UHF Rugged RFID Nail Tags for Park & Garden Tree Management
UHF RFID Tree Nail Tags – Smart Tree & Wood Tracking for Forestry & Asset Management
Urban forestry and landscape management demand durable, long-term identification systems — and that’s where UHF RFID nail tags come in. Built for extreme outdoor environments, these tags offer a reliable and efficient solution for tree tagging in parks, gardens, campuses, and botanical settings.
Our rugged RFID nail tags combine durability, contactless readability, and simple installation, allowing you to maintain accurate tree data without relying on manual recordkeeping or visible labels that fade over time.
What Are RFID Nail Tags?
RFID nail tags are small, rugged devices embedded with UHF RFID chips. Designed to be hammered into trees or wooden structures, they enable contactless identification and data capture using handheld or fixed RFID readers.
They are ideal for:
- Tree tracking in public parks and gardens
- Managing plant collections in arboretums
- Campus and facility landscaping
- Environmental monitoring and conservation projects
