The new service the ZIMwill offer its customers, leverages advanced technologies
in combination with ZIM’s professional staff, to provide a complete and
exclusive logistics solution, first of its kind, for sensitive and valuable cargoes.
Container Monitoring
Remote monitoring of temperature-controlled containers is currently gaining momentum thanks to new matured technologies..
There are now several similar technological solutions available on the market, all designed to give the owners of valuable and
sensitive cargoes greater peace of mind through real-time shipment status tracking, temperature control alerts, unauthorized
container access alerts and more information.
Receiving an alert regarding an abnormal temperature, inactive generator, or unauthorized door opening, is just the first
step. Next, a technician or member of crew must be dispatched to solve the problem, and attend as necessary in order to
bring the container back to its proper condition. This is the main added value of ZIM’s complete service package: taking full
advantage of the technology while preventing damage to sensitive and valuable goods that could result in costs stretching
into the millions.
