Levallois-Perret and Valence, France, June 3, 2025 — Linxens, a global leader in component-based solutions for authentication and traceability, and Dracula Technologies, a pioneer in ambient light energy harvesting, have announced a strategic collaboration to develop next-generation autonomous IoT solutions for traceability and smart labelling applications. This collaboration paves the way for smarter and more sustainable connected devices.
Dracula Technologies has developed a breakthrough organic photovoltaic (OPV) technology, LAYER®, capable of harvesting energy even in low or intermittent indoor light. In this collaboration, its OPV modules will be integrated into Linxens’ smart label and traceability solutions. Linxens contributes its expertise in the design and industrial production of electronic inlays and flexible components, which are key elements in RFID tags, to create fully battery-free, reusable, and energy-autonomous smart labels.
Together, the two companies are addressing one of the key limitations of today’s connected labels: reliance on batteries, which reduces lifespan and increases environmental impact. This collaboration represents a technological leap forward, enabling long-lasting, cost-effective, and sustainable traceability solutions for logistics and other industries where durability and energy independence are essential.
