Netto Installs Manta Electronic Seal to Enhance Fleet

Netto, one of the UK’s leading discounters, has enhanced the security of its new fleet of delivery vehicles by fitting the Manta electronic seal to each trailer. Developed and supplied by Unisto, Manta provides a more effective way of sealing the doors of each trailer to eliminate unauthorised access as well as providing accurate data tracking every opening or closing of the doors by date and time around the clock. A Unisto Manta seal has been fitted to each of the 96 refrigerated trailers that are being operated by logistics firm C Butt on behalf of Netto under a new multi-million pound five-year contract awarded in 2009. The fleet serves 196 Netto stores throughout England from distribution centres located at South Elmsall, West Yorkshire and Daventry, Northamptonshire. States Netto’s Head of Loss Prevention Steve Teatum: “We selected the Unisto Manta after effectively discounting the use of lesser mechanical-based solutions that did not provide the required level of security and delivery performance data that would link with the geographical positioning data available through the Isotrak system to track deliveries and performance.” The Manta seal is very easy to use and generates a random 4 digit seal number on the integral LED every time the doors are closed. This unique seal number is recorded on the vehicle delivery manifest and can be visually checked at any time by pressing a single button to detect any unauthorised opening. “Manta provides us with a clear audit trails showing each time the doors are opened or closed during planned journeys and enables us to identify any anomalies and take corrective action when required,” continues Steve Teatum. “The system has already reduced losses during the delivery cycle and we expect it to continue to provide us with further efficiency gains in the future."
