Our team at Global Sensors has extensive experience in working with professionals in the logistics and supply chain industries, and we offer a wide variety of high-quality sensors to help you make sure your shipments arrive in good condition. One of the key types of sensors that we offer monitors and tracks humidity levels. In this article, we will go over a few reasons why you need a humidity sensor for each shipment.

Why You Need a Humidity Sensor for Your Shipment

  • Protect Humidity Sensitive Goods. The first reason why you need at least one humidity sensor in each shipment is that many goods are sensitive to humidity fluctuations—for example, excess humidity can cause food to grow mold and can cause wooden items to warp. Our team offers accurate sensors that will allow you to monitor the humidity levels in your shipments and prevent these kinds of problems from occurring.
  • Stay Informed. Another reason to equip your shipments with humidity sensors is that it allows you to stay informed about their condition. Our sensors will give you real-time information on the humidity levels and will alert you when things are approaching the outer bounds of acceptable limits.
  • Learn and Adjust. A third reason to use our humidity sensors in your shipments is that they provide detailed data about humidity levels and fluctuations that you can then use to refine your approach. You can examine the data reports for patterns, then use that data to make adjustments to your operation, preventing similar issues from occurring in the future.
