Georg Utz GmbH and Connected Load Carrier launch new connected pallet "UPAL-K" to transform supply chain efficiency 

We are excited to announce a new collaboration with Utz, a leading pallet manufacturer. Together, we are launching an innovative line of connected pallets that go far beyond their traditional role of transporting goods.

These new smart pallets are equipped with our solution, which seamlessly combines RFID and beacon technology. This powerful combination provides businesses with real-time visibility and generates valuable data to enable greater efficiency, transparency and smarter decision-making across the entire supply chain.

This partnership marks a significant step forward in smart logistics, as we work with Utz to redefine the future of supply chain operations.

Full control with our 360° Asset Control Tower

Every connected pallet is designed to seamlessly integrate with our 360° Asset Control Tower, giving you complete oversight of your assets.

A core feature of this control tower is the digital twin we create for each connected pallet. This virtual mirror provides real-time information on location, status and lifecycle, allowing teams to accurately track how long each pallet has been in use. This data helps companies make smarter decisions about procurement and asset management, optimizing usage and extending the lifecycle of your pallets.

By turning the transportation process into a fully digital and circular supply chain, our solution not only reduces costs but also supports sustainability goals by minimizing waste and CO₂ emissions.

Benefits for customers and partners

For customers, the connected pallets provide greater reliability and transparency in the delivery of goods. Operational teams gain improved oversight and can respond more quickly to changing situations. In addition, digital tracking helps optimize processes, increase efficiency and reduce waste.

Ready for the future

By starting with the first batch of connected pallets, Utz is laying the foundation for a larger rollout in the near future. This innovation shows how a traditional product like a pallet can evolve into an intelligent and valuable link in the supply chain.

With this step, Utz shows that modern logistics is about more than just transportation; it's a strategic tool for smarter, more efficient and more transparent operations.
