Maxim opens RFID and smart-label plant in Auburn, Alabama

Label and tag maker Maxim is opening an RFID and smart-label manufacturing facility in Auburn, Alabama, investing USD 1.4m in equipment and building works and creating up to 15 jobs. The 5,680 sq ft plant, operating as Maxim Solutions Auburn LLC, is Maxim's second US manufacturing site and sits close to Auburn University's RFID Lab, with printing, encoding, verification and finishing all done in-house.

Why this mattersA local US base for inlay-to-finished-tag production and verification shortens lead times for serialised RFID orders and reduces reliance on offshore manufacturing for retail and apparel brands.

• Investment of USD 1.4m covers production equipment and building construction.
• The project will create up to 15 jobs.
• The 5,680 sq ft facility operates as Maxim Solutions Auburn, LLC on Stage Road.
• This is Maxim's second manufacturing facility in the United States, out of 21 plants worldwide.
• The plant will produce RFID hangtags, stickers and NFC labels and tags, with printing, encoding, verification and finishing done on site.
• The site is located near Auburn University's RFID Lab, a research centre focused on retail and supply-chain RFID technology.
