Joseph Haulage, a leader in high temperature tanker transportation across Ontario, Quebec, and the U.S., wanted to solve a persistent industry issue: proving temperature integrity from loading to delivery. Their customers were asking for proof. Their drivers were guessing when to reheat and their dispatch team lacked visibility.
That changed with TGI Connect’s Vizicube Sensor with Probe.
Challenge
High temperature loads such as asphalt, pitch, and tars must be delivered within strict temperature ranges to remain usable.
Previously, Joseph Haulage relied on:
- Analog temperature gauges only readable when trailers were stopped
- Verbal driver check-ins to monitor heat
- Limited tools to resolve customer disputes about load temperature
- Manual reheat decisions, often based on guesswork
This created operational blind spots, wasted burner fuel, and strained customer trust.
Solution
Joseph Haulage implemented the Vizicube Sensor with Probe on 60+ trailers. The solution provides:
- Accurate temperature monitoring in transit, loading, and unloading
- Integration with ISAAC in-cab tablets for driver visibility
- A custom-built client portal to share temperature and ETA data
- Low-temp alerts customized per commodity (e.g., below 400°F)
Impact
To brainstorm on how to solve this problem, Joseph Haulage engaged with TGI Connect to transform how they manage and communicate heat-sensitive shipments:
- Reduced load rejections: “Now we can show exactly when and at what temperature a load was delivered.”
- Optimized fuel and reheat cycles: Drivers make informed burner decisions instead of defaulting to unnecessary reheats.
- Enhanced sales credibility: With data in hand, their sales team confidently promises “less than 5° heat loss in transit.”
- Client transparency: Real-time ETA and temp data is shared with shippers and receivers through their portal.
- Fast install, zero disruption: “We can install a Vizicube Probe in 3-5 minutes.”
Why It Matters
According to Gregg Ianuzzi – Executive VP at Joseph Haulage, “We’re not just a trucking company anymore. We’re a tech company. Our customers want proof and visibility. Vizicube gives us both.”
For tanker carriers handling sensitive or high-value liquid loads, Vizicube Sensor with Probe offers an unmatched advantage:
- Protect margins by avoiding rejections
- Prove load integrity in seconds
- Gain a powerful differentiator in a commoditized market
