The rapid development of video technology is changing the way transport fleets monitor risks and respond to threats. Find out how cameras and image analysis can significantly improve the safety of drivers and the entire fleet.
The increasing digitization of international transportation means that EU regulations are increasingly affecting the way transport is planned and executed. To consciously prepare your company for the new responsibilities and challenges of e-transportation, it's worth taking a look at the latest regulatory changes.
The growing complexity of transportation operations is making the skillful use of telematics data one of the key elements in building a competitive advantage - both in terms of driver safety and fleet-wide efficiency. Find out what support telematics data provides in this regard.

Correctly set tire pressure is a decisive factor for economic efficiency, safety and sustainability in the vehicle fleet. Especially in conjunction with telematics solutions, TPMS enable high savings potentials that can be empirically proven. In long-distance transportation, for example, more than EUR 1,500 can be saved per truck and year in diesel costs alone. Added to this are savings from tires that can be used for longer and prevented breakdowns and accidents.
There is no doubt that closely monitoring the tire pressure of your own fleet makes good economic and ecological sense. Tedious manual measurement has long since been replaced by modern tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS). However, there are two types of technology available—direct (dTPMS) and indirect TPMS (iTPMS). Direct TPMS is the more technically sophisticated variant, which delivers more accurate results. A distinction can also be made between integrated and non-integrated TPMS. Integrated direct TPMS provide decision-makers with a reliable basis for decision-making and thus offer the greatest possible benefit.
Tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS) have been required by law in the EU since July 2024. This applies to new commercial vehicles with a gross vehicle weight rating of more than 3.5 tons and affects trucks, buses, motorhomes, and trailers. If done correctly, fleet operators can generate a major strategic advantage from this requirement. To do so, it is crucial to consistently integrate TPMS into their own fleet and any existing telematics solution. This, in turn, requires careful planning. A typical rollout consists of five phases, from inventory to monitoring.
