For the first time in India, the latest FedEx proprietary technology SenseAware ^SM M4 will be exhibited. SenseAware^SM advanced monitoring uses a multi-sensor device that collects real-time data for critical shipments from the moment they are packed and picked up to the time they are delivered. The latest SenseAware ^SM M4 device is the most versatile SenseAware ^SM device to date. The device has an array of sensors, a FedEx proprietary airplane mode, and the ability to operate inside and outside of FedEx transportation networks.

In India the demand for cold chain logistics has been increasing year-on-year and is expected to grow at over 20% compounded annual growth rate (CAGR) by 2025.

Healthcare shipments require strict temperature control and reliable transit times. FedEx has various types of packaging solutions to insulate healthcare shipments and ensure they’re delivered at the right temperature – several of which will be displayed at booth no. 28 – including Medpack Thermo 13, Medpack Frozen 10, Ambient Shipper box and a new packaging solution Nanocool.
