London, UK – February 28, 2024 – Reelables announced today the launch of its new active Bluetooth 4”x 8” shipping label. Now logistics providers, cargo forwarders, manufacturers and retailers can print shipping labels with an integrated Bluetooth tracker and easily trace cargo through the supply chain without any extra software integration or need to match shipments to tracking devices.
Reelables first launched its Bluetooth label in 2019; it was the only print to activate Bluetooth labels on the market. Today millions of Reelables’ labels are being printed and deployed around the world tracking point-to-point visibility and giving businesses a single source of truth for where their cargo is that is consistent and reliable across different modes of transport and transportation providers. The labels actively track when cargo arrives and departs from a facility, what exact cargo is on a truck, and when individual pieces of a consignment or shipment split from each other.
Now Reelables has launched a 4” x8” active Bluetooth shipping label which means cargo forwarders can simply print their regular shipping label and it is now automatically integrated with Bluetooth tracking. The tracking reference is extracted and linked in the Cloud to the physical label. Cargo forwarders who print standard shipping labels throughout the day can for the first time instead now print smart trackable shipping labels to go on every piece of cargo without making any change to their workflow.
“We are excited to officially launch this new version of our Bluetooth label which has consolidated the shipping label and tracking device into one standard 4” x 8” label that goes directly onto cargo,” said Brian Krejcarek, CEO and Co-Founder of Reelables. “Our customers get real-time visibility at a piece level throughout the supply chain and now it is all part of a standard shipping label. There is no change to the customers’ workflow; instead, when they print shipping labels they are now Bluetooth-enabled and instantly trackable.”
