FECC/Packwise Webinar: Smart Container to ensure supply chain resilience (BASF Success Story)

Описание: Imagine producing with high-tech sensors but losing all visibility the moment your product leaves the factory. In the process industry, this is reality – an opaque "black box" of logistics plagued by manual processes, lost containers, and quality risks.

In this video, we analyze the intelligent solution closing this information gap. Based on an FECC webinar, we show how the collaboration between technology company Packwise and chemical giant BASF is making supply chains more resilient, efficient, and sustainable.

Learn in this video:
The Problem: Why even advanced companies lose control once containers (e.g., IBCs) leave the warehouse – and the costly consequences.

The Hardware Solution: The Packwise SmartCap – a robust IoT device that sticks to a container in under a minute, delivering real-time data on fill level, location, temperature, and shocks.

The Software Solution: The Packwise Flow Platform – the dashboard that consolidates all data, sends automated alerts, and synchronizes processes with customers and partners.

The Real Business Impact via BASF: Concrete results from the field with customer Hess LNA:

⬇️ Reduction in non-performances from 15% to 5%
⬇️ Cut in rush orders from 10% to 3%

Optimized inventory and reduced CO2 emissions through more efficient logistics.

Strategic Benefits at a Glance:

For Logistics: Predictable container returns, prevention of loss for expensive assets, and automation of manual tasks.

For Sales: New service models like automated reordering (VMI) and increased customer loyalty through proactive communication.

For Sustainability: Higher resource efficiency, smaller required fleets, and support for regulatory compliance.

Quotes from the Webinar:

"The moment the product is filled into a container and leaves the warehouse, companies lose all information. That is the origin of many daily problems." – Malik Wolf, Packwise

"Through the solution, we were able to reduce non-performances from 15% to 5% and rush orders from 10% to 3%." – Gerrit Kroll, BASF

Conclusion: Digitizing passive containers into active data sources is not a future scenario—it's today's reality. It enables the leap from reactive firefighting to proactive, automated supply chain control.
