Our rebranding effort better reflects the growth and direction of our company, bringing all of our products under an elegant, single-solution umbrella that provides perceptive, intelligent container monitoring and analytics.
Containers + intelligence.
Simple as that. Our solution raises container intelligence (CQ) with smarter insights that drive smarter actions, enabling the operational efficiencies and benefits that smarter companies seek.
Contelligent provides monitoring hardware, software and support for a variety of closed containers. Our monitors support hydraulic compactors, while our sensor is designed to support containers that may store fresh oil & lubricants, donations and textile collection, used cooking oil or waste oil. Contelligent is the only solution on the market that centralizes the monitoring across all these closed container types, helping you be smarter about waste and container management.
We work with a number of waste management, technology and recycling companies to improve (and in some cases overhaul) their container processes, resulting in more efficient, ecologically friendly practices that reduce CO2 emissions, toxic spills and even landfill overflow.
Don’t wait for the worst-case scenario before turning to us. Big or small, almost any closed container-related operation could benefit from Contelligent today. Whether having trouble standardizing your haul frequency, incorrectly forecasting peak periods or simply have an interest in diving deeper into your waste management processes, Contelligent can move you closer to your business goals.
