Cold Chain Monitoring
$35 billion lost annually to temperature excursions. Vaccines spoil, seafood rots, dairy goes bad — all while paperwork says everything's fine. We fix that with real-time IoT monitoring.
Why Cold Chains Fail
Manual Logging
Drivers write down "2°C" because that's what's expected. No one checks until it's too late.
Point-in-Time Checks
Temperature checked at loading and unloading. What happens in between? Unknown.
Delayed Alerts
Problems discovered days later during audits. Product already consumed or distributed.
Perverse Incentives
Reporting a breach means losing money. System incentivizes hiding problems.
Continuous Monitoring
IoT Sensors
Compact BLE 5.0 sensors attach to pallets or individual packages. Temperature, humidity, light exposure, shock detection.
Gateway Network
LoRaWAN gateways in trucks, warehouses, and retail locations. NB-IoT fallback for areas without gateway coverage.
Real-Time Processing
Readings ingested every 60 seconds. ML models detect anomalies before they become excursions.
Instant Alerts
SMS, WhatsApp, email, webhook. Multiple escalation levels. Alert the driver first, then supervisor, then quality team.
Immutable Record
Every reading anchored to blockchain. No one — not even us — can alter historical data. Complete audit trail.

Indonesian Seafood Exporter
"Before Verda, we lost 12% of shipments to cold chain failures. Now it's under 1%. The sensors paid for themselves in the first month. More importantly, our buyers trust us now."
