Tageos Unveils World's First RFID Products Based on FlexIC Technology for Sustainable Connection

Tageos Launches Innovative RFID Products

Tageos, a global leader in wireless RFID and BLE inlays, has announced an exciting new phase in its collaboration with Pragmatic Semiconductor, a pioneer in flexible semiconductor technology. On April 16, 2026, they unveiled the first-ever lines of RFID products based on FlexIC technology: the EOS Lite and EOS Zero Lite series. These products initiate a significant step forward in creating efficient, low-carbon connectivity for large-scale NFC applications.

Enhanced Sustainability and Efficiency

The newly launched product lines aim to significantly reduce carbon footprints through cutting-edge antenna designs, ultra-thin FlexIC technology, and sustainable manufacturing processes. Among them, the EOS-932 Zero Lite PR1301 stands out as a passive NFC inlay made from paper substrate, marking the premier product in this innovative lineup. Both EOS Lite and EOS Zero Lite utilize the latest RFID technology equipped with Pragmatic's NFC Connect PR1301 chip, ensuring minimal material use, reduced carbon emissions, and lower costs.

Industry-First FlexIC Technology

The strategic partnership between Tageos and Pragmatic Semiconductor has led to the creation of these novel products that respond to a growing demand for item-level intelligence. The EOS Lite series and EOS Zero Lite are designed with slim profiles that allow brands to integrate NFC functionality seamlessly into product packaging and labels. The paper substrate not only contributes to sustainability but also enhances recyclability, making it ideal for retail environments focused on eco-friendliness.

Features of EOS-932 Zero Lite

The EOS-932 Zero Lite PR1301 is positioned as an affordable and sustainable NFC inlay that caters to various applications like consumer engagement and product authentication. By allowing for discreet integration, brands can leverage this technology without altering their product's visual aspect, which is crucial in maintaining brand identity while reducing environmental impact.

Matthieu Picon, CEO of Tageos, emphasized the importance of this collaboration: "Our close working relationship with Pragmatic Semiconductor merges innovation with a clear sustainability vision, enabling clients to deploy highly scalable and cost-effective NFC inlays for smart packaging applications. The EOS Lite and EOS Zero Lite product lines epitomize our commitment to success, establishing fresh avenues for brands to engage with consumers through the most personal device, the mobile phone."

Transforming Consumer Interaction

Pragmatic Semiconductor's CEO, David Moore, echoed the excitement surrounding this product launch, noting, "Introducing this innovation to the market presents a thrilling application of our FlexIC technology. With Tageos, we address the rapidly growing opportunity of seamlessly integrating item-level intelligence, offering connected experiences at scale while prioritizing sustainability. Together, we are shaping a new era of smart packaging, enabling direct consumer interactions that validate product authenticity, enhance trust, and yield valuable insights across the entire value chain."

Availability and Future Products

Prototype samples of the EOS-932 Zero Lite PR1301 will be available by late Q2 2026, with larger-scale orders expected by Q3 2026, alongside the anticipated launch of additional complementary products later in the year.
