Lenzing Group, a global producer of wood-based specialty fibres, is taking an important step in enhancing the transparency and efficiency of the global fibre supply chain with the launch of a pioneering real-time ocean shipment tracker in collaboration with digital supply chain solution company, project44. Adhering to Lenzing’s sustainability goals, the tracker also offers capabilities to improve the visibility of carbon emissions among partners and elevate the customer experience.
Lenzing has integrated a completely integrated real-time application programming interface (API) between the Movement platform of project44 and its systems, applications, and products (SAP). Lenzing is now able to provide customers with precise real-time insights on fibre orders, ranging from shipment status, container location, vessel route tracking, and estimated arrival times at ports around the world. This is done by combining this with advanced artificial intelligence (AI), GPS sensors, and machine-learning technologies.
“Our real-time shipment tracker is a testament to Lenzing’s ‘Better Growth’ corporate strategy, which reinforces our commitment to digitally transform and ensure transparency in the textile and nonwovens supply chain,” said Thomas Panholzer, Vice President Global Supply Chain, Lenzing.
The Global Logistics Emission Council’s (GLEC) framework-accredited real-time ocean shipment tracker offers customers access to Scope 3 carbon emission data on shipment and container level, improving solutions that enable value chain partners to meet their carbon emission targets. Lenzing and its clients can jointly set goals and modify shipment plans to lower carbon emissions thanks to this real-time data.
