Holtronic Ltd., which is a specialist designer and manufacturer of smart temperature as well as time monitoring devices, has introduced new range of electronic indicators for supply chain, which are designed to protect temperature-sensitive shipments throughout the food, pharmaceutical, and life science spheres. The neo® electronic indicators for supply chain provide improved accuracy when compared to chemical-based alternatives while maintaining the same small form factor along with robustness for package level tracking.
Holtronic’s new headline product is a reusable electronic temperature and time indicator in the suite of precision monitoring solutions. The reusable neo is designed to minimize the waste and costs that come with traditional temperature-tracking devices and can be safely reset and reused a maximum of 90 times before it needs to be replaced. The unit has been developed to drastically reduce environmental waste while offering strict quality control and auditability through the use of a specialized reset device that prevents unintentional tampering or unapproved resets.
The neo indicator can be reused and was developed following significant demand coming from sectors like rail and airline food catering, where food is served on the go and is not required to be returned to inventory if it has been kept at the correct temperature.
The neo® indicator new range of electronic indicators is a low-cost, simple-to-use indicator that travels alongside shipped goods and provides a simple visual alert when temperature parameters move outside a certain range without the requirement of complex software.
- Downloadable Reporting – Customers can download a comprehensive temperature history and status report in order to facilitate GDP compliance, audit requirements, and quality assurance processes.
- Multi-Use – Each unit can go on to be safely reset with a dedicated reset device for reuse multiple times.
- Tamper-Proof Design – The specialized reset unit prevents unauthorized or accidental resetting, enhancing the integrity of data and security.
- Audit Ready – Each unit is equipped with a scannable QR code tied to the serial number and calibration certificate in order to ensure easy traceability and compliance assistance.
- Sustainable Impact – Lower environmental waste and operational overhead than traditional single-use alternatives.
According to Commercial Director of Holtronic, Nora Murphy, “At Holtronic, we believe temperature and time monitoring should combine smart engineering with practical, everyday usability. With the launch of the resettable, reusable neo, we are offering businesses an accurate, practical, sustainable, and cost-effective way to protect product integrity throughout complex supply chains from long-haul transport to last-mile delivery.”
The UK-based team of engineers and designers from Holtronic works directly with customers right from concept to delivery, ensuring customized solutions, regulatory compliance, and also tailored branding. The company said it anticipates announcing more new innovative products soon.
