Frequently Asked Questions
By enabling the efficient and sustainable use of reusable packaging, Sensize asset tracking helps companies stay compliant with the EU’s PPWR regulation, which makes producers responsible for recycling their packaging at the end of use.
In the US, businesses must monitor the temperature of food. This is achievable at the crate/box level with Sensize tracking.
When companies invest in high-quality reusable assets, they must have a way of ensuring they stay within the supply chain and return to them to be reused.
Otherwise, they are simply not reusable!
Tracking solves this problem, allowing customers to know where their containers are so they can collect and reuse them at the end of each cycle.
Our Sensize trackers are used on reusable containers such as pallets, boxes, beer crates, plastic crates and roll cages.
In short, Sensize works with container pooling businesses, post and parcel companies, retailers and other organizations to help them see where their reusable assets are in the supply chain.
Using our bespoke Sensize Tracking System, users can gain full visibility and easily access valuable location and temperature data, helping them reduce leakage, cut costs and streamline their supply chains.
The key difference is that we don’t just use one type of tracker. Many tracking systems use one type of tracker that is added to all assets.
Our system consists of Parent trackers and Child trackers. Parent trackers are placed on around 1% of the assets in a fleet and Child trackers on the remaining assets.
This reduces the cost of tracking and no infrastructure is required.
At Sensize, we also offer trackers of varying sizes and shapes for different assets, ensuring each one is most suitable for its use case.
If you’re not using asset tracking, you’re missing out on valuable insights into how your assets are used.
When we start working with new customers, it almost always turns out that their assets are being used in ways they don’t expect, such as being taken to locations they are unaware of, held for lengthy periods of time in certain locations or being sold on the second-hand market.
Tracking allows for full visibility of these potential challenges and provides customers with the data they need to make informed changes.
