melita.io and Realinnova Team Up to Transform IoT Connectivity Solutions in Spain

melita.io in partnership with Realinnova, is expanding its presence in the Spanish IoT market. This collaboration combines melita.io’s IoT connectivity solutions with Realinnova’s digital transformation expertise, benefiting Spanish businesses in sectors like healthcare, hospitality, logistics and smart cities. The partnership, announced at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, aims to provide tailored IoT solutions that improve operational efficiency and foster innovation. With melita.io’s robust network infrastructure, businesses in Spain can now adopt secure, scalable IoT connectivity networks, including 2G, 3G, LTE, 5G and NB-IoT, to enhance productivity.

Practical Solutions Transforming Industries
Businesses in Spain are already experiencing transformative impacts through tailored IoT solutions powered by melita.io and Realinnova. Two compelling examples are Ulbios and CashSecurity, which illustrate how practical IoT applications create real-world benefits for companies facing specific operational challenges.

Ulbios: Smart IoT for Safer Water Management
One critical application of IoT solutions in Spain is water management, especially with recent stringent regulations like Royal Decree 487/2022 on Legionella prevention and EU Directive 2020/2184 concerning water quality. Here, melita.io and Realinnova collaborated to support Ulbios, an innovative water-monitoring solution.

Ulbios is transforming how buildings manage water quality by harnessing the power of IoT technology. Smart biosensors installed directly into plumbing systems continuously monitor chemical, physical and biological parameters, including temperature, pressure, pH, oxidation-reduction potential (ORP) and biofilm development. Thanks to secure, reliable IoT connectivity from melita.io, this critical data is sent in real time to the Ulbios Analytics platform.

By proactively tracking conditions that could encourage Legionella growth, Ulbios gives facilities managers the insights they need to act early, optimise sanitation processes and maintain safer environments. This predictive approach ensures compliance with health regulations and drives real operational benefits: improving efficiency, extending equipment life and cutting down on unnecessary maintenance.

Ulbios also helps organisations meet their sustainability goals by reducing energy and water waste, fully aligning with Spain’s new Water Health Plan requirements for the tertiary sector from 2024. With Ulbios, water management becomes smarter, safer and more sustainable, making it easier to protect both people and resources.

CashSecurity: Ensuring Uninterrupted POS Connectivity
In the fast-paced hospitality and retail industry, ensuring consistent Point-of-Sale (POS) system reliability is crucial. CashSecurity, a leading provider of POS hardware and automated cash management solutions for restaurants and retail, faced a significant challenge: ensuring that their cash machines remained operational without interruption, even in the busiest environments. To solve this, they turned to Realinnova and melita.io for a backup connectivity solution, ensuring their POS systems stayed connected even during potential network disruptions.

By integrating melita.io’s IoT SIM technology, CashSecurity has been able to implement a solution that focuses on maintenance and prevention rather than simply reacting to failures. With this IoT-based connectivity, the POS systems can be remotely monitored and predictive maintenance can be carried out, helping to identify potential issues before they become problems. Additionally, all IoT SIMs are centrally managed through a single IoT platform, making the entire system easier to control and oversee.

By leveraging melita.io’s IoT connectivity, CashSecurity has reduced the need for on-site interventions to resolve connectivity issues, as many problems can now be addressed remotely. This proactive approach significantly minimises downtime, ensuring continuous service and improving overall operational efficiency. With fewer technical disruptions, restaurant staff can focus more on providing excellent customer experiences rather than dealing with equipment failures.

Through its partnership with Realinnova and melita.io, CashSecurity has strengthened the reliability of their POS systems and enhanced operational efficiency, delivering a smoother and more sustainable experience for both the business and its customers.

Expanding the IoT Ecosystem Nationwide
melita.io’s partnership with Realinnova positions the company at the forefront of Spain’s IoT growth, offering businesses robust connectivity and genuine tools for digital transformation. Through collaboration with top Spanish networks such as Orange, Movistar, Vodafone and YOIGO, melita.io guarantees seamless, multi-network roaming coverage with failover capabilities, ensuring the best available signal in the area for reliable IoT deployments.

To strengthen its global capabilities, melita.io has recently acquired Crout’s high-speed, low-latency connectivity solutions, which make use of 4G and 5G networks worldwide to ensure fast, reliable connections. Alongside its existing IoT SIM offerings from €5/Gb on a pay-per-use basis, melita.io has also acquired IoT-SIM.tech’s Lifetime IoT SIM technology, designed for IoT devices that require low power consumption and long-term connectivity. With plans offering up to 10 years of value, this technology is a perfect fit for businesses looking for sustainable, long-term connectivity solutions. These strategic acquisitions will make IoT solutions more accessible, affordable and resilient, positioning melita.io to better meet the growing and ever-changing demands of various industries across the globe.
