Trackunit and Sunbelt expand fleet connectivity

Trackunit and Sunbelt Rentals UK & Ireland have extended their partnership through a new portal to significantly increase fleet connectivity and deliver more actionable insights to customers.

The expansion supports Sunbelt Rentals’ five-year growth strategy, Sunbelt 4.0, to create a unified and insight-driven digital experience for their customers alongside its digital transformation program.

Launching in November 2025, Sunbelt Rentals is introducing a new customer portal built on the Trackunit IrisX platform, connecting their assets into one easy to use system. This AI-driven portal brings insights to customers’ fingertips, said Trackunit, enabling them to improve efficiency, reduce downtime and make data-driven decisions that increase productivity.

Powered by Trackunit’s customizable platform and ecosystem, this will provide actionable insights as soon as they enter the portal. A landing page with insights clearly shown with drill-down elements will allow customers to focus on what’s important to them and their business goals.

One of the advantages is that connected asset data is pulled through a Fleet API providing the information into their own systems, giving them quick access where they need it.

Advanced insights 

“The expansion of our partnership with Trackunit will allow us to provide our customers with more insights from the equipment they hire from us, enabling them to make more informed decisions about their hiring and operational practices. AI-driven insights will allow to predict maintenance needs, minimize downtime and increase on-site efficiency,” said Matthew Ross, Director of Asset Connectivity at Sunbelt UK & Ireland.

“We’re also able to provide accurate data on carbon emissions, supporting customers in meeting their sustainability goals. Connectivity is no longer just about tracking equipment. It is the foundation for delivering intelligent partnerships with our customers and suppliers,” he said.

Trackunit’s IrisX provides the insights, offering scalable data normalization, consistent access to platform innovation, and integration with a global ecosystem of OEMs and partners. Through this collaboration, Sunbelt Rentals will be positioned to roll out new capabilities in phases, with growth potential across multiple product types and asset in the coming months and years.

“We’re proud to deepen our collaboration with one of the UK’s leading rental providers,” said Lærke Ullerup, Chief Marketing Officer at Trackunit. “Together, we’re creating a more connected industry putting safety, sustainability and innovation at the heart of construction.”
