Many retail chains in Europe, such as Carrefour in France and Media Markt in Germany, and the US have adopted smart e-paper labels.
In addition smart e-paper labels used in retail operation, EIH has developed models for use in logistics operation and in baggage labels through cooperation with Germany-based vendor Rimowa, Ko indicated.
