The RFID Alternative
Tired of RFID's Complexity and Cost?
There's a Smarter Way to Track Inventory.
Zimark gives you real-time pallet tracking — with no tagging, no tag compliance programs, and no RF signal problems. Just cameras, accuracy, and visual proof of every pallet movement.
Not sure if we’re a fit? We’ll tell you on the call.
RFID Works. But It Comes With a Long List of "Ifs."
RFID delivers real results — when every supplier tags every pallet correctly, when your products aren’t metallic or liquid, when your dock doors aren’t too close together, and when you have $50,000–$500,000+ to spend on readers, antennas, middleware, and integration.
Most warehouses hit at least one of those walls.
And even when RFID is fully deployed, it can tell you a tag was scanned — but it can’t show you what was loaded, in what condition, or into which truck.
Tags on everything
If a pallet arrives untagged — from a non-compliant supplier, or with a damaged label — it’s invisible to the system.
Signal interference
Steel racking, canned goods, beverages, and dense packing all degrade RFID reads. 99% accuracy in the lab often becomes 96–97% on a busy dock.
No visual evidence
RFID logs that a tag was read. It doesn’t tell you what was loaded, what condition it was in, or whether it went onto the right truck.
Infrastructure cost
Readers, antennas, middleware, WMS integration, RF site surveys — tags are only 30% of total RFID cost. The other 70% is infrastructure.
Cameras Track Pallets.
No Tags. No RF. No Surprises.
Zimark is a camera-based verification layer that works with your existing labels and WMS — giving you (better than) the inventory accuracy and shipment verification RFID promises, without the implementation headache.
Shipping Control
Every outbound load verified before the truck leaves. Camera confirms the right pallet went into the right trailer — and gives you video proof of every shipment.
→ Replaces: RFID dock door portal systems
Forklift Vision
Real-time inventory tracking at the moment of every pallet moved by MHE. Know the exact location of each pallet — no cycle counts, no manual scans, no guessing.
→ Replaces: forklift-mounted RFID reader systems
Proof of Load
Shareable shipment documentation sent automatically. Stop fielding “where’s my pallet?” calls. Start being the 3PL customers recommend.
→ No RFID equivalent
