Cold Chain · 3PL → 4PL → 5PL

The cold chain,
measured end to end.

KolWal couples a temperature-controlled mobility & storage network with an OT/IT data cloud and an AI advisor — so every batch, packet and degree of variance is visible from the factory floor to the customer's doorstep.

On the roadmap

02 — Data & AI

One data cloud for every reefer, room and route.

KolWal aggregates OT signals — compressors, sensors, gensets, doors — with IT systems from ERP and WMS to last-mile apps. The advisor sits on top, surfacing the next best action instead of another dashboard.

  • OT/IT data lakehouse with GS1-compliant batch model
  • Predictive excursion alerts up to 38 minutes ahead
  • Open APIs for ERP, WMS, retailer DCs and merchants
  • Audit-grade lineage for every degree, every door event

Predict

Reefer KW-RF-204 trending warm

Compressor cycle stretching by 6%. Re-route via DC-Pune adds 22 min, avoids 1.4°C excursion on 1,820 dairy units.

Optimise

Consolidate Lahore run, 18:40

Two partial loads (pharma + frozen seafood) share envelope at −18°C with vault separation. Saves 1 trip, holds GDP.

Notify

Retailer DC-12 door dwell exceeded

Door open 4m 12s on bay 7. Auto-message dispatched to floor manager; batch BX-77·140 quarantined for review.

03 — Capabilities

Mobility, storage, data — operated as one product.

05 — Responsible

Health-conscious by default — for merchants and the families they serve.

Energy-aware reefers

Telematics tune compressor duty cycles, cutting fuel burn 14% YoY.

Waste avoided

Predictive triage diverts at-risk loads — 3.2M units rescued in 2025.

Honest labels

QR on pack shows real cold-chain quality, not marketing claims.

Merchant care
