Twinkle twinkle little star…

Improvements to asset tracking technology are ushering in lower deployment costs, increased accessibility, and unique use cases. ORBCOMM, a pioneer in IoT technology with over 30 years of experience, is leading the charge with their cost-effective dry trailer and container solution.

Zim Integrated Shipping Services is the latest operator to announce a deal to fit tracking devices to its fleet of dry freight containers.

Hapag-Lloyd, which is leading the liner shipping industry when it comes to fitting smart devices to its dry freight containers, has announced that the majority of its fleet will be smart by the beginning of next year.

Rochelle Park (NJ)-based ORBCOMM Inc, which is one of the leading innovators in the development of IoT technology for the supply chain and equipment asset management businesses, has launched a new solar-powered asset tracking device.

After installing Carrier’s Lynx hardware on some of its fleet last year, ZIM has now selected ORBCOMM’s ReeferConnect platform to manage its reefer fleet.

The CT 3500 IoT telematics device is “the next evolution in smart management of refrigerated containers and their cargoes”.
