Replacing old temperature loggers
Johan ‘t Hart, Teamleader Documents & Logistics at Anthura, explains how they used to work: “Before Tapp, we used traditional plastic meters with batteries. We had to collect them after each shipment, which took extra time and effort for us and our customers. And to get the shipment data, you had to plug in a USB stick, download the report and send it back. Not the smoothest process.”
“Tapp makes temperature monitoring easy for us and our customers.”

Safe data logging for global plant shipments
Switching to Tapp’s paper-based, lithium-free data loggers brought an immediate benefit. The labels are thin, water-resistant and safe for air freight and destinations that restrict lithium-powered loggers, making them ideal for sustainable temperature monitoring for horticulture and global plant exports. “Tapp is innovative and keeps evolving. We can use it on routes where battery loggers weren’t allowed, and there’s no need to get them back afterwards.”
Instant NFC monitoring for cold chain insight
Using Tapp is simple. Once a shipment arrives, customers tap the label with any smartphone and instantly see whether temperatures stayed within range. “They get an instant indicator, so they know straight away if there was an issue and can act on it. At the same time, we see the exact same report in our cloud dashboard. We don’t have to wait for a file to come back, which saves time for everyone.” This makes sustainable temperature monitoring for horticulture faster and more transparent for growers and their customers.
Ready for air, road and sea freight
The labels are already used for air and road shipments and will soon be tested for sea containers too. Anthura also plans to expand Tapp for its own storage monitoring, adding an extra layer of sustainable temperature monitoring in their greenhouses and cold stores.
Supporting sustainability goals
“Replacing the old meters and batteries means much less plastic waste. It fits our sustainability goals perfectly. For us, it has to be easy, and with Tapp, it is. We’d definitely recommend it to others in the horticulture sector.”
