Efficient cold chain management with AGS telematics solutions

June 2025 – AGS Atlantis Global System, the Spanish telematics specialist for temperature controlled logistics, is joining forces with Schmitz Cargobull to present advanced telematics solutions for efficient cold chain management at the 2025 transport logistic trade show. From the cold-storage warehouse to last-mile transportation, including HGVs and trailers: AGS enables users to enjoy real-time temperature control and centralised management through a single interface. The latest generation of the digital Conecta+® iTS Compact thermograph/temperature recorder has been developed especially for use in temperature-controlled logistics processes. It meets the stringent requirements set out under the UNE-EN 12830:2019 standard for electronic temperature recording devices and the Spanish ICT155/2020 standard and can also be used across Europe in accordance with all applicable laws.

Ever since the strategic partnership between AGS and Schmitz Cargobull began in 2024, Schmitz Cargobull has pushed to install the digital Conecta+® iTS Compact thermograph/temperature recorder in all of the refrigerated box body semi-trailers built at its plants for customers in Spain, which is Europe’s biggest market for refrigerated transport. The installation of the Conecta+® iTS Compact thermograph as a standard is also planned for the Portuguese market.

The digital Conecta+® iTS Compact thermograph/temperature recorder is available as a wired or battery-powered version. It is certified according to Class 0.5, which means it can be used in the pharmaceutical sector – one of the strictest sectors when it comes to traceability and temperature control. This certification underlines the commitment that Schmitz Cargobull and AGS share to ensure the highest standards of quality and comply with legal regulations and market requirements. Besides tracking and controlling temperatures, also humidity can be tracked with the Conecta+® iTS Compact thermograph/temperature recorder. In addition to being installed in a vehicle or warehouse, it can be attached directly to the cargo to control and protect sensitive goods and track them via app over the whole cold chain.
