You manage complex supply chains and are responsible for thousands of load carriers. BOX ID gives you the transparency you need – with IoT tracking, intelligent management, and an open platform that integrates into your systems.
Our Customers
Supply chains need visibility
Thousands of load carriers, dozens of locations, changing partners. Anyone controlling reusable specialty and large load carriers in industrial circulation needs transparency – in real time and across company boundaries. Because your decisions directly impact costs, availability, and sustainability.
Multiple roles, one goal: overview of all assets in the network
Complex supply chains across locations, countries, and partners
What missing transparency costs your company
Without real-time data on location, status, and utilization of load carriers, these problems remain invisible – until they measurably cost money.
Loss
Load carriers disappear in the network. Without tracking, the loss goes unnoticed for months – and costs mount silently.
Dwell times
Load carriers are not returned on time. This reduces effective fleet size and blocks operational processes.
Excess inventory
Missing circulation data leads to oversized fleets. Companies make additional purchases instead of better utilizing existing stock.
System breaks
Coordination via email, phone, and Excel creates errors, delays, and duplicate work. Seamless process data is missing.
No analysis
Without reliable data, there is no insight into utilization, circulation times, or bottlenecks. Decisions are based on assumptions.
System silos
Logistics data exists isolated in ERP, WMS, or TMS. Without integration, no overall view of processes and assets emerges.
One platform for the entire supply chain
BOX ID connects load carriers through IoT trackers with an open cloud platform. Reusable pool and customized load carriers become visible in real time – with location, status, and movement history.
The software enables asset tracking, load carrier management, track & trace, and process monitoring. Through open interfaces, data flows directly into existing ERP, WMS, and TMS systems. This transforms tracking into genuine process control.
Open architecture – hardware-independent and integration-capable
Real-time event processing for immediate process control

What our customers say about BOX ID
Reduce costs, convince customers
"Working with BOX ID Systems, we were able to optimize costs for operating shuttle packaging in a Siemens unit by implementing BOX ID's asset tracking and monitoring solution. In addition to transparency and cost savings, we also achieved higher customer satisfaction."
Ralf Dupal
Senior Consultant Production & Logistics, Siemens Advanta Consulting
Better decisions, faster
"When we began our partnership with BOX ID, we were truly impressed. Their deep knowledge of the logistics industry and their expertise are simply excellent. The platform is easy to use and provides managers and operations leaders with the insights they need to make better, faster, and fact-based decisions. BOX ID has proven they are able to handle complexity and deliver powerful out-of-the-box reporting solutions."
Sam Sharief
COO, Thinxtra, The IoT Telco
Cost-effective ERP integration
"CANCOM chose Sigfox and BOX ID because the tracking solution via 0G network connectivity is particularly energy-efficient, low-maintenance, and cost-effective for digitization and load carrier management. The solution offers significant advantages over alternative services we tested based on 3G/4G/5G cellular networks, as it allows us to cost-effectively integrate load carriers into ERP and the solution works without roaming fees. The streamlined handling in the very intuitive backend also convinced us."
Stephan Huber
Manager Operations Service Factory, Cancom
Always on top of inventory
"With the BOX ID solution, we always have our rack inventory in view – transparency and flexibility that really positively impact our business."
Daniel Freund
Managing Director, Weha-Therm
Measurably optimized logistics
"Damage to packages is avoided, transport on the truck is space-saving, we save packaging aids like film, transport to individual areas is faster, and process steps are optimized.
Roland Huber
Logistics Project Management, FEGA & Schmitt
No need for new purchases
"Since we implemented the BOX ID solution, we get empty racks back from our customers much faster, always have enough racks available, and haven't needed to buy new ones."
Asta-Magdalena Suttner
Purchasing / Marketing, Glashandelsgesellschaft Profi mbH
Real-time transparency
"We were able to integrate process mining in the testing phase and quickly gained helpful insights into how our load carriers actually perform."

Frequently asked questions about BOX ID
Answers to the most important questions about platform, technology, and getting started.
What exactly is BOX ID?
BOX ID is an open IoT platform for real-time tracking and management of reusable load carriers, assets, and shipments in industrial supply chains. The system consists of three layers: IoT-capable trackers on the physical load carriers, a cloud-based software platform for monitoring and control, and open interfaces for integration into existing ERP, WMS, and TMS systems.
Which industries is BOX ID suitable for?
BOX ID is deployed across industries – including automotive, post & parcel, glass industry, keg pooling & food, retail, logistics & shipping, defence, and construction & trade logistics. Wherever reusable specialty and large load carriers must be controlled in industrial circulation, the platform creates transparency and measurable efficiency gains.
Which load carriers can be tracked with BOX ID?
BOX ID specializes in reusable specialty and large load carriers – such as collapsible boxes, transport racks, KTP boxes, roll containers, kegs, swap bodies, and industry-specific specialized load carriers. The platform is hardware-agnostic and integrates trackers from different manufacturers, allowing it to adapt to different load carrier types and deployment environments.
How can BOX ID be integrated into existing systems?
BOX ID has open APIs and standardized interfaces for connection to ERP, WMS, and TMS systems. The platform is deliberately designed to be interoperable and manufacturer-independent – there is no vendor lock-in. Real-time data can be directly imported into existing processes and systems or evaluated within the BOX ID system itself and used for process control.
How complex is the implementation?
Entry is possible via the Starter Edition within weeks. BOX ID handles project planning, hardware procurement, pre-activation, and training. A typical pilot starts with a defined scope and delivers measurable results within 12 weeks. From there, the system can be progressively scaled to additional locations and load carrier types.
How quickly is return on investment seen?
ROI typically materializes within months. Savings come from reduced losses, fewer new purchases, shorter dwell times, and higher utilization of existing fleet. The platform provides the data foundation to measure and document these effects internally.
How secure is my data with BOX ID?
BOX ID operates the platform on European cloud servers and is GDPR-compliant. The company is ISO 27001 certified. Development, hosting, and support follow European standards. The platform architecture is multi-tenant, ensuring strict separation of customer data.
What distinguishes BOX ID from other tracking providers?
BOX ID is not just a tracking provider, but an end-to-end platform that integrates sensors, connectivity, software, and process control. The platform is hardware-agnostic and open, delivers deduplicated and clean real-time data instead of raw data, and is designed for industrial continuous operation with up to millions of networked assets. The goal is control, not just observation.
