Waypoint™ Smart Film

Food safety and sustainability go hand in hand. Processors and retailers need to be confident that their products are protected at every step of the supply chain. That’s why Farnell developed Waypoint™ — a recycle-ready smart pouch that combines advanced monitoring technology with sustainability.

With embedded sensors and unique identifiers, Waypoint™ makes it possible to track products from origin to consumer, monitoring conditions like temperature and humidity along the way. This visibility ensures food stays fresher, safer, and lasts longer — helping reduce costly food waste and demonstrating a commitment to sustainability.

At Farnell, we pride ourselves on helping companies move forward with innovative packaging solutions. If your organization is focused on food safety, supply chain integrity, and waste reduction, Waypoint™ is the smart packaging solution for you.

Why Customers Choose Waypoint™

Traceability & Visibility

Waypoint™ offers full chain of custody, including GPS tracking, condition monitoring, and digital identifiers. From processing facility to consumer, you’ll know exactly where your product is and how it has been handled.

Food Safety Confidence

With real-time monitoring of temperature and humidity, Waypoint™ helps ensure food is stored and transported under safe conditions. The packaging can also be configured to alert consumers (for example, if their salmon has been out of temperature range for too long).

Sustainability Benefits

By extending product freshness and reducing waste, Waypoint™ supports your sustainability goals. As a fully recycle-ready pouch, it also helps close the loop on packaging end-of-life.
