Avery Dennison, a strategic investor in Wiliot and the leading
developer and provider of digital ID technologies is strengthening
its commitment to scaling the IoT through the integration of
atma.io and the development, design and manufacturing of Wiliot
tags, which will help to create an intelligent and fully connected
IoT.
Avery Dennison Corporation (NYSE:AVY), the world’s largest
provider of RFID and digital ID solutions, and Wiliot, the Internet
of Things pioneer, today announced a strategic partnership
dedicated to scaling the IoT to the next level, creating a new era
of IoT that benefits people and the planet.
Avery Dennison will leverage its R&D capabilities and scale
to design and manufacture second-generation Wiliot tags, which are
stamp-sized computers powered by Bluetooth that attach to any
product or packaging to embed it with intelligence and connectivity
to create more agile, profitable, and sustainable supply
chains.
In addition, Avery Dennison will integrate Wiliot sensing
services (SaaS) with its atma.io connected product cloud, enabling
tag sensing information to be added to the end-to-end item-level
data of a connected product. Both companies share a vision for the
future of the IoT where almost everything is connected to the
internet; not just phones, computers, and homes, but also food,
medicine, clothing, and nearly everything else. With an ambition to
help to eliminate waste and provide unparalleled transparency and
consumer connection.
The partnership will help scale the manufacturing capacity of
Wiliot tags significantly, and will leverage Avery Dennison’s
market development, innovation and ROI expertise to drive value and
enable the company to deliver on large projects to some of the
world’s largest retail, food & beverage, and pharmaceutical
brands.
“Wiliot’s passive Bluetooth technology offers the ability to
work with existing infrastructure and provides another accelerator
to the growth of IoT. Combined with sensing capabilities and
security features as standard, this expands our portfolio and opens
up many new use cases for our customers and partners,” stated
Francisco Melo, vice president and general manager, Avery Dennison
Smartrac.
“Avery Dennison is the only partner in the world with the
manufacturing expertise and efficiency to produce our tags at the
scale that is needed to significantly increase the scale of the
Internet of Things; their ability to scale as we scale is
unquestionable,” stated Tal Tamir, Wiliot’s CEO. “Their partnership
and market development leadership is a significant vote of
confidence in both our company and technology. Now, with the
backing of the world’s largest and most efficient manufacturer of
RFID tags, we’re positioned to drive mass adoption of our
technology and to scale our vision for the next generation of the
IoT.”
