I am the CEO and co-founder of Voyantic, a company that specializes in RFID test and measurement solutions. Before starting Voyantic in 2004, I worked as a researcher at the Helsinki University of Technology focusing on passive RFID sensing for moisture in building structures.

To Our Customers
The COVID-19 pandemic is affecting people and businesses around the world. Voyantic is putting the safety of our employees and customers first, as well as the safety of the people most vulnerable in our society. We have limited traveling, and most of us are working from home – we have only minimum personnel at the office.
Meanwhile, Voyantic is fully in business. We are fulfilling orders, making deliveries, and creating new solutions. We have been working hard to develop our supply chain to ensure that we can maintain our delivery times. Our technical team is also fully staffed, supporting customers every day.
We are doing our best to minimize the effects of the pandemic for your business, our business and to our employees.
Voyantic, the global leader in performance measurement solutions for RFID (radio frequency identification), is proud to announce that they have started marketing co-operation together with Noora Honkala, a 25-year-old Finnish ultra runner.
Ultramarathon, also called ultra running, is any long-distance running race longer than the traditional marathon length of 42.195 kilometers. Despite of her young age compared to most ultra runners, Noora Honkala already holds the National record for both 12-hour and 24-hour running. She is also the youngest woman ever to finish Spartathlon, a 246-kilometer ultramarathon race held annually in Greece.
“The new co-operation with Voyantic enables my comprehensive and professional sports career. Ultra running is a very demanding sport and to succeed on it on top level, one needs to invest in it full time. Versatile practicing in good conditions is in key position.” explains Noora Honkala. “Now I am able to plan long term and execute my season in the best possible way to succeed in my future goals; the World Championships of 100 kilometer running in 2018, and the World Championships of 24-hour running in 2019.” she rejoices.
“We are excited about the co-operation with Noora as we share the same values of long term commitment and dedication to reach ambitious targets. Another common factor for Noora in sports and for Voyantic in business is the importance of service and maintenance team to enable and ensure continuous high performance under any circumstances.” says Harri Tulimaa, Vice President of Sales at Voyantic.
Voyantic is the global leader in performance measurement solutions for RFID. The company started delivering Tagformance Laboratory measurement systems in 2007 and Tagsurance Production testers in 2011. Since then our systems have been delivered to 33 countries in 5 continents. Over the years the Voyantic offering has been extended from UHF to cover also HF/NFC frequencies and increased functionality for application testing, protocol analysis and encoding.
Voyantic is proud to announce that the company recently reached a remarkable milestone, when the 500th RFID test system produced by the company was delivered to Datamars SA. Datamars has made large use of both Voyantic lab equipment (Tagformance) and test production equipment (Tagsurance) since 2012.
During the last years, Datamars’ Laundrychips™ have continuously outperformed the market growth – especially after the introduction of UHF ones – thanks to constant innovation and systematic focus on quality that is widely recognized by the company’s customers. A fundamental contribution to Datamars transponders’ quality has been provided by Voyantic test equipment in both design and production phase (performance characterization and reliability tests).
“Thanks to the brilliant results we got, in the last years we kept on improving the performance of our tags and the reliability of our production lines, in order to face the new challenges coming from the market.” says Antonio Gallizzi, UHF Project Manager at Datamars. “Voyantic is a reference point in the RFID world and over the years they strengthened our ability to analyze both the tag design and the production quality control.”
During the design phase of Datamars products, Tagformance provided fundamental information (such as the transponder frequency response, both in single read and in bulk), thanks to which the company made right decisions regarding the new product up to the slightest detail. With Tagsurance systems Datamars can guarantee the electrical performances of 100% of its UHF products, with a clear advantage in terms of quality perception of the end user.
“We appreciate having had Datamars as our valued customer during the past 5 years. It has been a pleasure to see Datamars decisively investing in RFID quality and utilizing Voyantic solutions from tag design and performance verification all the way to high volume production testing” says Harri Tulimaa, Vice President of Sales at Voyantic.
The 500th Voyantic system was delivered to Datamars production facility in Thailand, where several Voyantic testers have been integrated in the production process. To celebrate this milestone, on June 27th 2017 Mr. Harri Tulimaa handed over a memento to the Datamars team in Lugano, Switzerland as a token of appreciation and dedication for RFID quality that both companies embrace and foster in their strategy and operations.
