Kolombo Announces the Development of a Security Application to Counter Bio-Terrorism in Food Transportation

MONTREAL, QUEBEC ("Kolombo") announces that it successfully completed a series of tests for a security application dedicated to liquid and solid food transportation.

This prevention application against alterations of liquid and solid food cargo allows detection of variations of certain criteria, such as temperature or pressure inside the container or cistern, which can affect food quality. It is also possible to ascertain whether or not the container or cistern has been opened after leaving the plant or if additives have been added during transit. Following this successful testing, completed with the collaboration of a client, Kolombo plans to begin commercialization in the next weeks and has already identified several additional clients interested by such an application.

"This security application will permit to confirm that food conservation during transit has been optimal and that no external factor may have affected quality and integrity", declares Mr. Martin Arsenault, President and Chief Executive Officer of Kolombo. "Since any unauthorized opening of the container or cistern and any unplanned stop during transportation are automatically identified, documented, communicated and controlled, we expect that this application will be used to counter food related bio-terrorism. This major innovation for the transportation industry goes way beyond simple theft prevention".

A distinctive solution

With the launch of its new exclusive IPS security management system, Kolombo considerably distinguishes itself from competitive security and management systems for merchandise transportation. Kolombo's technology allows the complete Integrity of cargo from point of loading to point of unloading; it improves operational Performance of trucking fleet managers and includes a refined Security system.
