RFID Location Tracking Offers Exceptional Value for RTI Shippers
What is an RTI?
A Returnable Transport Item (RTI) is anything that can bulk carry products or goods such as pallets, roll cages, returnable plastic containers, tote boxes, ingredients bins, dollies, IBCs (i.e., intermediate bulk containers), gas cylinders, kegs, etc.
The use of RTIs has been indispensable in both the modern shipping and consumer goods industries yet are also subject to supply-chain issues, waste, operational inefficiencies, billing and account errors, worldwide tractability regulations and ballooning management overhead costs.
However, RFID tags can provide increased economic visibility into the location of RTIs and the assets they carry that extend far beyond the cargo ship but deep into the vast network of trucks that deliver products to every point on the globe.
RFID technology can be an essential tool in enabling organizations to better manage, trace, track and audit their RTIs as they travel the world.
