitalize on the growing need for contact-tracing solutions, many RFID solutions providers have been launching new products or enhancing existing products to suit the needs of their customers during the COVID-19 pandemic. For instance, in May 2020, Ubisense launched its new enterprise contact-tracing solution to protect workers, minimize business downtime, and help businesses regain control over productivity and revenue.
Challenges: Lack of awareness about RFID solutions and expert workforce
Currently, the awareness about the RFID technology among end users is very low. End users are still working with traditional identification practices such as alphanumeric labeling, numbering, or barcodes for tracking the assets manually. The use of RFID technology is assumed to be expensive by many end users due to low or no acknowledgment of its long-term benefits. Traditional asset tracking is majorly followed in many countries in APAC and RoW. The customers lack the knowledge and expertise regarding RFID technology, due to which they fail to leverage the potential benefits of RFID in their business. These factors act as barriers to the adoption of RFID solutions.
RFID Tag segment is expected to register higher CAGR during the forecast period
The tag segment of the RFID market, by product is projected to grow at a higher CAGR during the forecast period. Tags are the most widely used components in the RFID market. These devices are attached to several industrial and commercial assets, including manufacturing equipment and other industrial machinery, industrial materials, products, retail products, inventory, logistic containers, labels on products and groups of products, IV pumps, ECGs, and wheelchairs. The large-scale use of tags and ease of use for tracing any kind of asset is the major reason for the adoption of RFID tags. This could drive the demand for RFID tags in years ahead.
Passive tags to register higher growth rage during the forecast period
The passive tags segment of RFID tag market, by tag type, is expected to register higher CAGR during forecast period. Passive tags do not require an external power source. These are inexpensive and smaller, and easier to manufacture than active tags. Passive RFID tags have various applications and are commonly used to track goods in pharmaceuticals, retail, supply chain, enterprise, and other industries. Zebra Technologies, Avery Dennison, Alien Technology, Omni-ID, HID Global, Honeywell, and Mozix are some of the leading providers of passive RFID tags. With the increasing penetration of passive tags as RAIN RFID frequency, the market for these tags is expected to grow at the highest CAGR during the forecast period.
The ultra-high-frequency (UHF) tags accounted for largest share of RFID tag market in 2020
UHF tags can be classified into 2 types on the basis of frequency range: passive tags and active tags. UHF passive RFID tags offer the longest read range and highest reading speed among all passive tags. These tags have a frequency range of 860960 MHz. UHF passive tags can be read from an average distance of about 56 meters; larger UHF passive tags can read more than 30 meters in ideal conditions. UHF active tags have 2 major operating frequencies: 433 MHz and 2.45 GHz. These tags have the longest read range among all tags, i.e., around 150 meters. These tags are largely used for applications such as asset tracking, asset counting, inventory management, supply chain management, vehicle tagging, and manufacturing equipment and product part tagging. Due to rising adoption of UHF tags in these applications, the market for UHF tags is high and is expected to be the same during the forecast period.
The logistics and supply chain application held largest share of RFID tag market in 2020
The dominance of this segment is due to the high adoption of tracking systems by logistics organizations to track and monitor their cargo in transit through air, road, or marine. RFID solutions help industries optimize their supply chain by better managing warehouse inventory, tracking shipments, and streamlining the best route for the supply chain. Supply chain companies are facing major issues in ensuring that the right product is delivered at the right location at the right time. Such companies are deploying RFID tags on containers and freight systems to have real-time visibility of the cargo. The involvement of governments in the global supply chain has led to the use of RFID tags on freight to locate and track them for secure transport. These activities are expected to drive the growth of the RFID tag market for logistics and supply chain application.
Americas is expected to register largest market share in terms of value for RFID tag market globally during the forecast period
The high adoption of RFID systems in the US is a major factor that has led to the prominent position of the Americas in the RFID market. Retail, manufacturing, transportation, logistics and supply chain, animal tracking, healthcare, defense, and IT asset tracking are the major applications for the RFID tag market in the US as well as throughout the Americas. The use of RFID is high in supply chain monitoring for tracking assets in real time. Various hospitals in the US are using RFID tags for applications such as equipment tracking, patient monitoring, and other tracking tasks. These developments are expected to drive the growth of the RFID tag market in the region.
The recent COVID-19 pandemic is expected to impact the global RFID industry. The entire supply chain got disrupted due to limited supply of parts during the first quarter of 2020. For instance, the outbreak of COVID-19 in China resulted in lockdown measures which included the shutdown of manufacturing facilities and warehouses and affected the global exports and shipments of various industries. The lockdown measures announced in several countries across the globe as they got impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic also led to a fall in the domestic and export demand for consumer electronics, automotive vehicles, and other industrial equipment and embedded devices in these countries. Due to slow down in shipment the demand for RFID tags used for tracking these assets also got affected.
