The Smart Glass Tracking Solution
A solution for unique business needs
Asset tracking device
Asset tracking devices are attached to glass and window stillages to collect location and movement data.
The devices send notifications to data platforms when the glass is delivered or damaged, and include accompanying documentation and images.
Connectivity to the 0G Network
Choosing the right IoT connectivity is crucial to ensure effective asset tracking. The 0G Network allows for efficient and cost-effective tracking of devices with long-lasting battery life and minimal risk. It has a wide coverage spanning over 70 countries.
Data-visualisation platform
Tailored to fix supply chain problems.
The platform helps you track where your assets are and how long they are idle using location-based reports. This enables automation of inventory management and forecasting peak seasons to optimise stock levels.
An asset tracking solution you can rely on
- Deliver Flat Glass to customers on time
- Avoid losing glass stillages
- Benefit from the seamless network coverage without infrastructure set-up requirements
