Many FMCG producers absorb uncertainty about their own load carriers through extra safety stock and manual counts. CLC replaces that workaround with reliable knowledge of where your load carriers are needed and how often they are reused, which is also where a smarter supply chain begins.
Each recorded movement adds to a verifiable reuse history, giving you the evidence PPWR expects from load carrier owners.
Automatic counts and low-stock alerts show what a site needs, so you can reduce safety stock without risking shortages.
Electronic proof of delivery confirms when load carriers reach the receiving site, so disputes between business units rest on facts.
Value from the first step
Your plants and business units ship load carriers to each other every day, which makes those internal flows a logical place to start and the first source of knowledge you can act on.
Know how many load carriers are on hand at each connected site
See where internal handovers take place and which site received what
Hardware, software, connectivity, implementation ánd service from one partner
From data to evidence
When you own your load carriers, PPWR places the burden of proof on you. Because CLC registers movements at the points that matter, that proof builds up in daily operations rather than being reconstructed afterwards.
Show how often each connected load carrier has been reused
Spot imbalances and delays early, while they are still easy to resolve
Rely on one record for PPWR, internal reporting and dispute resolution
There is no need to connect every plant and load carrier at once, because we start with the question you need answered today, such as availability or proof of reuse, and turn the knowledge it creates into supply chain optimisation.
We begin with the question you need answered, for example about the crates or pallets moving between two of your plants. As one dedicated partner, CLC delivers hardware, software, connectivity, installation and support.
Together we decide which insights matter most, such as dwell time, availability or correct loading. We then activate those that lower buffer stock, reduce manual counting or improve production planning, enriching your existing systems.
Your picture grows with every load carrier and site you add, with every receiver in TTAN™, an independent network for digital supply chains, and with every partner that connects. You always decide which data you share.
Safety stock based on facts
Automatic counts at connected sites show what is available, so safety stock reflects actual need rather than uncertainty.
Clear responsibility between sites
Registered handovers and electronic proof of delivery show which site received what, so responsibility is clear from the start.
Reuse you can prove
Each registered movement adds to the record PPWR requires, so the evidence is already in place when you need it.
Safety stock as insurance
Extra stock and manual counts compensate for not knowing how many load carriers each site actually holds.
Handovers open to interpretation
When a load carrier is damaged or lost between plants, responsibility is settled through manual checks and slow reconciliation.
Reuse based on estimates
Proving how often owned load carriers have been reused means piecing together scattered records after the fact.
Let's uncover the hidden potential in your asset flows.
One quick scan. Zero obligations. Backed by real expertise.
FMCG producers should never have to make operational decisions based on incomplete knowledge of the load carriers they own. The knowledge you build today is where a smarter supply chain begins and it grows with every site you connect.
NewsOur new name, visual identity and positioning reflect how we have evolved from connecting load carriers to creating measurable supply chain value. Read why connecting a load carrier is only the beginning, and what stays the same for our customers.
BlogManual inbound counts, loading errors and missing roll cages have become so normal in retail DCs that nobody counts what they cost. Carl McInerney explains where that cost hides, how it reaches the shelf and why knowledge of your load carriers is the place to start.
PodcastIn an episode of the ''Does Logistics Matter?'' podcast, CLC CEO Davy Baars explains why digitalising the supply chain starts with the operational questions you need answered, not with the hardware you buy. Read the key takeaways or listen to the full conversation.
