![5 Best CFD Brokers for Beginners [UK, 2026]](https://todaynews.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2026/03/Invest-360x180.jpg)
A Shenzhen-based RFID technology company is stepping up its focus on the UK and European markets, citing growing demand from clean energy operators and IoT automation teams who are struggling to manage physical assets at scale.
TagtixRFID, co-founded by CEO June Liu and CTO Jayden Chen, has announced it is expanding its market reach across Europe — including the UK, Scandinavian countries, and Eastern Europe — as the company sees a consistent pattern emerging among clients in solar, EV infrastructure, and industrial automation: the systems are scaling, but the asset tracking hasn’t kept up.
The Problem Driving the Expansion
Britain’s clean energy buildout is generating physical assets at a pace that’s straining traditional management approaches. Offshore and onshore solar installations, EV charging networks, and smart energy storage systems all require individual asset identification — for maintenance scheduling, compliance documentation, and operational visibility.
According to IRENA’s 2025 Global Landscape of Energy Transition Finance report, global investment in EVs and charging infrastructure grew by more than 30% year-on-year, with public EV chargers now surpassing 5 million units deployed worldwide. The UK accounts for a meaningful portion of European deployment activity, driven by government electrification targets and rising private investment.
At small deployment volumes, spreadsheets and barcodes work. At the scale the UK’s clean energy industry is now operating, they don’t. Tags get missed, maintenance windows slip, and field teams spend time on manual checks that an automated identification system would handle in seconds.
RFID — the same technology embedded in contactless payment cards, access control systems, and modern supply chains — is the practical answer. But deploying it well in outdoor, metal-heavy environments requires hardware that standard suppliers don’t always provide, particularly at order volumes that work for growing businesses rather than only large enterprises.
What Makes TagtixRFID Different
Most RFID manufacturers are structured for high-volume, repeat buyers. Their pricing tiers and minimum order quantities reflect that. For a mid-sized solar operator, an EV network startup, or an engineering team at a smart infrastructure company, the entry point is often too rigid to allow proper testing before committing to volume.
TagtixRFID’s commercial model was designed around that gap. The company operates with low minimum order quantities, returns development fees as client projects scale, and provides technical input throughout the process rather than selling hardware and stepping back.
“UK and European clients are building serious infrastructure, but they often don’t have the procurement scale of a tier-one automotive supplier,” says June Liu. “We want to be the partner that works with them at every stage — not just when they’re big enough to meet a large MOQ.”
The company’s roots are in access control and payment RFID — high-reliability environments serving schools, public sector organisations, and large venue operators — a background that informs how TagtixRFID thinks about product quality and uptime requirements.
Hardware Built for Real Conditions
The UK’s new energy environments are testing for RFID hardware. Coastal solar sites bring salt air and sustained moisture exposure. EV charging infrastructure involves metal enclosures that interfere with standard tag performance. Industrial energy storage systems can involve heat cycling, vibration, and chemical proximity.
TagtixRFID’s UHF product range has been developed with these conditions in mind. The lineup includes waterproof formats for outdoor and high-humidity deployments, on-metal variants engineered for reliable read performance on metal surfaces, high-temperature tags rated for industrial heat environments, and chemical-resistant formats for settings with solvent or corrosive exposure. Compact cryogenic formats are also available for laboratory and cold-storage tracking applications.
CTO Jayden Chen, who has more than a decade of RFID manufacturing and supply chain experience in China, oversees the technical product development: “The environments our clients are working in don’t forgive bad tag selection. We spend a lot of time on materials and antenna design because the cost of getting it wrong in the field — especially at scale — is much higher than the cost of getting it right during validation.”
Timing and Market Outlook
TagtixRFID’s European push comes at a point when competition in the UK and broader European RFID services market remains thinner than in North America, creating an opening for a supplier positioned to serve growing businesses rather than only established enterprises.
The IoT-based asset tracking and monitoring market, which includes RFID as a key enabling technology, was valued at approximately $8.7 billion in 2025 and is forecast to approach $19 billion by 2032. Analysts cite clean energy, industrial automation, and connected logistics as the primary growth sectors.
For UK operators currently at the planning or early deployment stage, the company’s message is straightforward: the time to build proper asset identification into a system is before deployment, not after. The cost gap between getting the spec right at small scale and reworking it at full deployment is significant, and it widens the longer a team waits.
