An RFID tag, comprising:
- a body part;
- a fixing part configured to attach the body part to an object to be identified;
- and
- at least one transponder,
- wherein the body part and the fixing part comprise a single integrated piece of a sheet-like or film-like material, wherein the fixing part comprises a jointless annular or loop-like body to be fitted around at least a part of the object to be identified, and wherein the body part and the fixing part are formed such that the body part is surrounded by the fixing part.
A method for manufacturing an RFID tag comprising a body part, a fixing part and a transponder, the method comprising:
- simultaneously making a body part and a fixing part from a single integrated piece of a sheet-like or film-like material such that the body part is surrounded by the fixing part and such that the fixing part is formed of a part with a jointless annular or loop-like body that can be fitted around at least a part of the object to be identified.
A package, comprising:
- a plurality of products separate from each other;
- RFID tags included with the products for identifying the products separately from each other, the RFID tags each comprising a body part, a fixing part configured to attach the body part to the products, and at least one transponder, wherein the body part and the fixing part comprise a single integrated piece of a sheet-like or film-like material, wherein the fixing part comprises a joinlless annular or loop-like body to be fitted around at least a part of the products, and wherein the body part and the fixing part are formed such that the body part is surrounded by the fixing part, and wherein the body part extends in a lateral direction from an edge of the fixing part, wherein the RFID tags are attached to the packages such that at least two products in the package include RFID tags connected to each other by a joining neck.
