Air cargo transport has been increasing in recent years due to the growth in e-commerce, pharmaceutical, and electronic industries. These more valuable cargoes sometimes require more capable track and trace systems against theft and spoilage of the cargoes.

AVANTE electronic cargo tracking system includes a specialized e-Seal™ for air cargoes for both the itemized or containerized forms. The tracking services cover the air cargoes from the shipping location to final destination including the intermodal transport on the road for the final miles.

International and Intercontinental Intermodal Container Cargo Tracking Systems must be compatible and operational on-road via trucking for the first and last mile, via train through the last span of national and international land, via ship, and in the air with different sets of rules for high-value cargoes. AVANTE Air Cargo Tracking System and Services incorporates special functions for air cargo containers and pallets:

  • AVANTE air cargo e-Seal™ configured with a special sensor function for “autonomous turning on-or-off” of the tracking system depending on whether the plane is on the ground or in the air. This ensures conformance to IATA requirements for wireless communication in the cargo hold during transit. 
  • Sophisticated sensors log geo-tagged temperature, shock-vibration, and intrusion, and communicates real-time alerts for any pre-set levels for exception triggering. 
  • Temperature-sensitive air cargoes such as pharmaceutical products, vaccines, and foods require additional capability in monitoring temperature excursion as well as traditional track-and-trace. AVANTE ZONER-TAG with temperature monitoring and the ability to communicate to the e-Seal™ for real-time alerts whenever communication is available.
  • Multi-mode cellular communication to provide end-to-end security international tracking from trucking from origination point to final destination.

For temperature-sensitive cargoes such as vaccines and fresh foods, keeping and knowing the temperature of the cargo is also an important aspect of the tracking services. AVANTE air cargo e-Seal™ provides both security tracking with optional independent temperature tracking inside the temperature-controlled air cargo containers.

Air cargoes are either shipped in itemized levels and aggregated into pallets or individual containers that are shaped to fit the transport plane. For temperature-sensitive cargoes such as vaccines and fresh foods, keeping and knowing the temperature of the cargo is also important for the tracking services.
