Innovation in food tracing: Unblended is a blockchain-based software platform, designed to meet the needs of agri-food chains
The blockchain is a digital chain made up of “blocks” in chronological sequence that record data using cryptography. This means that, once a data has been recorded, it cannot be modified or deleted in any way except by invalidating the entire chain.
Unblended records the production steps in an unalterable way, from the origin of the raw material to the shelf, ensuring maximum transparency and data certainty.
How it works
The Unblended platform consists of two areas: core tracking and additional tracking.
Three fundamental variables are recorded on the blockchain chain, which remain unalterable and public:
1. the quantities of product delivered (eg milk, wheat, oil)
2. the supplier (from which company the product comes)
3. the exact time and place of the transfer through geotag / time-stamp
The flows of other data can be added to the management information system, at the request of the producer:
• animal welfare
• organoleptic properties
• other additional production materials
• meteorological trends
• seasonal flows
• other components on request
The supply chain
How Unblended accompanies the processes of the supply chain.
Conferment from individual producers to collective collection, (e.g. tank) through the passage between producer and transporter.
Conferment of the Transporters to the Transformer (batch of milk, oil, wheat). The sum of the contributions determines the quantity of certified raw material charged to the Transformer.
Generazione del QRcode che il Trasformatore (es. caseificio, mulino, frantoio) inserisce nell’etichetta del prodotto finale in base alla provenienza delle materie prime.
Lettura del QRcode da tutti gli attori della filiera fino al consumatore finale, per verificare la provenienza del latte trasformato e le sue lavorazioni.
