Smart Containers is a Swiss logistics company specialized in producing hardware containers for temperature-controlled logistics, building the first fully autonomous airfreight cold chain containers based on #blockchain technology.
SkyCell, the first subsidiary, has been operative for 5 years now successfully operating more than 1200 cold chain airfreight containers for pharma clients. Almost all big #pharma companies have approved their containers and contracts with the likes of Roche and Allergan were signed so far. On the logistics side, they have established successful strategic partnerships with Cargolux and Emirates SkyCargo.
Their latest addition to the portfolio is FoodGuardians where they apply the same innovative technology to containers for food transport. Smart Containers just announced a partnership with Schoeller Allibert (https://www.schoellerallibert.com/) for their pilot operation of the new containers.
Beyond cutting edge technology the new generation of containers are also outperforming the competitive set in environmental sustainability, “SkyCells containers are 100% recyclable and help reducing the carbon footprint by up to 50%” according to their website.
allows for paper-less data exchange with the help of public and permission based blockchains.
“The logistics revolution, however, will come from our second project. The management has detected a game-changing opportunity to create a fully integrated, seamless logistic ecosystem, open to all entities within the industry and based on blockchain technology. This ecosystem will be called LOGI CHAIN. To build and fuel this open source ecosystem, a utility token will be created under the name LOGI token.” — Smart Containers whitepaper
Today’s information sharing on existing systems is a great hassle for the logistics industry. About 200 emails are manually processed for every shipment made. With the LOGI CHAIN all participants in the logistics processes can exchange information on a private/public blockchain platform that massively reduces the manual effort and maximizes efficiency.
Fast Research and Development is Key
The newest development by SkyCell is the ONE CRT. A small size container that is able to stabilize temperature for small shipments to the customers’ doorstep. The small size and high performance, including all sensors and IoT environment, makes this a game changer in the industry. If you look at the competitive set that still uses Styrofoam boxes with cooling pads, they are really disrupting this part of the logistics industry.
For their new subsidiary FoodGuardians they are developing containers to “ship your food one day fresher”. It will be exciting to see their newest development in real-world use.

The team behind Smart Containers consists of specialists in their fields bringing together their knowledge to create a truly disruptive technology. They bring together many years of experience in their respective fields.
