Truck and Track Autumn 2025 www.truckandtrack.com 60 SAFETY & SECURITY Reusable electronic seals have revolutionised security within the transport industry, marking a significant advancement in safeguarding goods in transit. For over two decades, Unisto’s pioneering truck seals—the C2K and Manta have played a crucial role in ensuring the safe and secure delivery for our customers shipments.Their reliability and performance have cemented Unisto’s reputation as a trusted leader in the security sealing market. Over the past few years, the C2K and Manta models have gradually been phased out, paving the way for a new era of advanced sealing technology, spearheaded by Unisto’s innovative e-Guard Data Trans. Unisto’s e-Guard Data Trans redefines the standard for reusable electronic security seals. Equipped with a high-visibility LED display and advanced Bluetooth connectivity, it integrates seamlessly with the Unisto app. This smart pairing allows users to retrieve the last 500 recorded events and effortlessly export sealing history into their preferred systems. The result? Enhanced monitoring and control, rapid response to potential breaches, and improved traceability—delivering both operational confidence and peace of mind. Set to join the lineup soon, Unisto Sentinel is a state-of-theart electronic seal that accurately records every sealing and unsealing event. When integrated with Unisto’s “myU” which is a powerful mobile and web-based platform, it can offer real-time dashboards, GPS locations of every interaction with the device, automated tamper alarms, secure cloud-based audit trails, and intuitive user interfaces. In addition, a newly introduced lock function adds an extra layer of control, while access is safeguarded with unique, secure user logins for traceable accountability across operations. In recent years, Unisto has significantly influenced the in-flight catering industry. This is a large and complex global operation responsible for serving billions of passengers every year. Military precision is required to ensure that everything is ready for loading within tightly defined timeframes so that flights can depart on schedule. A major concern for in-flight catering and logistics providers is not only to ensure the safety and quality of all products delivered on board, but also to ensure protection against any potential security risks. Traditionally, plastic security seals have been used to secure the special high-lift trucks that allow trolleys to be rolled on and off aircraft quickly and efficiently. However, there have been increasing health and safety concerns about plastic fragments from discarded seals left on the ground at the aircraft loading sites. Not only the potential risk of slipping hazards, but the possibility of plastic fragments being sucked into aircraft engines. The better solution is to use reusable electronic seals. These eliminate the need for plastic seals altogether, provide a safer and more secure alternative, and help eliminate both security threats and waste. Unisto has been delivering innovative electronic seal solutions that significantly give the user tangible benefits when compared to using traditional plastic seals. In the example above the Unisto solution has help to speed up the overall logistics process, reduced the incidence of departure delays and minimised the risk of fines imposed by airlines for late deliveries. Today, Unisto seals are not only in use at London Heathrow, but can be seen in operation at many airports around the world. With the Unisto e-Guard and Sentinel, we continue to lead the development of innovative digital solutions for the transport and logistics industry, setting new standards in security, traceability, and operational efficiency. www.unisto.com Unisto reduces plastic waste at the world’s biggest airports Securing the in-flight catering industry
