Zozio and Actility join forces to revolutionize the cosmetics industry with tank tracking
Press Release – 8 March 2022 – Paris, France
In a context where the cosmetics market is booming across the world, with an increasing need for more efficient management of resources, Zozio, a recognized player in Industry 4.0, and Abeeway, the market leader in traceability devices, Actility’s subsidiary, are joining forces to offer a unique tracking and tracing solution, aiming at optimizing the flow of assets and reducing costs.
The Partners realized a first successful project in the cosmetics industry, but the solution is agile and adjustable to all industries in need of tracking of various industrial assets. Abeeway’s expertise in low-power geolocation systems, coupled with Zozio’s flow management service, made the project a real success!
Creating digital twins to optimize assets flow and inventory
In order to overcome a lack of visibility in the factory, Zozio offers a solution – a digital twin of industrial logistics – that supports the operator in his daily work. To be precise, it’s an industrial equipment control platform. Coupled with an IoT geolocation system and business software (WMS/ERP), the platform provides access to important information for the operator. It allows us to visualize, understand, analyze and optimize production processes.
Now with Abeeway & Actility, Zozio made a successful deployment with one of the biggest French luxury brands. The brand, which name will be revealed at later stages of the project, is using the integrated Zozio-Abeeway solution to track high-end perfume tanks on production sites.
A similar use case has been already implemented by its client L’Oréal, a world leader in beauty. And thanks to the solution of Zozio, employees have immediate access to data on the status, location and history of tank movements from the ergonomic platform.
The benefits for customers are numerous: they recover field data in real time, control and optimize their logistic flows, follow the state and the certification of their tanks and detect the immobilization of these at their subcontractors. Therefore, there are increased performance, reduction in raw material losses and in number of tanks, more eco-responsible production.
From ultra-precise and outdoor geolocation to real-time flow control
Looking for a reliable partner with expertise in outdoor geolocation, Zozio approached Abeeway, Actility’s subsidiary. Abeeway is a leader in IoT solutions based on LPWA (Low Power Wide Area) networks and offers high-precision, low-power Track&Trace systems that are unique on the market.
