Key Benefits

Prevent Loss, Simplify Returns, and Maximize Asset Visibility

Managing returnable containers shouldn’t be a guessing game. Misplaced assets, tracking inefficiencies, and lost containers lead to higher costs, supply chain disruptions, and operational slowdowns. Avancir’s RFID-powered returnable container tracking ensures every tote, pallet, rack, and bin is accounted for—reducing loss, improving efficiency, and optimizing container utilization.

Prevent loss and theft with real-time RFID tracking that ensures every returnable container is where it should be.

Automate shipment tracking and returns to streamline operations and cut costs from misplaced or underutilized containers.

Avancir connects with ERP, WMS, and logistics platforms, providing automated updates and actionable insights to optimize asset circulation.

How it Works

The Returnable Container Tracking Process

Tag & Identify Containers for Real-Time Tracking

Each returnable container is assigned an RFID tag with unique identification, ensuring seamless tracking throughout its entire lifecycle.

Automate Shipments, Transfers & Movement Tracking

RFID readers automatically log inbound and outbound shipments, transfers, and receiving events—eliminating manual errors and reducing lost or unaccounted-for items.

Sync Data & Optimize Utilization

All tracking data is instantly updated in ERP, WMS, or asset management systems, providing real-time insights to prevent shortages, reduce costs, and improve asset circulation.

Industry Use Cases & Applications

Avancir’s RFID-powered returnable container tracking ensures every tote, pallet, bin, and crate is accounted for.

Misplaced returnable racks, totes, and dunnage containers disrupt production and increase costs. Avancir automates tracking for reusable transport assets, ensuring parts arrive at the right location, at the right time, with full traceability—eliminating costly delays and container shortages.

Manufacturers rely on returnable containers for material handling, production staging, and distribution. Avancir provides real-time tracking and automated reconciliation, ensuring that containers move efficiently through production and are returned promptly for reuse.

High-value aircraft components require secure, trackable returnable containers to maintain compliance with AS9100, DoD, and FAA regulations. Avancir ensures full traceability of reusable crates, toolkits, and component transport containers, preventing loss and maintaining quality control throughout the supply chain.

Hazardous material containers, chemical totes, and returnable cylinders require strict tracking for compliance and safety. Avancir ensures real-time verification, regulatory compliance, and automated return tracking, reducing risks and ensuring safe handling of reusable assets.

Retailers use returnable shipping containers, display racks, and reusable packaging to move goods between warehouses and stores. Avancir ensures real-time inventory visibility, loss prevention, and efficient container returns, helping retailers reduce shrinkage and optimize reverse logistics.

Returnable crates, dairy bins, bakery trays, and kegs must be tracked, sanitized, and returned for reuse. Avancir’s RFID tracking helps prevent container shortages, optimizes rotation cycles, and ensures compliance with FDA, HACCP, and FSMA regulations.

Avancir enables real-time WIP tracking for FDA/GMP compliance, reducing batch losses, manual reporting errors, and delays in medical device production.

Lost returnable pallets, totes, and containers create inefficiencies in warehouse and distribution operations. Avancir provides real-time visibility of every asset in transit, ensuring accurate shipments, automated returns, and full inventory reconciliation to reduce costs and improve supply chain efficiency.
