EquipWatch standalone AJAX enabled web application

More than 30 years ago, ShockWatch turned a simple idea into a global resource. The company’s very first proprietary indicators were used to detect mishandling of sensitive computer media in transit. We found this simple concept so effective that additional technology was developed for many other applications. Soon, ShockWatch introduced the marketplace to a whole new class of products: Damage Prevention.
