Syngenta Flowers switches to paper data loggers

Syngenta Flowers has announced a partnership with Tapp to replace current single-use plastic data loggers with Tapp-paper data loggers. This partnership aims to provide greater sustainability and efficiency in data logging.

Switching from traditional plastic loggers to Tapp-devices intends to reduce plastic waste and sharply cut electronic waste from batteries and printed-circuit boards to LEDs, chips, and other electronic components.

Tapp dataloggers contain no lithium-ion batteries and are made from fibers extracted from post-harvest agricultural waste, which are subsequently turned into paper housing. After a single tap with a mobile device, it transfers temperature and humidity data to a secure cloud platform — visible to both shipper and receiver. The paper logger can be placed in the regular paper-recycling stream, reducing end-of-life handling time and overall electronic waste.
