Sustainability: reusable IoT asset trackers

At Hanhaa SCS we have been committed to working with our customers to create a sustainable supply chain since our inception in 2015. We believe that advanced monitoring plays a pivotal role in a company’s ability to reduce: usage of non-renewable resources, carbon emissions and e-waste.

Why reusable IoT asset trackers?

40 million metric tons of electronic waste, or "e-waste," is created each year, according to The World Counts. Only 12.5% of this material is recycled, while 85% end up incinerated, releasing harmful toxins into the air, or dumped in landfills.

At Hanhaa SCS, we recognise that recycling electronic devices helps conserve our natural resources and minimises the amount of greenhouse gas emissions caused when manufacturing virgin materials.

ParceLive is the first cargo tracker to take the fight against e-waste seriously. Due to its reusable model, once a device has completed its journey, it is returned to one of our fulfilment centres, where it is recharged, ready for its next journey.

E-waste

ParceLive channel partners inform Hanhaa where they need their IoT asset trackers sent to, and when the journeys are complete, Hanhaa organise the collection of the trackers so that they can be sent back to one of our global fulfilment centres, where they are recharged and updated, ready for their next journey.

The aim here is to minimise the operational pain of companies having to deal with the trackers before and after use, which in turn, has huge benefits for the environment minimising waste and encourages eco friendly shipping pratices.

E-recycling

Global e-waste generation is growing annually about 3 to 4%, a problem attributed to higher consumption rates of electronics (increasing 3% annually), shorter product lifecycles and limited repair options.

ParceLive not only reduces the e-footprint of our shipping customers, but those of their consumers too, by enabling a single IoT asset tracker to work equally well across bulk shipments and various categories of WEEE.
