Argentinean Sea Terminal to Launch RFID-Based Reefer Management

Argentinean container-terminal operator TecPlata is installing an RFID-based solution to track and manage conditions within the refrigerated containers (known as reefer units) stored at Buenos Aries' La Plata Port, making it one of the early adopters of a new system provided by Identec Solutions. The terminal is scheduled to open at the end of this year. At that time, it expects to have half of the approximately 1,000 units onsite equipped with active RFID tags, as well as a number of RFID interrogators. Identec's solution, known as the Reefer Asset Management System (RAMS), has been on the market for about six months, and is already in use by freight carriers, as well as several port terminals. - See more at: http://www.rfidjournal.com/articles/view?11039#sthash.PgbWmQiI.dpuf
