On-food traceability technology for produce
In the food industry, verifying the origin of produce and liquid foods is critical for ensuring food safety and quality. Traditional identification methods involve labels that are prone to tampering and errors, creating challenges in maintaining a secure supply chain.
Enhances transparency with edible Dna barcodes
The SafeTraces miniDART™ from JBT is an innovative traceability solution for produce, liquid foods, and bulk goods. This system employs DNA-based barcodes that are edible, invisible, and FDA-affirmed as GRAS (Generally Recognized as Safe), ensuring no impact on taste or product integrity. These barcodes can be applied directly to products during regular processing, linking the physical product to its digital record. The miniDART™ solution not only enables quick verification of product provenance and authenticity but also integrates seamlessly with existing operational setups and equipment. By supporting a nearly infinite number of barcodes, the system can track all product lines, dates, lots, facilities, and routes. Integration with SafeTraces software and blockchain technology further enhances the transparency and security of the supply chain.
