theft of products in retail stores or shoplifting of books from library. These tags are
attached to products or books and are deactivated or removed when the item is sold out
to consumers. This helps in enhancing the profit margin and operating efficiency of the
retailers. EAS systems have EAS technology, which detects and sounds an alarm if the item
with active tags passes through the gated area of the retail store. EAS systems reduce the
cost of labor to be employed at stores for the purpose of preventing theft by customers.
EAS tags are ideal for delicate garments as they do no harm to the garment. It also helps
retailers with brand enhancement of the product and simplifies management as retailers
do not have to take measures to avoid the employees from stealing the goods. Customers
feel at ease and comfortable at retail stores with EAS systems as employers do not stare at
them while they shop. These systems threaten the thieves from stealing the goods. The
theft rate of retail stores with EAS systems is 60%-70% lower than the non-EAS stores.
Technological advancement in EAS system such as source tagging allows for smooth
logistics flow as these tags are attached to the product at the point of manufacture and
does not require manual labeling of merchandize, thereby saving time and money for the
retailers. It also allows retailers to focus on sales rather than on preventing their goods
from theft. However, recent discovery by doctors that EAS systems in stores can disrupt
the pacemaker devices of the patients and can cause them to drop beats. This discovery is
to hamper the EAS system growth over the forecast period. Moreover, high cost of
implementing EAS systems pose a challenge to this market.
The market can be segmented on the basis of end-users, EAS components and EAS system
type. The EAS system type includes magnetic systems, acousto-magnetic systems, radio
frequency systems and microwave systems. Magnetic systems are made up of strip of
amorphous metal and detection is achieved with the help of transmitter and receiver. The
EAS components consist of electronic antenna, deactivator or detacher and electronic tag.
Antenna has electronic circuit board system which sounds alarm when electronic tags
passes by it. EAS systems are being used in apparel and fashion accessories stores,
cosmetics and pharmaceuticals, and supermarkets and large grocery stores. Employees

having easy access to inventory store often steal retail goods. This segment reported for
the highest retail shrinkage currently. Thereby, it is necessary to install EAS systems in
these retail outlets. The cosmetics and pharmaceutical stores are more vulnerable to retail
shrinkage as shoplifters focus on small and easily concealable items. These products
include face creams and perfumes as well as pharmaceutical products such as fever, cold
and cough and antibiotics medicine. Supermarkets and large grocery stores install EAS for
managing their inventories and preventing thefts of all kind of products.
Europe, North America and APAC dominated the market recently on account of increasing
cosmetic and pharmaceutical retail stores as well as supermarkets and large grocery store.
According to annual Global Retail Theft Barometer, UK and Europe retailers lost a huge
amount to shoplifting in 2014, with wine, accessories, lingerie, razor blades and fresh
meat. Increasing installation of EAS system in UK and Europe is expected to drive the
market over the forecast period.
Key players in this industry are Checkpoint Systems Inc., Tekno Electro Solutions, Tyco
Retail Solutions, ALL-TAG Security Americas Inc., Ketec Inc., Nedap N.V., Sentry Technology
Corp. and Tag Co. Leading players are expanding their product line in order to retain their
market shares.
In June 2016, ALL-TAG Security Americas Inc. announced the release of RFID-Ink that allows
retailers to combine RFID and EAS into a single tag that will result in double measure of
protection for the product.
