What is Tracemark?
Tracemark stands for human beings, everywhere. It’s the only system out there that can reveal the origin of sub-0.18 carat diamonds. When you see Tracemarked jewelry, you’re looking at pieces that are transparent, responsibly sourced, and truly aligned with the world around us. This isn’t just about jewelry—it’s about trust, sustainability, and a new way of connecting with the things we wear.
The Main Benefit of Tracemark
Tracemark is the first company worldwide to offer complete and independently certified traceability for jewelry—from its very origin right into your hands. This means every stage of a Tracemarked jewel’s supply chain meets the highest standards for sustainability and responsibility. Here’s what makes it stand out:
- Complete traceability of jewelry origins, including precious metals and stones
- Independent certification ensuring compliance with top sustainability standards
- Transparency that builds trust between brands and consumers
- Focus on sub-0.18 carat diamonds, a segment often overlooked
- Alignment with internationally recognized ethics and sustainability certifications
The Traceability Panel: A Jewel’s Story Unfolded
At the heart of Tracemark is its revolutionary digital Traceability Panel. This panel tells the unique story hidden within each jewel—from the origin of its raw materials, through the exceptional craftsmanship, all the way to its positive impact on the planet. When you scan a Tracemarked jewel, it’s like opening a window into its journey, revealing a tale of origin, artistry, and care for our shared environment.
How Traceability Information is Secured
Tracemark’s Traceability Panel brings together externally verified information collected and encrypted from every step of the supply chain. This data is combined with the jewelry brand’s unique commitments to sustainability and ethical production. Rather than relying on blockchain technology, which decentralizes ownership of information, Tracemark uses its own Transparent Tracking System (TTS) to encrypt and secure data. This approach keeps information confidential while maintaining its integrity—pretty clever, right?
The Transparent Tracking System (TTS)
Behind every Tracemarked jewel is TTS, a platform tailor-made to bring transparency and supply chain integrity to the jewelry and diamond industry. Instead of distributing data ownership, TTS encrypts information supplied by each partner along the supply chain, ensuring confidentiality and accuracy. Plus, an independent auditor accredited by the Responsible Jewelry Council inspects all traceability documentation using a highly secure one-time password. This guarantees that every material and process has a known origin and meets the world’s leading ethics and sustainability standards.
