Depending on what exactly you are trying to achieve, you would likely want to use a passive high-frequency (HF) or ultrahigh-frequency (UHF) transponder. Among the major providers of inlays are:
• Avery Dennison
• Invengo
• Smartrac—which recently acquired UPM RFID, Neology and KSW Microtec (see Smartrac Acquires UPM RFID, Becoming a UHF Tag Leader)
In addition, Impinj and NXP Semiconductors manufacture the chips found in many inlays, so they could also likely put you in touch with partners that produce inlays.
