CropWatch®|United States & Global

Cold-chain & refrigeration

Every cooler and freezer, watched around the clock.

Continuous wireless temperature and humidity monitoring for restaurants, hotels, schools, hospitals, grocery and cold storage - with HACCP-ready records an inspector can trust.

The problem with clipboards

Manual logs fail you exactly when it counts.

schedule

Gaps overnight & on weekends

A freezer can drift for hours between manual checks. By the time someone writes it down, product is already lost.

edit_off

Records that don't hold up

Hand-written sheets get back-filled, smudged, or lost - and won't survive a serious audit or a recall investigation.

payments

Shrink you can't explain

Without continuous data you can't prove what spoiled, when, or why - so the loss just becomes someone's bad week.

How it works

Mounted in minutes. Logging forever.

1

Mount the sensor

Stick or screw a battery-powered sensor inside each cooler, freezer or display case. No wiring, no drilling into the box.

2

Pair to a gateway

One LoRaWAN gateway covers a whole building - even through thick freezer walls - and connects to the cloud.

3

Set your limits

Define safe ranges per unit. Pick who gets an SMS, email or call - with no caps on rules or recipients.

4

Prove it

Every reading is logged automatically. Export a clean, time-stamped PDF the moment an inspector asks.

Audit-ready by default

HACCP records that defend themselves.

Continuous, tamper-evident logs with NIST-traceable accuracy - and dual-sensor verification so a drifting probe can never quietly corrupt your history.

  • check Automatic, time-stamped readings - nothing to back-fill
  • check One-click PDF and CSV exports for any date range
  • check Per-serial ISO/IEC 17025 certificates for every sensor
  • check Corrective-action notes logged against each excursion

Why the sensor wins

The strongest sensor in the cold aisle.

Anyone can stick a thermometer in a freezer. CropWatch is engineered so the number you log is one you can defend - and so a failing sensor never quietly becomes a failed audit.

workspace_premium

ISO/IEC 17025 certified - individually

Every sensor is calibrated in an accredited process and ships with its own NIST-traceable certificate tied to its exact serial number. Not a batch sheet - proof for the specific device on your wall, downloadable the moment an inspector asks.

fact_check

Dual-sensor design - error, never a lie

Two independent elements cross-check every reading. If they disagree, the device refuses to publish and raises an error code instead. You will never log an inaccurate number - "no data" beats "wrong data" every single time.

cached

Field-replaceable - no calibration downtime

On-site calibration eats hours and, without lab-grade reference equipment, introduces error. CropWatch skips it entirely: snap in a pre-calibrated module in under a minute. No truck roll, no guesswork, no gap in your records.

battery_horiz_075

User-replaceable battery

When the cell finally runs down after years of service, you swap it yourself - no returning the unit, no proprietary service call. The sensor stays exactly where it is and keeps right on logging.

cell_tower

LoRa - built for deep-freeze penetration

Wi-Fi and Bluetooth die at the freezer wall. Our LoRa-based signal pushes through thick insulated panels and below-grade walk-ins, so a single gateway blankets the whole building - even the boxes others can't reach.

verified_user

Proven stability & real support

An unmatched track record for long-term sensor stability, backed by people who actually pick up when you need them. The hardware self-audits and flags drift before it misleads you - and we're there when it counts.

Questions

Cold-chain monitoring FAQ

Does it work inside a metal walk-in freezer? add

Yes. LoRaWAN punches through thick freezer walls far better than Wi-Fi or Bluetooth, and a single gateway typically covers an entire building. For very large or below-grade sites we add a second gateway.

Will the records satisfy a health inspector or HACCP audit? add

That's what they're built for. Readings are logged automatically with NIST-traceable accuracy, dual-sensor verification, and per-serial ISO/IEC 17025 certificates. You can export a clean, time-stamped report for any range in one click.

What happens if a sensor fails or drifts? add

The dual-sensor design catches a drifting element and withholds the reading rather than logging a wrong one. The hardware also self-audits and raises a fault. When a module reaches end of life, you swap it yourself in under a minute.

Are there per-user or per-report fees? add

No. Unlimited users, alert rules, recipients, reports and full API access are included with the sensors - no tiers, no seat licenses, no metered exports.
