A trucking company specialising in cold chain transportation for food and industrial clients chose Fourtec when they needed a monitoring solution that allowed for real-time visibility of data, quick access to data and compliance across various routes and temperature requirements.
The customer faced a number of monitoring challenges, including:
- Needing to monitor multiple loggers simultaneously in real time.
- Ensuring accurate, reliable environmental data for compliance and traceability.
- Detecting deviations early to prevent product spoilage and losses.
- Supporting diverse cold chain requirements without adding complexity.
To overcome these challenges, the company deployed Fourtec’s BluLite Bluetooth Low Energy data loggers with the Wireless Overview feature.
The Wireless Overview screen available in the FourtecLite app offers a streamlined interface for real-time monitoring of multiple wireless loggers. The key capabilities include the real-time display of temperature and humidity data, centralised view of all BluLite BLE and WiFi loggers and customisable logger arrangements for prioritised monitoring.
The company deployed several BluLite units, available from ESIS, in key cargo locations. Drivers and receivers can now view all in-range loggers on one screen with live updates.
Predefined logger names, measurement ranges, and alarm thresholds ensure fast identification of any issue. At checkpoints, the Boomerang feature automatically emails PDF reports to QA and compliance teams.
Real results
The solution has delivered a range of benefits, including:
- Real-time multi-logger visibility with no added infrastructure.
- Faster response to environmental deviations.
- Reduced product loss and financial risk.
- Automated, audit-ready documentation for regulatory needs.
- Enhanced customer trust in cold chain integrity.
