Idyllic Technology, a company specializing in advanced chip-less RFID solutions, announced it will be exhibiting at EuroShop 2026, the global retail trade fair, in Düsseldorf, Germany from February 22 to 26, 2026. Idyllic will showcase its award-winning chip-less RFID “Radio Frequency Barcode” technology at booth 5D44, highlighting how this “barcode of the future” can revolutionize retail operations through sustainable, high-speed product identification.
EuroShop 2026 is one of the world’s premier retail industry events, expected to attract over 80,000 professionals from every continent. For Idyllic, this venue offers a pivotal platform to connect with retailers, partners, and industry leaders. As a pioneer in identification technology, Idyllic plans to demonstrate how its RF tags, which contain no microchips and can be produced at less than one cent per tag, can streamline inventory management, accelerate checkout processes, and improve supply chain visibility for retailers. By marrying the simplicity and both the low environmental impact of a barcode with the robust reliability of RFID, without any chips, Idyllic’s solution emphasizes sustainability in retail tech.
Recent technical breakthroughs by Idyllic will be on display at EuroShop. The company’s latest RF Barcode system can scan items at unprecedented speeds, up to 4,000 tags per second, and read tags from a distance of 65 cm (25.6 inches). This combination of high throughput and extended range, rarely achieved with chip-less identification, means retailers could see dramatically faster transactions and more flexible scanning in stores and warehouses. Idyllic’s team will conduct live demonstrations to show how these capabilities translate into reduced checkout times, real-time stock tracking, and frictionless customer experiences in a retail setting.
“EuroShop 2026 is the ideal venue for us to present our technology to the retail world,” said Louis Gautier-Le Boulch, CEO of Idyllic Technology. “We are excited to show how our RF Barcode can offer retailers a sustainable, cost-effective alternative to traditional RFID and barcodes. With no silicon chips and minimal environmental impact, our solution is poised to transform retail operations by reducing waste, cutting costs, and boosting efficiency for businesses large and small.”

Idyllic’s presence at EuroShop underscores its commitment to driving innovation in retail technology. As the retail sector increasingly seeks cost-effective and eco-friendly solutions, Idyllic’s chip-less RFID platform offers a timely answer. By removing expensive silicon chips from RFID tags, Idyllic dramatically lowers the cost per tag while maintaining high performance, thereby making item-level tracking viable even for low-margin products like groceries. The company’s approach also aligns with sustainability goals by reducing electronic waste associated with billions of disposable RFID tags. Visitors to EuroShop 2026 will be among the first to experience how Idyllic’s technology can make retail operations not only more efficient, but also more environmentally responsible.
