Transfesa real time box monitors

Madrid, Spain: Transfesa is using Thermo King’s BlueBox and TracKing telematics to montirop loads in its CoolRail service.

The system allows Transfesa to use ThermoKare 24/7 Fleet Monitoring service, a new real-time monitoring system for refrigerated fleets.

“ThermoKare 24/7 Fleet Monitoring is more than just an alarm that notifies the fleet manager about a problem with the cargo. We’ve combined the technology, knowledge, and service infrastructure to support our customers throughout every step of their cargo’s journey,” said Alain van Schaik, key strategic account manager at Thermo King.

“With ThermoKare 24/7 Fleet Monitoring, Thermo King experts are centrally monitoring Transfesa’s refrigeration units and the temperature in the containers. In case of urgency that may affect the cargo, they can immediately take action and fix the problem remotely, or let the customer know about the situation and provide with a solution at the nearest service station.“

“Knowing that the condition in which our cargo travels is monitored and controlled by true specialists, gives us the peace of mind to focus on the rest of our operations,” Pedro Ramos Vila, global account manager, Transfesa Logistics said.

“Throughout the six months of using Thermo King’s 24/7 Fleet Monitoring, it has saved us at least three full cargo loads of perishable shipments. Those loads would be wasted, if not the intervention of the Thermo King monitoring teams.”
