TrenStar Delivering Mobile Asset Management Solution to Martek

ProMat -- TrenStar Inc. announced today at the ProMat trade show that it will be delivering an outsourced mobile asset management solution to Martek Biosciences Corp., a company that develops and sells products derived from microalgae.

(I-Newswire) - TrenStar has signed an agreement to acquire Martek's container fleet and provide a management solution featuring radio frequency identification ( RFID ) tracking, systems integration, logistics, fleet assessment and procurement, and maintenance services including sterilization. TrenStar will provide reverse logistics for some domestic and European Martek customers.

"We look forward to working with TrenStar to efficiently manage our container inventory in the shipping of Martek's nutritional oils," said Martek CFO Pete Buzy.

"TrenStar's pay-per-use model, whereby Martek will outsource a technology-enabled container management service on a per-use basis, eliminates large up-front technology expenses, converts technology costs from fixed costs to variable costs, links total cost of the technology to realization of benefits, and fosters a long-term partnership between the two companies," said DeAnn Brunts, TrenStar executive vice president and chief financial officer.

TrenStar chief executive officer Greg Cronin said, "TrenStar's business model is proven to be flexible enough to surmount the challenges either unique to a customer or shared by an industry. Our solution provides significant benefit to most any asset-intensive industry where companies own and need to manage high-value containers as they flow through complex supply chains."
