Maritime Containers Tracking
The maritime container industry is the backbone of global trade, enabling the efficient, cost-effective, and reliable movement of goods across continents. This industry has transformed the way products are manufactured, distributed, and delivered, making it a cornerstone of the modern global economy.
In an era of unpredictable market conditions and global disruptions (especially post-covid), the container industry plays a critical role in ensuring supply chain resilience. Its ability to adapt to changing demands and maintain a steady flow of goods is vital for economic stability.
However, the maritime container industry faces several risks. Containers may go missing, operational delays can disrupt schedules, and some containers may incur damage.
Containers missing?
Damaged containers?
Delays and demurrage fees?
All dry containers have four vent hoods in each corner. Replace one of them with a smart tracker.
Easy installation:
1 - Tracker embedded into a Vent Hood
2 - Installed like any other Vent Hood
3 - Indistinguishable from the other Vents from the outside

As maritime shipping becomes the core of supply chain and worldwide commerce, extra attention is needed to naval operations to optimize and be responsive to the tight schedules and immense cargo load and ensure safe and secure operations.
The rise in container transportation has paralleled an increase in criminal activities. With more shipments moving globally, detecting illegal operations becomes increasingly challenging, as it becomes easier for nefarious goods to be hidden among legitimate products.
The struggle against smuggling has evolved into a dynamic cat-and-mouse game: as law enforcement enhances its training and capabilities, criminals continuously adapt with ever-more ingenious methods.
Recently a maritime vessel was apprehended with 20 tons of cocaine, which incurs a substantial financial impact (more than $700 million in penalties!). Beyond financial impact, the reputational brand damages are hard to overcome.
Technology can help detecting suspicious activities in real time. Sensefinity's sensor system utilizes light, vibration, and magnetic activity to monitor door open/close events.
On land, it provides instant alerts for unauthorized actions, while at sea it logs and communicates events as soon as the vessel nears the coast.
These alerts empower operators to promptly notify authorities. Additionally, the historical data collected helps pinpoint those responsible and serves as solid evidence.
An informed, transparent supply chain workflow is essential in combating crime and smuggling, whether it involves drugs, counterfeit goods, or human trafficking.
