Identiv Makes Products More Intelligent and Allows Consumers to Engage, Track, and Authenticate in the Internet of Things
27 September 2019 - 3:30AM
Identiv, Inc. (NASDAQ: INVE) today announced that the company
is expanding its partnership with Les Bouchages Delage to deliver
Internet of Things (IoT)-ready solutions for near field
communication (NFC)-connected bottles in the wine and spirit
industry. Identiv and Les Bouchages Delage originally partnered
while collaborating on an intelligent NFC bottle cap for luxury
cognac brand. Now, the two companies are expanding their
partnership by equipping a wide variety of Les Bouchages Delage cap
designs with Identiv’s NFC technology.
While partnering on the luxury cognac project,
Identiv and Les Bouchages Delage incorporated a contactless NFC tag
into the cork stopper of all decanters. By tapping their mobile
device to the cork, consumers are able to register their purchase
and become a member of a private club providing exclusive content,
unique experiences, and personalized services. The expanded
partnership between the two companies will now apply the same
intelligent technology to a greater selection of Les Bouchages
Delage bottle caps.
Identiv has developed a custom NFC tag design
that fulfills a variety of unique bottle cap requirements,
including high-performance in complex metal environments, maximum
durability and readability by both Apple® iOS and Android™ mobile
devices at a small tag size, and 100% tested, secured, encoded, and
locked variable data.
As an expert in closure design and production,
Les Bouchages Delage has provided the most reliable industrial
production process for tag embedding, ensuring maximum radio
frequency identification (RFID) performance and luxury-brand
quality control.
“Forty billion devices will be connected to the
IoT by 2020,” said Stephane Ardiley, Identiv Director of Product
Management. “Identiv’s expanded partnership with Les Bouchages
Delage meets the increasing demands of consumers in this
NFC-enabled world; people expect to connect to products in new
ways, and through this partnership, we’re strengthening our
commitment to consumer engagement, asset tracking, and
authentication in the IoT.”
“We saw a tremendous response to the intelligent
corks in the luxury cognac project,” said Christian Delage, Les
Bouchages Delage CEO. “Les Bouchages Delage is expanding its
partnership with Identiv to apply this same intelligent technology
to our complete line of customizable bottle caps to meet the
increasing consumer demand for IoT-connected products. Identiv’s
tag designs meet each unique requirement in the wine and spirits
industry and the team shares our vision for truly trustworthy
product authentication.”
Les Bouchages Delage will be at booth VA43 and
AC25 at LUXE PACK MONACO, September 30 - October 2, 2019.
