LPWA Technology and IoT to Change How the Cold Chain Operates

One of the most impactful new developments is a category of wireless technology called low-power, wide-area (LPWA) technology, along with other new innovations the emergent IoT will offer the cold chains of the future.

Many vendors utilize passive data loggers in order to keep costs down. But because of the extreme increases in battery life and reduced module costs offered by LPWA technologies, these savings can be pushed into other investments, like purchasing more active loggers.

New standards address second-largest segment of U.S. transportation in terms of emissions and energy use.

The final standards are expected to lower CO2 emissions by approximately 1.1 billion metric tons, save vehicle owners fuel costs of about $170 billion, and reduce oil consumption by up to two billion barrels over the lifetime of the vehicles sold under the program.

Temperature Control Technology Responds to Rising Perishable Food Demand

Logistics providers tap a bevy of innovations to maintain cold chain integrity.

Lineage Logistics’ high pressure processing system uses elevated hydrostatic pressures of up to 87,000 psi to reduce overall microbiological contaminant flora and pathogens.

Buying Versus Leasing: Factors to Consider

The decision to own or lease rests on the operator’s specific needs; total cost of ownership is always critical.
