ROYALE G, a Revolutionary Premium Herb Grinder, Launches on Indiegogo

As the global cannabis movement gains momentum through emerging legislation and mainstream popularity, cannabis advocate organization Pre-Royale has launched its inaugural premium product on Indiegogo – ROYALE G The Most Revolutionary Herb Grinder.

With demand for quality products and accessories growing, Pre-Royale is poised to meet this need by developing high-end products for the worldwide cannabis community by combining luxury and style with functionality.

"It's not only about great products, it's about the movement," said Pre-Royale Founder Marcus Lee. "With its patent-pending design, ROYALE G is a revolutionary prestigious product designed to change lives on a deep, personal level. ROYALE G takes the traditional grinder concept to the next level – featuring everything you will find on your standard grinder, but with a modern, sophisticated and elegant design and many new features all consumers will love." Read here.

ROYALE G features include:

Gold-Plated Trim: ROYALE G brings convenience and luxury into one product, with a "splash of gold" for a sophisticated premium feel. It embodies a stigma breaking message which showcases the new cannabis culture and lifestyle.

Multi-Functional Clip Scooper: An innovative accessory that makes it easy to scoop and navigate ground herb after securing the grinder, with no need for direct contact that often results in "sticky fingers."

Modular Design: Perfect for travel, the conveniently-sized herb grinder is ideal for life on-the-move – offering portability and a size-adjustable design. Great for separating strains as desired.

Airtight Storage Compartment: Scale down to the portable model and use the spare compartment as an airtight storage with the two additional lids provided. It's a two-in-one grinder and storage package deal.

Double Anodized Aerospace Grade Aluminum: Built to be durable, this cutting-edge specific form of aluminum acts as a security vault for bud, providing protection with incredible strength and an ultra-soft finish.

"We love the grinder's sleek anodized aerospace-grade aluminum build, and we know our customers will too," Lee said. "The gold-trim accent seals the deal, with a luxurious design that reimagines the global cannabis movement. But it's about more than fancy features. It's about empowerment and making consumers part of something bigger…something revolutionary."

Lee says the Pre-Royale Team is passionate about delivering impeccable quality, first with ROYALE G and with future luxury products.

"We're proud to be cultivating a new culture and lifestyle for cannabis enthusiasts worldwide, inspiring our fellow consumers to live their lives on their terms," he said. "Many users are afraid to express their passions, fearing embarrassment, judgement…or even job loss. We're here to change that by making cannabis usage classy, stylish and luxurious for everyone. Today, doctors, lawyers, architects, musicians, and professionals of all kinds are becoming more aware of the undeniable benefits of cannabis."

Stay Metrics Releases Case Study on PS Logistics’ Success Using Driver Rewards, Surveys

Stay Metrics, the leading provider of driver retention tools for motor carriers, announces a new case study on PS Logistics (PSL). The latest addition to the company's ongoing Success Metrics series shares the story of how one of the nation's largest flatbed carriers has sustained rapid growth over the last 15 years by maintaining a complete commitment to drivers. You can read the full case study on the Stay Metrics website.

PSL and its partner carriers operate a combined fleet of 3,200 trucks. The company uses the Stay Metrics Drive for Gold Rewards Program to recognize drivers for performance, for compliments, for clean inspections and many other professional achievements. Click here.

The privately branded rewards program keeps drivers engaged by earning points from various recognition categories. As points accumulate, drivers redeem them for tens of thousands of items or travel options through the fleet's Drive for Gold online portal.

Stay Metrics also administers driver onboarding surveys for PSL. The surveys check-in with new driver hires during critical periods of early employment to gauge their attitudes and expectations and to determine if their expectations match the realities of the job.

PSL receives immediate alerts if any responses indicate that a driver has an elevated risk of leaving. With these insights, PSL managers have been able to successfully intervene with high-risk drivers to prevent turnover.

"PS Logistics has been a quiet leader in the open deck sector over the years and consistently outperforms its peers in driver retention. I believe this success is a result of the company's culture shining through and reflects its commitment to investing in retention tools, like what we do, to help improve the lives of drivers," said Tim Hindes, Co-Founder and CEO of Stay Metrics.

The case study also examines the strategies PSL uses to excel among its peers in the trucking industry, such as giving drivers a choice in loads and using a percentage pay model. Both strategies reflect the company's core commitment to fairness.

"We won't cut corners to grow," stated Scott Smith, Chief Executive of PSL based in Birmingham, Ala.

The full Success Metrics case study on PSL is available to anyone at no cost on the Stay Metrics website. Carriers that have been featured in past case studies include Load One, Liquid Trucking, Brady Trucking, and Ag Transport.

Tompkins Robotics, a Business Unit of Tompkins International, Partners with PULSE Integration to Expand Delivery of its Warehouse Robots

Tompkins Robotics, a leading provider of portable, scalable autonomous mobile robots (AMRs), has announced a strategic partnership with PULSE Integration to deliver its t-Sort solution to companies looking to keep up with rising and evolving customer demands.

Headquartered in Pittston, Pennsylvania, PULSE Integration leverages a blend of best-in-class digital and physical technologies to deliver customized, scalable supply chain solutions for clients in the manufacturing, 3PL and retail industries. As part of the alliance, PULSE will offer Tompkins Robotics' t-Sort systems to help its clients streamline and improve fulfillment operations.

"Tompkins Robotics' t-Sort solution helps our customers keep up with growing fulfillment and shipping needs while achieving high speed and accuracy," said Chris Paulsen, CEO of PULSE Integration. "Their flexible, fully modular solution enables our clients to implement leading automation that is flexible, scalable and configurable at a lower cost and in less time of traditional sortation systems."

Ideal for small to large distribution operations, t-Sort is a portable, scalable robotic sortation system that operates similar to a tilt tray sorter without a fixed track, moving freely to any divert or induction station along the shortest path. Capable of handling parcels and units as small as a penny and up to 66 pounds, the t-Sort system can process a wide variety of items including apparel, shoe boxes, general merchandise, shipping bags, small-to-medium boxes and more. Its applications include e-commerce, retail replenishment, returns, shipping and can even be deployed in the backroom of a postal or retail location. While automation can sometimes require a large upfront investment, the t-Sort system is fully modular and additional robots can be added or removed instantaneously without any interruption or downtime—a great perk for retailers that need to ramp up for holiday or peak seasons.

Robots continue to gain momentum in the warehouse, with many companies turning to automation to help address the current labor shortage and rising costs. According to ABI Research, more than 4 million robots will be installed in more than 50,000 warehouses by 2025, up from just less than 4,000 robotic warehouses in 2018.

"We are excited to partner with PULSE Integration and help support their mission to provide clients with technology solutions that are capable of adapting and scaling to meet constantly evolving consumer and supply requirements," said Mike Futch, president of Tompkins Robotics.

Tompkins Robotics' award-winning t-Sort system is used by some of the world's top retailers and shippers, which together represent more than $1 trillion in annual revenue and include retail, e-commerce, 3PL, and package and postal channels. The company also integrates with key partners to grow its overall offering on its goal of providing dock to dock robotic automation in logistics facilities.
