Setting a New Standard for RTI Management in the Danish Fishing Industry
Pack and Sea A/S, a partnership among Denmark’s largest fishing ports, manages over 350.000 fish crates in a dynamic environment. Managing these RTIs effectively and reliably was a growing challenge, as misplaced assets and manual administration work began to drive up costs and slow down operations. Recognizing the need for a scalable and automated solution, Pack and Sea implemented the RTI Tracking Solution powered by Lyngsoe LIVE Logistics™.
Bent Kirk, CEO of Pack and Sea, shared: "The system was relatively easy to launch and was welcomed by the fishing industry. Benefits include full traceability, enhanced quality, and food safety."
With a comprehensive fixed and mobile data capture infrastructure providing full visibility of RTI locations and usage, our RTI tracking solution has transformed Pack and Sea’s fish crate rental operations, allowing them to maintain complete visibility and control over their assets. Automated tracking ensures fish crates are available where needed, minimizing loss, streamlining workflows, and reducing operational costs.
The RTI tracking solution has delivered comprehensive value for Pack and Sea, transforming their operations across key areas:
- Accurate Invoicing: Automated, error-free billing for fish crate rentals ensures every transaction is documented, fostering transparency and building trust in client relationships.
- Enhanced Inventory Control: Real-time visibility of crate locations enables informed purchasing and logistical decisions, such as relocating surplus crates to harbors where they’re needed, optimizing inventory levels, and reducing excess.
- Reduced Asset Loss: Automated tracking has reduced fish crate losses and established immediate accountability, so crates remain in the system or are billed if lost.
- Decreased Administrative Workload: Streamlined management processes minimize time spent on manual tracking and administrative tasks.
- Real-Time Liability Tracking: Liability is instantly updated when crates transfer ownership, eliminating guesswork and reducing administrative follow-up.
- Regulatory Compliance: The solution ensures full compliance with industry standards, making food safety and traceability seamless, efficient, and cost-effective.
By deploying this comprehensive RTI tracking solution, Pack and Sea has not only streamlined operations and reduced costs but also strengthened compliance and optimized asset utilization. Lyngsoe LIVE Logistics™ has proven invaluable in helping Pack and Sea set a new standard for asset management in the fishing industry, driving both efficiency and sustainability.

Why RTI Tracking Matters for Your Business
The RTI Tracking Solution powered by Lyngsoe LIVE Logistics™ is an advanced, fully integrated system designed to transform how you track and manage your RTIs (Returnable Transport Items). Combining our cutting-edge Lyngsoe X-Tracking™ web and app software, central middleware, RFID Edgeware, multipurpose RFID devices, and tags, our solution enables real-time RTI tracking throughout your manufacturing, production, transport, and supply chain processes.
Here’s how and why our RTI Tracking Solution stands out:
Our scalable solution utilizes several types of RTLS and RFID hardware and software that may be deployed in multiple configurations to meet individual customer data capture needs:
- RFID RTI Tags: Industry-grade hard case RFID tags are designed for harsh environments and support RTI tracking in your manufacturing or logistics processes. Special-purpose RFID tags withstanding very high temperatures or other specific needs are available.
- RTLS RFID Portals: Installed at dock doors or internal process choke points, RTLS portals track moving RTIs in near real-time, with RFID and/or optional BLE.
- RTLS Process Readers: Installed at workstations, process equipment, and material handling systems to track RTIs with RFID and/or optional BLE.
- RTLS RFID Handheld Devices: Allow barcode scanning and RFID encoding and scanning of RTIs in relevant processes.
- BLE/RFID RTI Tags: Durable asset tags designed for harsh environments that combines real time BLE, RFID and barcode data capture to enable end-to-end tracking of Assets supporting both inventory and flow management, as well as operational excellence with constant updates on asset locations. We also specialize in custom design of asset tag housing to optimize placement and enable rapid deployment.
- RTLS BLE Handheld Devices: Combining mobile BLE and GPS data for precise location detection at delivery and collection points, such as customer and partner sites where fixed data capture infrastructure isn’t possible.
- RTLS BLE AoA Locators: Ceiling-installed for precise indoor positioning, supporting automated consignment of shipments and process flow monitoring to ensure SLA and cut-off time compliance.
Our RFID Edgeware onboard RTLS portals and process readers handle first-level data processing, managing data filtration, zone location, and process point calculations to ensure efficient operation and accurate tracking. (When BLE is part of the solution configuration, the BLE apps for Android devices allow first-time asset registration and constant location tracking.)
The RTI Tracking Web Frontend and X-Tracking Application
The RTI tracking front-end application, Lyngsoe X-Tracking™, is a web-based application with functionality, views, and track-and-trace reports. It provides master data management for RTI tag inventory and locations. Key features include:
- A list of RTIs at their last known location with trace history
- Search functions for locating specific RTIs
- Track and trace of RTIs moving in and out of specific processes and locations
- An exchange matrix showing asset flow between regions/locations
- A graphical overview of roll cage volumes per location
To ensure data is exchanged with customer systems, RTI data is stored for a specified time before being securely discarded from the system.
Central RTLS Middleware
The RFID Edgeware and Lyngsoe X-Tracking™ app on handheld devices push data to the Central RTLS Middleware for advanced processing, location determination, event creation, and data storage. The Central RTLS Middleware also provides seamless API integration (through a REST API integration or other options) with existing ERP, BI, WMS, PMS, and TMS systems, keeping your operations in sync and allowing data use where needed.
Comprehensive Device Management & Monitoring
Running a logistics platform requires robust device management. Our solution offers full visibility and control over all reading devices, regardless of technology. With our RTI Tracking solution, powered by Lyngsoe LIVE Logistics™, you benefit from a centralized monitoring service that guarantees high uptime for both hardware and software.
