According to Kuraray, this decentralized traceability solution means that everyone involved in a project can verify the authenticity, origin, and traceability of the laminate. This gives suppliers confidence in the materials they use, while also enabling them to demonstrate to their processors, customers, and builders that their processes comply with industry-recognized smart and safe construction practices.
CertiPly will create and assign a unique blockchain token to each batch of SentryGlas, which will then accompany the batch in real time through all elements of the value chain—from Kuraray to the laminator, architect, contractor, installer, and builder.
Alberto Alarcon, Global Marketing Communications Leader at AIS, explains: "With blockchain tokens exchanged in real time between stakeholders, CertiPly will shape the future of laminated glass by providing transparency, efficiency, and trust at every step of the manufacturing and construction process. It gives everyone involved the assurance that they are dealing with a global supplier and genuine products that deliver the stated class-leading functional and aesthetic properties."
