Starting point.
Starting point.
Over time, something wasn’t adding up. Loads were leaving full and arriving lighter. With no tamper-proof system or shared visibility between stakeholders, pinpointing the problem was nearly impossible.
The losses revealed how difficult it was to maintain full control across the transport chain.
How do you secure a moving target - without slowing down the operations?
From the start, ALCEA approached the problem not just as a security issue, but as a workflow challenge.
The team took time to understand PENOX’s logistics flow, identified key points of vulnerability, and designed a lock-and-key system that could be integrated without slowing things down.
After reviewing several technologies, they chose to implement ABLOY PROTEC² CLIQ, a secure, trackable connected locking system tailored for high-value logistics.
Today, every truck is equipped with tamper-proof locks, installed in minutes and managed centrally. Each locking event is tracked, giving PENOX visibility into when & where each load is secured and opened.
Since the system’s implementation, no irregularities have been reported. What stood out was ALCEA’s ability to align the solution with real-world operations, combining technical reliability with responsive support at every stage.
