As global demand for precious metal logistics continues to rise, ensuring security and timeliness has become a critical challenge for the industry. Since 2021, Jointech has been providing customized smart terminal devices to support SF Express in enhancing the safety and visibility of its high-value logistics operations. These smart terminals play a key role in enabling SF Express to maintain a record of zero incidents and zero loss in its precious metal transportation network.
High-Security Logistics Requires High-Precision Control
Precious metals logistics requires security standards far beyond typical cargo. SF Express employs a combined land-air transport model: during air transit, shipments are loaded onto dedicated pallets on all-cargo aircraft, with specialized personnel overseeing the process. After transiting Shenzhen, goods are transported by cross-border trucks to Hong Kong, accompanied by armed escorts for land segments.
Within this framework, Jointech's customized smart electronic GPS locks and terminals play a critical role in enhancing real-time transport monitoring and reducing human risks, significantly boosting operational safety and efficiency.
Jointech Customized Smart Terminals: Strengthening Transport Safety
At critical nodes in SF Express's precious metal transportation, Jointech's smart electronic lock terminals serve as the "digital guardians" ensuring cargo security. These devices feature:
Real-time location tracking and route recording
Accurate lock/unlock status feedback
Intelligent alarms for unauthorized openings
Compatibility and integration with client monitoring platforms
Especially during cross-border transport and bonded warehouse operations, Jointech's smart terminals help SF Express achieve seamless integration from physical lock control to data collection, greatly enhancing visibility and control over the entire transportation process.
Creating a Transparent and Traceable Security Process
Jointech's smart terminals integrate smoothly with SF Express's existing monitoring systems, enabling real-time synchronization of cargo status and lock control information throughout transport. During air transit, the devices accompany the shipment, continuously recording status changes at key points such as loading, unloading, and transfer. On land, the terminals work alongside armed escort teams to ensure full visibility of cargo status in transit, effectively preventing unauthorized interference.
Continuous data recording and uploading create a traceable data chain for every stage of transportation, providing strong support for SF Express's internal management and customer service.

Supporting Supply Chain Finance with Reliable Data
With the gradual adoption of the "Technical Specifications for Smart Warehouse Inventory Supervision," Jointech's smart terminals have become increasingly valuable in supply chain finance applications. Leveraging the data collected by these devices, enterprises can provide accurate, verifiable status certificates for movable asset pledging, warehouse receipt financing, and other financial services, effectively meeting stringent regulatory requirements for transparency and control.
The device data can be integrated into clients' own systems, facilitating a closed-loop digital supervision process and serving as an essential tool for compliance and risk management.
Empowering High-Security Logistics with Custom IoT Technology
Jointech's smart terminals supplied for this collaboration not only help SF Express strengthen safety protocols in high-risk, high-value logistics but also demonstrate Jointech's ability to deliver customized solutions for complex transportation scenarios across industries. Currently, Jointech's intelligent terminal products are widely deployed in over 80 countries, supporting demanding environments such as container monitoring, tanker truck transport, cold chain logistics, and hazardous materials transportation.
Looking ahead, Jointech will continue to drive innovation as its core strength, providing smarter, more reliable IoT terminals to customers worldwide and promoting a new level of digitalization and security in global high-value logistics.
