Cooltrax announced that Schwan’s Global Supply Chain Inc., the manufacturing arm of The Schwan Food Company, has selected Cooltrax Fresh inTransit to equip its private fleet of refrigerated trailers with real-time cold chain tracking and monitoring.

Fresh inTransit tracks the location of refrigerated trailers and monitors all aspects of the performance of the fridge unit and provides independent reefer temperature monitoring using combined telemetry and wireless RFID technologies.

With Fresh inTransit real-time temperature, fridge performance and location information for any number of assets can be viewed through a single, Web-based interface, 24/7, from anywhere in the world.

Temperature and other performance violations are reported immediately via SMS and/or email to enable pro-active management. Detailed graphs and reports are also available to provide an intuitive record of historical information.

This real-time processing of information translates to increased shelf life, consistency of temperature and validation of product integrity.
