Satamatics offers satellite-based reefer monitoring system
Satamatics, a provider of asset tracking and monitoring services, has launched a product aimed at the refrigerated cargo market.
The new Reefermatics service, which uses satellites and a satellite modems for tracking, will initially be targeted at the U.S. trucking, rail and container industry.
The company says Reefermatics' tracking system provides essential information on a refrigerated trailer’s status, location, temperature set point, fuel levels, battery and history.
Operating over the Inmarsat D+ satellite network, the new solution is also able to remotely start and control refrigerated systems.
The system will provide end users 'with real-time information for better management, usage and protection of refrigerated cargo and the assets that move them,' said Brian Hester, president and chief operating officer of Satamatics.
