Dresden (euro adhoc) - November 28, 2008 - KSW Microtec AG
successfully launched Thinlam®, the contactless prelaminate for RFID
card and government applications. Thinlam® is the latest in a series
of new products launched from KSW Microtec this year, confirming the
company´s position as dynamic innovator and setter of standards in
the RFID industry.

The new KSW Thinlam®, with a thickness down to 280µm, sets new
standards for card manufacturing. It enables manufacturers to produce
HF and UHF RFID cards with more layers, broadening the possibilities
to integrate more security and other high value features into cards.
The exceptional thinness is achieved by manufacturing the Thinlam®
without chip modules - which also results in smoother card surfaces
and better printing outcome. Thinlam® maintains the highest
durability thanks to its unique patented chip connection technology.
In addition, due to the consistently reproducible antenna geometries,
KSW Thinlam® achieves tighter resonance frequency tolerances.
Thinlam® can be manufactured on PVC, Polycarbonate, PET or Teslin®
and can also be used for transparent RFID cards thanks to its
excellent optical characteristics.

Thinlam® is the ideal solution for any contactless personal
identification application, where security, performance and design
are important. Presented at Cartes & Identification and at ID WORLD,
it received great feedback from partners, customers and visitors at
both shows and is now available in volume quantities.

Other major product introductions from KSW this year include the new
eGO dual frequency (HF/UHF) contactless transponder, the improved
RFID-based VarioSens® Label with integrated temperature sensor and
the contactless payment RFID sticker for mobile phones.
