REUSABLE IOT DEVICES FOR REAL-TIME MONITORING OF GOODS AND TO REDUCE PRODUCT LOSS
50% OF GOODS ARE TRANSPORTED IN SEA CONTAINERS, AND MORE THAN 50% OF THEM ARE REPORTED AS LOSSES. According to the FAO, one third of the food produced each year is wasted, approximately 1.6 billion tonnes of food, and about 14% of this happens during transport. These losses have a huge environmental, social and economic impact.
The good news is that these losses can be reduced by up to 75% with timely and quality information, but the technologies that enable this are very expensive, and can only be applied to high value-added products. CLCircular offers a real-time monitoring service for the logistics chain, using reusable rentable IoT sensors that collect data on environmental parameters during transport and storage of perishable products on a cloud, to gain visibility and control, allowing processes to be optimised and losses to be reduced. GAIKER Technology Centre participated as a collaborator in this project with CLCircular.
