Smart containers a new level in the field of logistics.
What do we know about logistics? In short, it is the transport of goods from point A to point B, but the science of logistics, if one may say so, is much more complicated. It is necessary not only to transfer the goods, but to do it quickly, efficiently and preferably inexpensively. When transporting food is very important to comply with the temperature in the cabin, otherwise all the goods will deteriorate and will not be suitable. Competition in logistics is very large, but there are simply no special differences between the campaigns that provide this service, or they are very insignificant.
As you have already guessed, today we will talk about a project that plans to change the logistics market with its new chips. So, meet - Smart Containers.
What is Smart Containers?
Smart Containers is a symbiosis of logistics and blockchain technology. The project came to us from Switzerland. The company Smart Containers Group is functioning for today and wants to make a splash in the field of logistics. The direction is quite narrow - it is transportation of food products and pharmaceuticals in safe containers with a controlled temperature, which ensures complete safety of the product during transportation.
Principle of operation
Thanks to the blockchain technology, the platform provides only actual data on the transport of goods, ensuring full transparency of operations within the network. Using smart IoT containers allows the client to deliver quickly, easily and reliably. There are several options for working with Smart Containers - you can purchase a container, or rent for one transportation or several or even rent for a whole year at once. Terms of lease are individual for each client.
In Smart Containers there is a department called SkyCell and is engaged in air transportation. This year SkyCell has already began accepting payments in the form of a crypto currency.
Nowadays the project team is developing a new product, which is a stand-alone container 4.0. This is a smart container in which you can manage the temperature settings. This container will work with blockchain technology so that you can track the logistics system.
Platform Features
- Each container will be equipped with IoT-sensors, which control the temperature and form statistics of work in real time;
- The client can at any time request information about the condition of the goods anywhere in the world;
- Transparency of the whole system;
- Invoices are automatically generated;
- Payment for services in the project's crypto currency;
- Operative transportation of cargoes;
- Innovative software;
- Low transaction costs.
Conclusion
The project is rather unusual, but in my opinion very promising. From the pluses, that the company is operating and has already managed to prove itself in the logistics market.
If you are interested in a project, you want to invest in it or just get more information - at the bottom I left links to official sources!

I do not see the possibility of application in my country yet. We have a very skeptical people. But I think that over time they will appreciate the benefits of using such technology in the food and medical market
And where are you from??
