Digitalize your logistics processes with RFID to effectively reduce both costs and carbon footprint.
Lack of transparency in supply chains and error-prone processes in order picking and loading lead to delivery errors, additional costs, and increased CO2 emissions in logistics and production. TURCK addresses this challenge with digital track-and-trace solutions based on RFID and intelligent logistics software that automatically record and monitor material flows at central hubs. The technology enables end-to-end identification, transparent inventory management, and real-time data for warehousing, transport, and loading. This allows errors to be detected and prevented early on, accelerates processes, and reduces backorders. Companies benefit from greater planning reliability, more efficient workflows, lower operating costs, and a sustainably optimized supply chain with improved resource utilization.
Delivery errors in non-transparent supply chains are a problem for all parties involved: the shipper must search for and have missing products subsequently delivered; the recipient must pause or reschedule processes. Logistics and transport service providers must integrate the subsequent delivery into their planning at short notice or organize additional trips. Errors often occur during picking or loading into transport vehicles. A technical solution must therefore reliably monitor both processes without delaying them.
RFID technology with intelligent logistics software reliably prevents delivery errors and quickly pays off for all parties involved in the supply chain: the shipper saves on any recourse costs, searches and administrative costs. The recipient can rely on timely and error-free delivery and plan with confidence. By sending notifications, all parties involved can avoid additional trips and waiting times, which effectively reduces CO2 emissions in the supply chain and thus protects the climate and budgets.
RFID at strategic hubs prevents logistics errors, and minimizes costs and carbon footprint
RFID-based shipment verification guarantees that shipments are processed correctly and shipping processes are transparent, even at peak times.
Effect on sustainability
Shipping errors result in returns and additional delivery trips, which can be easily avoided with RFID support.
RFID-based warehouse and inventory management guarantees that goods can be located any all times and stock information is always current.
Effect on sustainability
Precise inventory data enables targeted planning for energy-efficient utilization of production plants and transport vehicles.
RFID-based management of reusable load carrier pools (RTI — returnable transport items) guarantees permanent transparency and timely provision of RTI.
Effect on sustainability
RTI have a better environmental footprint than disposable packaging. RFID-based pool management of RTI increases this effect by utilizing transport and storage capacities more efficiently.
Every logistics fault results in costs and preventable emissions. The "Three steps to a more sustainable supply chain" white paper sets out how track-and-trace systems can prevent errors in your supply chain and as a result improve its sustainability.
Even outside of supply chains, automation can make your production more efficient and energy-saving. Find out which solutions we can offer to support you on this journey on our sustainability page.
