Container Tracking & Pallet Tracking

Smart container and pallet tracking solutions give you real-time, end-to-end asset visibility and data to monitor, track and recover your assets throughout the supply chain. This protects your assets, your profits and your reputation. For example, you can instantly locate assets that have been stored in the wrong place, taken to the wrong location or stolen from your supply chain. 

Geofencing capabilities allow you to get instant alerts to any connected device if your cargo moves outside of predefined geographical locations. In case of a stolen or missing container or pallet, Orion scanners in beacon mode can pinpoint the exact location of the missing asset. You can then recover your assets and the goods they contain as well as increase the chance of securing an arrest and conviction.

Attaching a low-power radio tag and IoT-enabled sensors to your containers and pallets gives you greater visibility of the products you are carrying and the location in the supply chain. With our smart tracking solutions, you can use real-time data to check that the right product is reaching your production lines in the right quantity and meeting quality assurance guidelines, thus saving money on waste and product recalls.

In addition, our solutions allow you to take control of your stock by automating repurchasing schedules and building more efficient working relationships with your third party suppliers.

Along with location data, the system can monitor a wide range of container and pallet conditions, depending on what is most important to you and your business. The tags and IoT enabled sensors relay pre-defined data according to your needs. This data can include time, temperature, tamper, speed, latitude, longitude, battery information, shock reports and more. By monitoring these environmental factors, you can assess the potential impact on perishable goods in transit to reduce waste, maintain product quality and integrity and enhance the customer experience.

Smarter Technologies’ Orion Data Network puts you in complete control of your containers wherever they are in the world, with key data analytics fed back to HQ in real time.
