    Ship smart

    • Position tracking allows real-time tracking of your freight, helping you protect your valuable goods with:

      • Improved risk management: follow your shipment’s journey from door-to-door using our IoT platform. Receive alerts for any deviations or delays.
      • An "invisible" solution: provides security without attracting any attention. However, if any issue should arise, the route details can assist with claim management and future risk mitigation.
      • Increased supply chain efficiency: lets you strategically improve your transit time every step of the way.

    • If your shipments need specific temperature or moisture conditions, we have the right solution with:

      • End-to-end temperature monitoring: receive an instant temperature deviation alert so you can take immediate action and coordinate a replacement shipment if needed.
      • Continuous data logging: even when the shipment is out of coverage range, our data loggers keep working, so you know transport conditions from start to finish.
      • Future mitigation: we can conduct a full analysis to mitigate the risk of temperature and humidity fluctuations for your future shipments.

    • Our tilt sensors help monitor the proper shipping and handling of motion-sensitive goods such as liquids, flowers, or heavy equipment with:

      • Visual alert: our tilt sensors display a visible alert when a shipment has been tipped on its side or completely upended, encouraging careful handling.
      • Custom configuration: alerts can be configured to immediately inform you if a shipment has been tipped or tilted or if other deviations occur.
      • Liquid/chemical safety: our tilt sensors are ideal for liquid and chemical shipments that need to remain upright during transport.

    • Shock monitoring immediately lets you know if your shipments experience unexpected vibrations with:

      • Shock sensors: our innovative shock sensors allow you to determine G-force impact, the direction of impact, time, and location.
      • Real-time communication: know instantly when your shipment experiences a shock en route.
      • Asset protection: assets are at high risk of damage during transport. Our invaluable shock data is often required when shipping fragile freight.


    • Some valuable shipments should never be opened during transit. Our light sensors immediately alert you when light deviates from what’s expected for:

      • Increased security: light sensors help detect when goods have been tampered with, or truck doors opened en route.
      • Invisible protection: protect your high-value goods with our reliable yet "invisible" light sensors.
      • Immediate alarm: an alarm is triggered instantly when the light deviates from configured settings so you can take immediate action to protect your goods and have valuable data for claims management
