The digital freight paper for logistics

Anyone who moves pallets, containers and transport boxes in a regular goods cycle knows the procedure: The load carriers are repeatedly labelled with new freight documents during their transport. This costs time, manpower and resources – and is prone to errors. Paper labels can be lost, incorrectly attached, damaged or soiled and become illegible. The solution is an end-to-end digital process: Digital Label & Goods Tracking replaces the paper label with a digital freight paper that integrates energy-saving display, temperature and shock sensors, GPS and a mobile connection to the Cloud of Things. All the relevant product information is always available and up to date. The condition and position of the goods can be tracked along the entire transport route.

Your benefits with Digital Label & Goods Tracking in overview

Digitalize logistics
Turn your analog paperwork into an end-to-end digital logistics process. Track the location and condition of your delivery on the monitor.

Save time and conserve resources
Instead of manually sticking over old labels with new ones several times during transport, the e-label automatically changes its delivery data via geofencing. This saves paper and helps protect the environment.

Minimize errors
No more unreadable, torn or wrongly affixed paper labels: The e-label always provides everyone involved in the supply chain with the correct and most up-to-date information about the goods.

Document irregularities
If the cargo is damaged or exposed to high temperatures, the sensors sound the alarm – both via a warning on the display and via SMS and e-mail to the carrier. This prevents damaged parts from entering production.

Application examples for each sector

Challenge: Freight documents have to be filled out, printed, glued and removed again, can be lost and contain mistakes. This costs time, is prone to errors and causes waste.
Solution: All the information can be loaded from the merchandise management system onto the digital freight paper. If the goods reach a previously defined limit (geofence), the destination on the display changes automatically. The e-label also saves the industry thousands of tons of paper per year.
Challenge: There is a lack of transparency about room occupancy and maintenance in office and commercial buildings. This results in double occupancy and unnecessary security patrols.
Solution: The e-label on the door shows on its display the current and future occupancy of a conference room or the cleaning plan for washrooms.

No more paper in logistics

The logistics industry continues to rely on analogue freight documents instead of digital documents. Torsten Chudobba of T-Systems and his colleagues have developed a tracking device based on an e-reader that accompanies transport boxes or containers including digital documents on their way to their destination.
