Cash's proprietary woven UI label provides a means to uniquely individual apparel products allowing for authentication and tracking throughout their life.

A data matrix 2D barcode is integrated into existing woven label designs.

• The unique data contained in the UI label is customer defined and may include such Information as a unique identification number or code, product name, SKU number, production data and supplier identity and is presented as a scannable image.
• The data matrix provides significant amounts of data in a limited amount of space (e.g., a 10-digit code provides up to 10 billion unique numbers in a space measuring 7mm by 9mm only).
• Every label has its own unique number, no two labels are the same.
• The UI label incorporates data imagery that is compatible with existing scanning technologies thus allowing for fast and accurate data capture.
• The UI label does not deteriorate with use and withstands the most robust laundry processes thereby avoiding added label and labour costs associated with label replacement.
