Construction & Infrastructure

We offer smart solutions for wireless identification (Wireless ID) and sensor monitoring, specifically developed for the requirements of the construction industry. By using RFID technology and intelligent sensors, construction processes can be optimized, building management improved, and the service life of our infrastructure extended.

RFID and intelligent sensors provide a powerful foundation for greater transparency, safety, and efficiency on construction sites. RFID tags enable precise and reliable tracking of materials, components, and tools, while intelligent sensors continuously monitor key parameters such as temperature, humidity, structural integrity, or vibration.

The combination of both technologies delivers meaningful real-time data, enabling improved quality control, predictive maintenance planning, and early detection of potential risks.

Applications of RFID in the construction industry

Applications

Material & component logistics

Digital tracking and efficient management of construction materials, components, tools, and mobile equipment provide transparency, reduce losses, and support smooth site operations.

Monitoring critical components & infrastructure

Sensor-based capture of structural and environmental parameters enables long-term monitoring and predictive maintenance. Damage, vibrations, or wear are detected early and addressed in time.

Integration into Building Information Modeling (BIM)

Real-time data on building structures and materials flows directly into BIM, enabling digital planning and efficient building management.

A wide range of use cases

RFID and sensor technologies make construction processes transparent, safe, and efficient. Components can be uniquely identified, material conditions continuously monitored, and critical parameters such as moisture, temperature, or structural loads captured early. This creates end-to-end traceability, improved quality assurance, and a reliable basis for predictive maintenance—from the construction site through to the ongoing operation of buildings and infrastructure.

Identification of components and materials

RFID tags enable unambiguous labeling of components, concrete samples, or material batches throughout the entire logistics chain. This ensures that origin, installation location, and relevant material information remain transparent and traceable at all times.

Monitoring of bolts and fasteners

Critical bolted joints can be monitored contactlessly to control preload forces and secure seating over the long term. This allows deviations to be detected early and safety requirements to be reliably met.

Monitoring vibrations and structural condition

Sensor solutions capture vibrations, moisture, or cracks directly in the structure and enable continuous condition assessment. This supports early detection of loads and potential damage—as a basis for predictive maintenance and a longer service life of structures.

Benefits for the construction industry with RFID

Manage construction projects intelligently

Digital monitoring solutions provide greater safety, transparency, and efficiency in construction and infrastructure. With real-time data, automated processes, and flexible systems, projects can be managed more cost-effectively, risks identified early, and sustainable decisions made.

Real-time monitoring & safety

Continuous data collection and immediate access to critical parameters enable potential issues to be identified early. This helps minimize risks and reliably protect both people and infrastructure.

Cost efficiency & well-founded decisions

Automated processes reduce the effort required for manual inspections and lower maintenance costs. At the same time, up-to-date and detailed data provides a solid basis for decisions to ensure efficient and cost-effective use of resources.

Flexibility & scalability

Our systems are flexibly adaptable and can be expanded at any time—ideal for modern construction projects of any size and for growing requirements.
