MSR145 & MSR165 used for the big German eBay Magazine parcel dispatch test
Six large parcel delivery companies are competing for the business of private eBay sellers in Germany. In November the German eBay Magazine used the MSR145 and MSR165 dataloggers in a test to find out which of the delivery companies (DHL, DPD, GLS, Hermes, iloxx and UPS) took best care of the goods. The high-tech dataloggers from MSR uncovered the details on what happened to the parcels in transit.  The result: parcels were not handled gently underway - the data recorded by the loggers indicated that the measurement threshold of 15g was exceeded repeatedly for all of the parcels tested. In other words, the parcels were regularly subjected to forces of over 40kg. The temperature variations during transit also proved interesting. The Hermes parcel reached 30 degrees but was then cooled down to 8 degrees. In addition to the way in which the parcels were handled, the eBay Magazine test also took into consideration criteria such as price, speed of delivery, customer service and other quality characteristics. The clear overall winner was. industry giant DHL! (Source: eBay Magazine 4/2009).
Protect your goods during transit!
Seamless data recording makes the monitoring of delicate goods in transit much simpler. Regardless of whether you as a manufacturer are despatching machines worth several hundred thousand Francs to your customers, or if you are sending foodstuffs, chemicals or other sensitive goods - the reliable recording of data is essential. Any damage during transit can be identified at an early stage and conditions can be reconstructed fully - even questions of liability can be assessed objectively. Using one of the small MSR dataloggers can save you a great deal of time, frustration and most of all, money!
