- Introducing Eco biodegradable materials
- Promoting low-energy production
- Committed to realizing circular economy for our customers


Environmental Action
Eco-friendly RFID tags are designed to provide the same performance as traditional RFID tags but with a reduced impact on the environment. XGSun is also striving to practice sustainable development, which includes mitigating the environmental impact of factories and production processes and adding sustainable products to solutions to customers wherever possible.
From 2020 to now, XGSun partnered with Avery Dennison and Beontag to introduce biodegradable RFID Inlay and Labels based on non-chemical etching process, effectively reducing the environmental burden of industrial waste.
XGSun’s Efforts
1. Selection of materials
At present, in order to achieve the purpose of degradability of RFID tags, the first consensus is to de-plasticize, including a plastic-free antenna base material and the label surface material. It is relatively simple to de-plasticize RFID label surface materials. Reduce the use of PP synthetic paper and try to use art paper. The key core technology is to eliminate the traditional carrier PET film of the tag antenna and replace it with paper or other degradable materials.
◇ Face material
ECO tags use a sustainable fiber-based paper substrate and low-cost conductor, the antenna paper substrate acts as a face material without extra face laminate layer.
◇ Antenna
Use printed antennas. (Printed antennas directly use conductive ink (carbon paste, copper paste, silver paste, etc.) to print conductive lines on paper to form the circuit of the antenna.) It is characterized by fast production speed and excellent performance of printed antennas, which can reach 90-95% of the performance of aluminum etched antennas. Silver paste is an environmentally friendly material and does not contain harmful substances. It can reduce carbon emissions and reduce environmental pollution.
◇ Glue
Water glue is an environmentally friendly adhesive made from natural polymers or synthetic polymers as adhesives and water as solvent or dispersant, replacing environmentally polluting and toxic organic solvents. Existing water-based adhesives are not 100% solvent-free and may contain limited volatile organic compounds as additives to their aqueous media to control viscosity or flow ability. The main advantages are non-toxic, non-polluting, non-combustible, safe to use, and easy to implement clean production processes. The Avery Dennison water glue used by XGSun is an adhesive that meets FDA (U.S. Food and Drug Administration) standards and can be directly contacted with food. It is safer, environmentally friendly, and reliable.
◇ Release liner
Glassine paper, as one of the base paper materials, is being more and more widely used in various self-adhesive products. Labels that use glassine paper as the backing paper are directly coated with silicon on the backing paper without covering it with a layer of PE film, making their environmental protection much better than the non-degradable PE film-coated backing paper, which is in line with the development of social productivity and environmental protection.


2. Production process optimization
XGSun deeply understands that low energy consumption and low emissions are important factors to achieve sustainability. Reduce energy consumption during the manufacturing process and reduce carbon emissions by optimizing processes, such as using clean electricity and efficient production equipment.
3.Extend the service life of tag
The design pays attention to the durability of the label to ensure that it can withstand the test of various environmental conditions in practical applications and extend the service life, thus reducing the waste of resources caused by frequent replacement.
4. Easy to Recycle
For RFID tags that are no longer in use, they are recycled to reduce the burden on the environment. The recycling process also needs to pay attention to sustainability, such as adopting environmentally friendly recycling methods, increasing recycling rates, and how to reduce energy consumption and waste generation.
5. Passed relevant international environmental protection standards
◇ ISO14001:2015
XGSun has successfully passed the ISO14001:2015 version of the environmental management system standard. This is not only an affirmation of our environmental protection work, but also a recognition of our professional capabilities. This certification marks that our company has reached international standards in the field of environmental protection and has a high degree of professionalism and technology. This standard is an environmental management standard formulated by the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) Environmental Management Technical Committee (TC207). The ISO14001 is based on supporting environmental protection and pollution prevention, and aims to provide a system framework for organizations to coordinate environmental protection and socioeconomic needs. The balance among them can better help enterprises improve their market competitiveness by strengthening management, reducing costs and environmental liability accidents.
◇ FSC: International forest environmental protection system certification
XGSun has successfully passed FSC's COC certification. This not only demonstrates XGSun's outstanding performance in environmental protection, but also reflects its firm commitment to sustainable development. This certification is a high recognition of XGSun's environmental protection work and an active commitment to social responsibility. FSC Forest Certification, also known as Timber Certification, Forest Stewardship Council, is a non-governmental, non-profit organization dedicated to promoting a global socially responsible forest management system. The FSC® label enables businesses and consumers to make informed choices about the sourcing of forest products and create real positive impacts through large-scale market participation, such as protecting wildlife, mitigating climate change, and improving the lives of workers and communities, thereby achieving the ultimate goal of "Forests for All Forever".


Success Case
Guangxi, where XGSun is located, is an important source of sugar in China. More than 50% of farmers relying on sugarcane farming as their main source of income & 80% of China's sugar production coming from Guangxi. In order to solve the problem of commodity management chaos in transportation sugar industry chain, XGSun and the local government jointly launched the sugar industry informational reform plan. It use the RFID technology to supervise the whole process of sugar production, delivery, transportation & sales, effectively reducing the loss of sugar during transportation and ensuring the safety of the whole sugar industry chain.
In order to ensure the sustainability of RFID technology, XGSun has been constantly exploring more environmentally friendly and sustainable technologies and methods. Only in this way can we make better use of the convenience and efficiency of RFID technology, while also can better protect our environment and ecology.
