What is
Everything your drivers, pickers and field teams carry and rely on: rugged computers, printers, scanners, in-vehicle devices and the management platform behind them.
Scroll the diagram sideways to see every capability.
Touchstar specifies, deploys and supports that estate as one, built for operational environments and backed in the UK, so the technology in your team’s hands keeps working shift after shift.
Warehouse
Handhelds and wearables for barcode scanning and pick confirmation across high-volume shifts, keeping your WMS accurate in real time. PWS has run Touchstar devices for 20 years.
Cold Storage and Food Logistics
Devices that keep working below zero, where consumer hardware fails. Magnavale and QK Cold Stores rely on them every shift, and P&B Foods runs distribution on them.
Fuel Distribution
ATEX-certified in-cab devices, including our own TS3300, built for fuel delivery in hazardous areas, where every device on the vehicle must meet the certification the load demands.
Retail
Handhelds and printers for picking, packing and returns in retail warehouses, keeping stock accurate across channels. Lakeland, and Damart run their warehouses on Touchstar devices.
Manufacturing
Handhelds and vehicle-mount devices on forklifts track materials from goods-in to dispatch, built for shop-floor dust and knocks. Fragrance Oils upgraded its IT infrastructure with Touchstar devices.
Third Party Logistics
Client SLAs depend on accuracy, so handhelds and printers keep picks, pallets and labels correct across accounts. Expect Distribution runs palletised and contract logistics on Touchstar devices.
Rugged Mobile Computers
The core of the estate: handhelds, wearables and tablets for the warehouse floor and last-mile delivery, from the Touchstar Rugged range and partners Zebra, Honeywell and Advantech.
Vehicle-Mounted and In-Cab Devices
Truck-mount terminals and in-vehicle hardware for forklift, yard and fleet work, including vehicle-mount devices and our own TS3300, an ATEX-certified in-cab device for use in hazardous areas.
Mobile Printing and Scanning
Rugged mobile printers and barcode scanners that travel with the workflow, from printing proof of delivery receipts in the cab to labelling stock across the warehouse floor.
Mobile Device Management
SOTI-based MDM, delivered as an Altitude Partner Programme member, to deploy, lock down and support your whole estate remotely, from ten devices up to a national fleet.
