RM2 named to Food Logistics’ 2020 FL100+ Top Software and Technology Providers
Reusable IoT Pallet Supplier Recognized for ELIoT™ Embedded Traceability Technology
Food Logistics has named RM2 to its 2020 FL100+ Top Software and Technology Providers list. The annual FL100+ Top Software and Technology Provider’s honors leading software and technology providers that ensure a safe, efficient, and reliable global food and beverage supply chain.
RM2 launched the smart pallet revolution by embedding autonomous IoT sensor technology in its logistically optimized, hygienic BLOCKPal™ reusable pallets. This technology, called ELIoT (End-to-End Logistics Intelligence Optimization Technology) offers food supply chains unprecedented visibility and real-time monitoring of product location, temperature, shock events, and chain of custody. RM2’s pallets are made of a non-wood composite material that is lightweight yet stronger pound-for-pound than structural steel. This non-porous, hygienic material is also tolerant of extreme temperatures (from -40° F to 176° F) making it ideal for food supply chains and even ultra-low temperature pharmaceutical cold chains.
“We are honored to be recognized on the FL100 list for our BLOCKPal pallets and ELIoT technology,” commented Kevin Mazula, CEO of RM2, “As cold chains seek higher performance, cold-tolerant non-wood pallets, and real-time temperature tracking, our IoT pallets stand ready to meet these demands.”
“From fleet management to warehouse management to simply just track and trace along the cold food chain, these software and technology providers have definitely stepped it up to ensure cold food and beverage products continue moving along the line without incident,” says Maina Mayer, editor-in-chief of Food Logistics and Supply & Demand Chain Executive. “This pandemic has thrown the food industry a curveball, but many of these providers fast-tracked the development and deployment of their solutions to ensure food safety, traceability, visibility, and quality assurance. So, to these winners and others in the industry working to make a difference, thank you!”
Companies on this year’s 2020 FL100+ Top Software and Technology Providers list will be profiled in the November/December 2020 issue of Food Logistics, as well as online at www.foodlogistics.com.
