About Trendfire Technologies
Trendfire Technologies GmbH is a telematics provider based in Böblingen that has specialized in fleet management for forwarding and transport companies since 2003. The company develops and manufactures its hardware and software entirely in-house in Germany – from circuit board layout to the finished product. The portfolio includes telematics units for trucks and trailers, GPS trackers, wireless sensors for temperature and door monitoring, and RFID solutions for coupling detection. In the web-based portal roadlox, GPS tracking, driving and rest times, remote tachograph download, driving style analysis, temperature monitoring and automated expense calculation come together; the telematics app Trendfire Trucking connects drivers and dispatch. Customers come from forwarding and logistics, refrigerated and food transport, bulk transport, construction and concrete (including in cooperation with Schwing Stetter and Putzmeister), as well as from trades and service fleets. Around 35 employees work at the headquarters in Böblingen, at the Oberuzwil site (Switzerland) and in the USA.
