Cellular tracking labels for logistics
SPORBRIK
A peel-and-stick cellular tracking label for outdoor shipments. No app, no pairing, no setup — peel the liner, stick it on, and it starts reporting location and temperature over the cellular network within minutes.

How it works
Peel
Remove the liner. That same motion pulls a battery-isolator tab and powers the label on — no button, no switch, nothing to charge first.
Stick
Apply it to a parcel, pallet, or container like any other label. It's flat enough to go unnoticed and built to handle outdoor transit.
Track
Within minutes it attaches to the cellular network and starts reporting location and temperature automatically, every 15 minutes, for at least 7 days.
How thin is it, really?
At ~3.7–4.2mm, SPORBRIK is slim enough to blend into your existing packaging — no bulky tracker bolted on, nothing extra to manage. Peel it, stick it, and it reports on its own for the rest of the shipment.
Cross-section, top to bottom
QR code + branding — ~0.02mm
Weatherproof laminate — ~0.075mm
Component & battery zone — ~3.2mm
PCB core — ~0.4mm
Adhesive — ~0.05–0.1mm
Total in-use thickness: ~3.7–4.2mm
Schematic, not to scale. The battery layer is what sets the overall thickness.

SPORBRIK label
(~3.7–4.2mm)
Roughly the height of five stacked credit cards — slim for a fully cellular-connected device with its own battery and sensor built in.
Built to disappear into your packaging
Every design decision favors simplicity for the people applying it — warehouse staff peel and stick, nothing else.
Nothing to charge, pair, or install
No batteries to swap, no app to download, no Bluetooth pairing required for the label to start reporting. Connectivity is automatic over the cellular network.
Ships ready to connect
Each label carries a pre-provisioned SIM, active from the moment it's activated, anywhere there's NB-IoT coverage in the EU.
Built for the outdoors
Weatherproof construction with an IP54 design target — made for packaging that sits outside and gets rained on, not just handled indoors.
Identifiable at a glance
Every label carries a unique QR code, scannable before or after activation, for instant lookup by warehouse staff or scanning equipment.
Straight to your dashboard
Scanning the QR code opens that label's page directly in your dashboard, where your team can assign it to a shipment or order ID — no separate app, no pairing, no manual asset numbers.

Battery life at a glance
Reporting window
Reports every 15 minutes, continuously, from activation through at least day 7 — real cells typically run 2–3 days past that floor.
See your entire fleet from one dashboard
Every label reports into a web dashboard your team already has access to — no separate app to install.
Geo-Guard alert
Label #A93F left the Rotterdam Geo-Guard zone at 14:32.
Shipment arrived
Label #7C21 reported inside the delivery zone for Order #48291.
Temperature alert
Label #B410 reports 9°C, outside the 15–25°C range set for this shipment.
Battery low
Label #E552 has about 1 day of reporting left.
Live fleet map
Every active label plotted on a map of your operations, refreshed as new reports come in. Location comes from the cellular network rather than GPS, so think 'which area a shipment is in' — accurate to roughly 200m–2km — rather than a pinpoint dot. Plenty to catch a shipment that's gone somewhere it shouldn't.
Geo-Guard
Draw a zone around a warehouse, port, or delivery region directly on the map. If a label crosses that boundary, you're notified immediately — useful for catching diverted trucks, misrouted containers, or theft.
Arrival notifications
Set a destination for a shipment and get notified the moment a label reports its position inside that area — no more refreshing a tracking page.
Temperature alerts
Each label reports ambient temperature alongside location. Set a safe range per shipment and get an alert the moment a label reports outside it.
Fleet battery health
See remaining battery life across every active label at a glance, so you know which shipments are approaching the end of their reporting window.
Scan to identify
Each label's printed QR code opens straight to its page in your dashboard. Scan it once at intake to assign a shipment or order ID — no app, no pairing, no separate scanner needed.
Built to plug into your stack
Prefer to build on top of it rather than live in a dashboard? A REST API and webhooks give your developers direct access to the same location, temperature, and alert data — so it can feed straight into your own logistics or warehouse software.
- REST API for device, location, and shipment data
- Webhooks for Geo-Guard, temperature, and arrival alerts
- Scoped API keys, one per account or integration

}Why logistics teams choose SPORBRIK
Disposable economics
Single-use pricing means no returns process, no reclaim logistics, no reusable-tracker fleet to manage.
Zero training
"Peel and stick" is the entire onboarding — no app to teach warehouse staff, no pairing steps to get wrong.
Built for real transit conditions
An IP54 design target means the label is meant to survive rain and outdoor handling, not just a dry warehouse shelf.
No infrastructure to install
Runs on existing cellular network coverage — no gateways, hubs, or readers to deploy at any site.
