Impact indicators

With a ShockWatch® brand shock indicator, you can ensure that damage to goods can be detected and traced at an early stage. The simple but effective indicator for transport monitoring allows you to save money on avoidable repairs, maintain customer confidence and strengthen your reputation. Find out more about our range of transport indicators below!

Why a shock indicator? Trust is good, control is better

The most careful inspection of goods is futile if they are damaged after they have left the production site. Every company that sends items to business partners and customers knows that transport or storage conditions are not always optimal. In the worst-case scenario, the affected item is so badly damaged that it can only be used to a limited extent or not at all - in any case, it is no longer acceptable to the customer. In the Transport Control International GmbH Monitoring Shop, you will find various impact indicators that you can use to detect incorrect handling. Excessive impact, dropping or rough setting down can be detected, as can tipping damage or an interruption in the temperature chain.

Shock sensors for transport: detect damage directly

The ShockWatch® shock indicators allow you to immediately recognise whether a package has fallen over, been pushed too hard or has been set down roughly. In this case, the indicator turns red and immediately indicates that a certain value has been exceeded. This makes it possible to determine when damage has occurred, even during transport with many different intermediate stops.

In addition, when transporting sensitive items, the shock sensors also signal to the logistics company employee in charge that this item should be handled with care and that damage can be specifically traced.

Advantages of the impact indicators

When you use impact indicators to monitor transport conditions, you benefit from several essential advantages:

  • Compliance with regulations on the handling of the shipping object is monitored along the entire supply chain - from production to the end customer.
  • The indicator allows you to recognise whether a freight forwarder is suitable for transporting your goods. If the indicators arrive at the destination incorrectly, you should choose a different provider next time if possible.
  • In the case of transport damage, the time and place can be determined and therefore also the person responsible for the damage.
  • Transport damage can be effectively reduced. This is accompanied by lower costs due to a decreasing complaint rate and an improved product yield.
