Open Monitor
The company PolyTaksys GmbH is specialised in the patented Open Monitor Technology: a nano film processor. The principle is based on the lateral oxidation of aluminum covered windows –depending time, temperature and humidity or a combination of these. This self-sustaining smart label offers exciting solutions in a wide range of areas. As information becomes visible chronologically according to various parameters, new possibilities can be created.
All work and project areas for the development of creative solutions, customized to your needs – from the initial idea to the implementation in your workflow. Expertises from food saving for chilled products to 4in1 advertising!
The start of this patent development was in 2011 with the takeover of the exclusive distribution of Smart Label Innovation Technology, which was called “PolyTaksys” at the time. In 2016, this was also transferred from pure laboratory development with several basic researchers to a separate company, PolyTaksys, with Managing Director Torsten Münich.
In collaboration with our printing partner, our team of PhD chemists has transferred the Open Monitor technology into market-ready mass production.
- The production capacity is several million labels per day. With prices in the lowest cent range, which meet the requirements of the food industry. In the event of packaging integration, prices can be reduced even further.
- The inclusion of a first external investor in 2024 provides us with the basis for the next round of financing to establish the product worldwide in selected industries.
- Our technology offers compatibility with third-party technologies and extends its analog and optical readability via RFID to digital readability and thus parallel readability of measured environmental influences.
TheThe market entry will take place in 2025 with an opening time control for dairy products from a market-leading company. In addition, there will be labels for end consumers for private use, which can be purchased both online and in stationary retail outlets. Further information on this announcement is available on request. Below you can see a functional example of the opening time control over 3 days.
Briefly explained using the example of juice packaging:
Most juices have a consumption recommendation from the manufacturer: Consume within 2-3 days after opening.
- After opening the product, our label is automatically activated.
- Consumer A stores the juice in the fridge at 6 degrees – and receives a consumption recommendation for 6 days if stored correctly.
- Consumer B stores the juice at room temperature – and thus receives a consumption recommendation of only 2-3 days.
- Our label opens depending on the storage conditions.
- The manufacturer’s consumption recommendations can be individually adjusted in terms of duration, thus reducing the safety buffer and therefore also food waste.
