US-based RFID and supply chain technology vendor Intermec is to supply an RFID and barcode system for the Cargo Free Zone at Thailand’s new Suvarnabhumi Airport to boost transport and logistics capacity. Suvarnabhumi Airport features an NBIA Cargo Free Zone IT project, which has some of the most up-to-date technology and services in the region, including its RFID Customs Free Zone management system.

RFID will be a core part of the IT system for the Cargo Free Zone and will be used to track incoming and outgoing goods in the cargo warehouse and terminal. The Cargo Free Zone also uses Intermec bar code printers and readers to monitor cargo, complementing the RFID system.
