Improving cold chain logistics with a temperature monitoring label

The pharma and food logistics sectors lose sector lose €31.2bn and €27.6bn a year respectively through poor temperature control in the while in transport. Excessive heat or cold during transit can degrade pharmaceuticals or render them useless, and make highly perishable foods inedible or potentially hazardous for consumers. Logistics companies invest €33bn each year in IoT technologies for temperature monitoring. But current solutions still use costly and cumbersome data logging technologies, with limited or no data analytics capacity, low automation and irregular RFID communication. Svalinn is a automatic temperature logger for land, sea and air logistics. It gives a full temperature and geolocation log on each package or shipment from the start to the end of the transit, with programmable intervals and temperature alert thresholds.
