Le container connecté né à l'EPFL qui révolutionne le fret maritime

LogTech company, AELER, has launched its new generation container, ‘Unit One’, at the Singapore Maritime Week.

The container industry is evolving, and we believe in the power of collective transformation. To maximise the container’s potential, we need to create added value through visibility, efficiency, and sustainability. This includes integrating advanced technologies, fostering collaboration within the industry, and transforming the container into a generator of added value.

Geofencing employs geo-coordinates to create virtual perimeters around a specific location, enabling the real-time monitoring of IoT-enabled containers as they enter or leave designated zones. This technology revolutionises logistics management by offering unprecedented visibility and control over container movements. It enhances operational efficiency and security across the global supply chain by allowing companies to monitor and stipulate where, for example, a truck carrying high-value pharmaceuticals or luxury goods can stop. Safe zones can be designated for rests, food, or bathroom breaks to ensure the security of the cargo.
