G+D describes it as ‘one of the most lightweight, versatile, accurate, and competitively priced tracking solutions on the market’. The ‘ultra-thin’ label is ‘only slightly larger than a credit card’, but it uses smart motion sensors to detect movement and acceleration, as well as GPS accuracy to achieve sub-10m precision in ‘ideal conditions’. It combines hardware, an iSIM, IoT connectivity, and an IoT platform to manage connection and firmware updates in an easy-to-use, ‘all-in-one’ solution. Customizable reporting frequencies and ‘agile’ cloud-based configurations can help users manage and monitor their assets, ensure their integrity across the supply chain, and meet specific business needs. Among the label’s other features are an open-close sensor for tamper protection and automated proof of delivery; and a temperature monitor to keep an eye on perishable goods, thus helping achieve accountability and security. Activation is triggered when the label is peeled and applied to an item, such as a parcel, shipment, or high-value asset. “G+D has been dedicated to designing robust and innovative solutions for the transport and logistics market, and is the market leader of solar-powered trackers with over 180,000 connected devices in the field,” explained Sharath Muddaiah, head of Portfolio Strategy for IoT Solutions at G+D. “Following the launch of our award-winning first-generation Smart Label solution in 2023, we have been working on the development of an even more compact and highly accurate solution. “The G+D Smart Label provides a single end-to-end solution, including dedicated service support and warranty from one source. Our industry has seen many a solution which, once sold, has limited support, and we are here to set a new trend!” [Track & Pay](https://www.tnp.ai/?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io) is named as an early user of the smart label. The ‘world’s first’ IoT-powered B2B payment solution combines shipment tracking with payment processing, using the label to automatically trigger a financial transaction when a delivery arrives – and to improve visibility regarding both payments and a pack’s shipment status. “We believe in Track & Pay’s ability to revolutionize the global finance supply chain, offering a much more secure and fraud-proof solution than the common letter of credit,” added Joerg Hoerster, Founder and CEO of TNP Global Trade GmbH. “The Smart Label’s slick size and active tracking capacity makes it a competitive tracking solution which is why we chose to offer it to our Track & Pay clients.” German and U.S. customers are invited to buy the label from G+D’s IoT Shop. Alternatively, it can be purchased directly from G+D. Previously, G+D company Pod Group released a [‘paper-thin’ smart label](https://packagingeurope.com/news/re-usable-ultra-thin-smart-label-allows-tracking-of-lightweight-items/9649.article?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io) for small and lightweight items – a feat not thought to have been possible before its release. Made of an ultra-thin printed battery and low-power 5G cellular chip, it is expected to prevent boxes and letters from getting lost in transit. More recently, [Reelables](https://reelables.com/?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io) launched a [printable label solution](https://packagingeurope.com/news/smart-shipping-label-connects-to-5g-network-to-track-real-time-supply-chain-data/10879.article?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io) that connects to a 5G network to generate product data and track products across their supply chains. The solution – which was subsequently [nominated](https://packagingeurope.com/features/sustainability-awards-2024-finalist-interview-reelables-5g-smart-label/11993.article?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io) for a Sustainability Award – is designed to prevent fraud, theft, and product loss. **If you liked this story, you might also enjoy:** [***The ultimate guide to the Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation in 2024***](https://packagingeurope.com/features/the-ultimate-guide-to-the-packaging-and-packaging-waste-regulation-in-2024/11796.article?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io) [***How are the top brands progressing on packaging sustainability?***](https://packagingeurope.com/features/report-how-are-the-top-brands-progressing-on-packaging-sustainability/10890.article?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io) [***Sustainable Innovation Report 2024: Current trends and future priorities***](https://packagingeurope.com/events/sustainable-innovation-report-2024-current-trends-and-future-priorities/11263.article?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io) [***Everything you need to know about global plastic sustainability regulation***](https://packagingeurope.com/features/report-the-ultimate-guide-to-global-plastic-sustainability-regulation/11084.article?ref=packaging-europe.ghost.io)
