US-based traceability company Trace Register said Monday it is adding blockchain technology to its Full-Chain Traceability (FCT) platform.

Seafood supply chains accumulate massive amounts of data related to product requirements and compliance with sustainability and other programs. Blockchain technology can ensure data is not altered as it moves between trading partners and different traceability systems while still protecting data confidentiality.

"The Trace Register platform with blockchain makes interoperability possible to ensure data security, protect confidential data and enable the sharing of trustworthy high-quality data," the company said.
