Case Studies
Artisan Fine Foods
This case study showcases the deployment of our solution at Artisan Fine Foods, a prominent seafood distributor known for its commitment to freshness and quality. The system was implemented to provide accurate, real-time monitoring of temperature-sensitive seafood across storage, where consistent temperature control is essential to preserve product quality and ensure food safety.
Company Profile
Artisan Fine Foods is a Singapore-based importer and distributor of premium ingredients sourced directly from producers around the world. Known for its focus on product integrity and supplier relationships, the company offers a curated range, from USDA beef and Iberico pork to air-flown seafood and gourmet desserts. Artisan is also committed to introducing unique, high-quality products to the local market by sharing the stories behind each brand and inspiring new culinary trends.
Challenges
Artisan Fine Foods needed to comply with stringent audit requirements that mandate accurate and consistent temperature monitoring of their cold storage facilities. As a distributor of premium, temperature-sensitive products such as caviar, seafood, and specialty meats, maintaining optimal storage conditions was critical to preserving product quality.
At the same time, the company faced the risk of potential product loss due to undetected fluctuations or equipment failure. Without real-time monitoring or alert systems in place, any temperature breach could go unnoticed leading to spoiled inventory, failed audits, and significant monetary losses.
Solution
With our IoT temperature monitoring solution, Artisan Fine Foods gained full visibility and control over their cold room environment. The dashboard allows them to set custom temperature thresholds, monitor real-time and historical trends, and generate downloadable reports that can be readily shared with auditors to meet compliance requirements.
In addition, the system sends instant alerts via email, SMS, or messaging apps whenever temperatures deviate from the set range, enabling immediate action to protect their high-value products and avoid potential financial losses.
Key Components of the Solution:
IoT Sensor
The sensor is placed inside cold rooms and is built for use in low-temperature environments. It is ideal for continuous temperature monitoring to ensure product safety and compliance.
IoT Gateway
The gateway plays a crucial role in facilitating continuous and seamless transmission of data to the cloud. This setup enables efficient and reliable real-time temperature monitoring.
Monitoring Dashboard
The cloud-based dashboard enables users to remotely view temperature trends, receive alerts when parameters are breached, and download detailed reports on temperature fluctuations.
