Customer Success Stories
Container theft, zero visibility into availability, and idle equipment sitting unused while teams searched for containers—PEP'S needed a tracking solution that worked even in low-connectivity areas. Discover how 300 smart trackers delivered real-time fleet visibility and immediate theft recovery across France's challenging terrain.
Challenge: PEP'S (Groupe Pizzorno) faced container theft and zero visibility into their fleet across France's Var region, causing idle resources and operational losses.
Solution: Sensolus trackers with real-time platform on 300 containers.
Results: Instant container visibility, rapid reassignment based on customer needs, and immediate theft detection—including one recovery where tracker data confirmed precise theft timing.
Why Sensolus: After comparative testing, Sensolus was the only solution maintaining reliable connectivity in low-connectivity rural areas, with intuitive platform requiring zero training and seamless implementation through French partner TRAKmy.
PEP’S (Pizzorno Environnement Professionnels Services), a subsidiary of Groupe Pizzorno Environnement, manages private and semi-public contracts with industrial clients, large retailers, schools, and hospitals. With over 50 years of expertise in environmental services, the company relies on its local presence, service orientation, and innovation to provide clients with reliable and sustainable waste management solutions.
In 2024, PEP’S sought a technological fleet tracking solution to optimize container management and improve operational efficiency. Sensolus, a European provider of Internet of Things (IoT) technology, and TRAKmy, Sensolus reseller in France and Europe, were selected by PEP’S to address these challenges.

Before adopting the Sensolus solution, PEP’S faced two major challenges: container theft and lack of visibility into container availability. Some containers remained stationary without being used, while others were difficult to locate quickly.
The consequence: limited resource utilization and operational losses.
In April 2024, PEP’S equipped its container fleet with 300 Sensolus trackers. Connected to the Sensolus IoT platform, these trackers enable logistics teams to locate each container in real-time.
The choice of this solution was confirmed after a comparative testing phase. In the Var region, where certain areas present connectivity challenges, Sensolus trackers demonstrated significantly superior reliability compared to competing solutions.
“During our trials, Sensolus was the only system capable of ensuring reliable connectivity everywhere, including in challenging areas. That made all the difference,” notes Michaël Bosselet.

Thanks to Sensolus, PEP’S now benefits from:
“The platform is simple and intuitive. Our teams immediately see which containers are available and where they’re located, which saves us unnecessary searches and verification calls. We have a centralized, real-time view of the entire fleet, allowing us to respond quickly to customer requests and secure our operations. It’s a true operational management tool that gives us greater responsiveness and reliability in our services,” adds Michaël Bosselet.
The project was implemented with support from TRAKmy, Sensolus’s distribution partner in France.
“The implementation went smoothly, with genuine technical and operational support. It’s a robust solution that integrates naturally into our practices,” concludes Michaël Bosselet.
Based in Nîmes, TRAKmy markets and deploys intelligent traceability solutions for waste management, industrial, and logistics operators in France and across Europe.
