ERoad, Thermo King forge data-sharing partnership
ERoad is partnering with Thermo King to integrate its transportation technology with Thermo King’s TracKing telematics equipment.
The new data-sharing integration provides ERoad customers with access to cloud-based solutions without the need for additional hardware, the companies reported. Mutual customers now can opt in at any time to authorize ERoad to access their Thermo King transport refrigeration units (TRUs), enabling them to visualize temperature data, monitor alarms, and utilize two-way reefer micro control—all through the ERoad 360 platform.
“This integration and partnership with Thermo King and ERoad helps advance and support our mutual customers and provides the critical insights in reefer control that shippers and carriers need to ensure they are protecting and serving their customers well,” ERoad CEO Mark Heine said in a news release.

“As an innovation and market leader, Thermo King is committed to not only delivering solutions that meet evolving customer and industry needs but also making it easier for customers to manage their fleets economically and reliably,” said Dominic Hand, Thermo King vice president of IT and connected products.
