Wireless and Predictive Tech for Sustainable Supply Chains

Centaur modernizes how perishables and time-sensitive goods are protected after harvest or production – combining AI, IoT, and digital simulation to prevent losses and preserve quality across the supply chain.

Our patented wireless sensor technology monitors CO₂, moisture, temperature, and other key indicators in real time. When spoilage or biological activity begins, our system detects the earliest warning signs—long before traditional methods. Combined with digital twin models, our platform predicts outcomes and automates interventions like aeration or temperature control, ensuring safe, climate-adaptive storage and transit.

From grain silos to cold chains, Centaur empowers producers, processors, and logistics operators to make proactive decisions, reduce waste, and unlock operational savings.

Our team blends 30+ years of experience in storage and quality assurance with deep technical expertise in smart sensing, data science, and AI, delivering solutions trusted by leaders in agriculture, food, and beyond.
