Sensormatic Solutions has been again recognized by Business Intelligence Group (BIG) for its commitment to sustainable operations. The awards group announced this week that Sensormatic Solutions hard tag recirculation program—which helps retailers reuse their radio-frequency identification (RFID) and electronic article surveillance (EAS) hardware—is among its Sustainability Initiatives of the Year for 2023.

The BIG Sustainability Awards honor people, teams, and organizations that make sustainability an integral part of their business practices or overall mission. The organization’s proprietary and unique scoring system selectively measures performance across multiple business domains and then rewards those companies whose achievements stand above those of their peers.

Sensormatic Solutions recirculation program is ahead of its time, helping retailers operate responsibly while saving money on labor, mitigating shrink, and decreasing merchandise damage that can come with hard tag applications. The program fills a critical need for retailers as public pressure to embrace more eco-conscious operational models continues to build.

Over the past year, Sensormatic Solutions and its retail partners have recirculated over 1.4 billion tags, allowing retailers to reduce their reliance on single-use plastics. To put it into perspective, one year of the program running at this scale:

• Kept 20.6 million pounds of plastic out of landfills
• Saved 260,000 MWH of electricity

Also of note are the brand’s tags themselves, which exceed current regulatory requirements for single-use plastics and offer dual capabilities to reduce the need for additional hardware. By going beyond compliance, Sensormatic Solutions shows further commitment to not only making a real impact but also ensuring its retail partners are prepared for future regulations.

Sensormatic Solutions has been committed to building a more sustainable future for retail since its earliest days. The hard tag recirculation program is just one of the ways Sensormatic Solutions is pushing retail toward a more sustainable future. The brand continues to pursue innovative new solutions, services, and programs that help retailers conduct their business more responsibly.
