Avery Dennison unveils innovative BD iDFill syringes featuring RFID technology

BELGIUM – Avery Dennison, in collaboration with Becton Dickinson and Company (BD), has launched BD iDFill, a pre-fillable syringe featuring integrated RFID traceability and authentication technology.

The RFID tags are embedded into the rigid needle shield, seamlessly integrating with the syringe design without altering the syringe barrel.

This smart needle shield assigns a unique digital identity to the pre-fillable syringe (PFS), enabling unit-level traceability throughout its lifecycle.

The unique serial number carried by the RFID also facilitates authentication at the point of care, ensuring enhanced safety and reliability.

Heikki Haavisto, Managing Director at Turck Vilant Systems, highlighted the transformative potential of RFID, “The ability to uniquely identify individual items moves beyond traditional batch monitoring, saving time and reducing costs.

“We are excited to join this journey alongside Avery Dennison and BD to bring these benefits to the pharmaceutical industry.”

Barbara Van Rymenam, Senior Director of Healthcare at Avery Dennison Smartrac, emphasized the operational advantages, “Tracing individual units allows manufacturers to mitigate risks related to mix-ups while using advanced analytics to optimize manufacturing processes. The solution meets stringent industry requirements while improving efficiency.”

The BD iDFill syringes will be showcased at the upcoming Pharmapack event on January 22–23 in Paris, France, where Avery Dennison will demonstrate authentication features in partnership with Turck Vilant Systems.
