Tuffscreen protects Argos investment in mobile delivery devices

Bristol-based business Tuffscreen’s industrial-strength screen protection has recently been deployed to protect the screens of the latest mobile delivery device investment by Argos.

As part of an Argos project to modernise their internal delivery operations from distribution centres to store and onwards to their customers they made the decision to replace their existing mobile devices with electronic proof of delivery (ePoD) devices and satellite navigation (sat-nav) devices.

Project manager Sharon Cartwright was charged with ensuring that these devices met the right performance criteria of operation and reliability, was keen to ensure that these heavily-used devices remained in operation throughout their lifespan and beyond so as to maximise return on investment and reduce operating costs.

In order to eliminate damage to these devices Sharon decided to invest in Tuffscreen screen protectors. Sharon says; “I was very impressed with Tuffscreen’s screen protectors from the outset. Their rugged look and feel does not inhibit the screen operation in any way, either visually or in terms of touch response for data input, whether this is via finger or stylus. Tuffscreen were able to be very flexible and responsive to our demands, delivering in multiple batches to assist with our device rollout, and they’ve represented an excellent investment as we’ve not seen a single device with a damaged screen!”

These devices represent a significant investment and are vital for the daily workflow of hundreds of people and thousands of deliveries. Ensuring that they remain in working order is of paramount importance to ensure customer service standards are met and deliveries are made as scheduled and to ensure costs of vehicles are controlled so as maintain Argos’ profit levels, assisting with their competitiveness in an ever-increasingly competitive high street environment.

Tuffscreen screen protectors are a purpose-designed industrial strength screen protection solution. They are made from an impact absorbing gel layer which is chemically bonded to a scratch and abrasion-resistant hard sheet which helps to eliminate all causes of screen damage. They are custom-cut for each device to ensure a consistently high quality product.
