Identiv, Inc., a global supplier of RFID- and BLE-enabled Internet of Things (IoT) solutions, has announced the completion of its manufacturing transition from Singapore to its facility in Bangkok, Thailand.

According to Identiv, the successful production transition to Thailand represents a significant achievement for the Perform pillar of Identiv’s Perform, Accelerate, Transform (P-A-T) strategy, establishing a highly efficient manufacturing operation in a location known for its strong workforce and competitive cost structure. The move is expected to drive operational efficiency, while also positioning the company as an IoT industry leader in Multicomponent Manufacturing (MCM), the forward-looking production method critical for the next decade of advanced IoT applications.

“The completion of our Thailand production transition is a foundational milestone for Identiv as a pure-play IoT company, marking the end of a successful two-year process and delivering on a key strategic objective for operational excellence,” says Kirsten Newquist, CEO at Identiv. “By providing a state-of-the-art, high-quality and cost-efficient base, the Thailand facility is now the engine of our competitive advantage, engineered for the future of IoT and sustained, profitable growth.”

As IoT applications expand from inventory management and asset tracking to complex, high-value applications such as real-time location tracking, condition monitoring, and advanced security, simple, single component inlays are evolving into more sophisticated, multi-component designs to deliver this data accurately and consistently. MCM is an important production method for this new era of IoT manufacturing, enabling the industrial-scale integration of various components, including chips, sensors, and batteries, into advanced RFID- and BLE-enabled tags.

Identiv’s Thailand facility is strategically positioned with this advanced MCM capability, enabling the company to rapidly commercialize next-generation, high-value IoT solutions and support continued growth.

“Multicomponent manufacturing is not merely an assembly method; it is the orchestration of interdependent disciplines, including product design, process engineering, material science, and testing,” states Manfred Mueller, chief strategy officer at Identiv. “The decade of experience our teams have in refining these parameters across thousands of production runs is a key competitive advantage for Identiv. This expertise is what allows us to rapidly prototype and commercialize complex systems for critical high-value applications, cementing our role as the infrastructure layer shaping IoT’s future.”

MCM is expected to play a key role in expanding Identiv’s specialized IoT solutions, including advanced BLE capabilities for healthcare and logistics applications.
