Trackunit unveils Kin T200 for Enhanced Asset Visibility for the Connected Jobsite
Trackunit has launched the Kin T200, its next-generation Bluetooth® asset tag that promises to redefine how construction professionals track and manage their equipment.
More rugged, more insightful, and easier to deploy, the T200 sets a new benchmark for visibility across tools, attachments, and non-powered assets. Designed for the realities of construction sites, it helps contractors, rental companies, and OEMs minimise downtime, cut costs, and recover lost tools faster.
Built for the extremes
The Kin T200 is a ruggedised, wireless device engineered to withstand the harshest conditions the construction industry can throw at it. With international durability certifications, it’s dustproof, waterproof, and resistant to high vibration and shock. Whether it’s mounted on a jackhammer in heavy rain or an excavator attachment in blistering heat, the T200 remains reliable.
Heini Brøndum, Vice President of IoT Devices at Trackunit, explained: “With Kin T200, we’re pushing boundaries in durability and laying the foundation for smarter equipment insights in construction. Engineered for real jobsites, it brings overlooked tools, attachments, and non-powered equipment into view so every asset contributes to productivity.”
Seamless plug-and-play integration
Time is money on a jobsite, and Trackunit has ensured the Kin T200 can be installed and activated in under a minute. The tag connects instantly to Trackunit’s global Bluetooth® network, integrating effortlessly with the company’s product ecosystem, including Trackunit Manager, On, and IrisX. Once deployed, the system offers immediate visibility, providing a clear picture of asset locations, usage, and condition across fleets, depots, and projects.
This plug-and-play simplicity means teams can start tracking their assets straight out of the box. The T200’s compact form and intelligent design make it suitable for a variety of applications, from small power tools and hand-held equipment to larger non-powered attachments.
Expanding global connectivity
Trackunit’s vast Bluetooth® network is among the most comprehensive in the industry, offering reliable coverage that spans job sites and depots worldwide. This global reach enables the T200 to deliver real-time insights wherever the equipment travels, ensuring no asset is ever truly out of sight.
The result is a more connected, transparent ecosystem that empowers users to make informed decisions about asset deployment and maintenance.
Smarter operations for every stakeholder
The Kin T200 isn’t just for contractors, it’s a versatile tool for every player in the construction value chain:
- Contractors gain instant visibility of smaller tools and attachments, reducing wasted time and improving jobsite efficiency.
- Rental companies benefit from automated cycle counts, accurate returns, and faster recovery of misplaced equipment.
- OEMs can integrate advanced data collection capabilities, including impact detection, temperature monitoring, and utilisation tracking.
These insights help optimise maintenance schedules, uphold warranties, and support predictive analytics that prevent breakdowns before they happen.
Data-driven visibility and accountability
The ability to track non-powered equipment has long been a challenge for construction managers. With Kin T200, these blind spots are finally illuminated. The device’s built-in sensors lay the groundwork for advanced analytics, providing data that goes beyond location to include impact and environmental factors. This wealth of information allows teams to proactively manage assets, improve accountability, and enhance operational performance.
Lærke Ullerup, Chief Marketing Officer at Trackunit, highlighted the real-world benefits: “Consistently we hear from customers how untracked equipment drains productivity and drives up costs. Evidence shows crews can lose up to 90 minutes a day searching for tools. Tool loss alone can reach a third of equipment cost, and rental yards face the burden of manual inventory checks. These are exactly the inefficiencies Kin T200 is built to address.”
From lost tools to lost profits
Untracked tools aren’t just an inconvenience; they’re a direct hit to a company’s bottom line. Trackunit’s data reveals that misplaced or underutilised equipment can account for significant financial losses across fleets. By bringing these hidden costs to light, the Kin T200 empowers businesses to reclaim control of their operations.
Ullerup added: “When assets are invisible, they become costly. With Kin T200, we’ve focused on rugged performance and clear visibility for often-overlooked equipment, helping customers reduce costs, streamline operations, and achieve productivity gains.”
Designed for the connected jobsite of the future
Trackunit’s mission is to eliminate downtime entirely from the construction industry, and the Kin T200 is a major step toward that goal. By extending visibility to every asset, no matter how small, the device helps build a connected ecosystem where data drives efficiency.
The T200’s future-ready platform supports advanced functionality, from OEM-specific usage insights to predictive maintenance analytics. As construction sites become smarter, the T200 is poised to play a central role in enabling data-driven decision-making across operations.
A unified ecosystem of intelligence
As part of Trackunit’s integrated SaaS ecosystem, the Kin T200 feeds data directly into applications like Trackunit Manager and IrisX. This seamless integration ensures that all equipment, powered or not, is visible and accounted for within the same dashboard. It’s a holistic approach that strengthens collaboration between contractors, OEMs, and rental companies.
Trackunit’s commitment to open connectivity means customers can also integrate the T200’s data into their existing enterprise systems, from ERP software to fleet management platforms, maximising value and interoperability.
Building a future without downtime
The launch of the Kin T200 cements Trackunit’s position as a global leader in connected construction technology. Combining durability, intelligence, and usability, the device represents a tangible step toward fully connected jobsites where every tool and attachment plays its part in maximising productivity.
By bridging the gap between visibility and intelligence, Trackunit’s latest innovation redefines how the industry approaches equipment management, transforming everyday tools into data-rich assets that contribute to a smarter, safer, and more efficient future for construction.
