French CRYOLOG invents biometric labels

TRACEO tags are used in conjunction with bar codes, based on a patented and innovative technology that uses microbiology to simulate the true metamorphic process of products to monitor the shelf life of products that have been labeled with this type of label.

In order to avoid public health hazards caused by the interruption of the frozen food chain, CRYOLOG, France, keeps the freshness of foods at its best. The TRACEO label is the world's only food preservation tracking management process: it is specifically applied to the tracking management of fresh foods sold in supermarkets and take-out foods in the catering industry; in addition, it has other wide applications such as vaccines and blood products. Track management.

TRACEO is a new generation of self-adhesive labels that integrates time and temperature parameters, and, based on the characteristics of the product to be tracked and managed, develops a special program that can monitor the product after its freeze is interrupted.

TRACEO is composed of a salt and food micro-organisms. When the freeze-chain interruption time reaches a certain limit, or when the product reaches the consumption expiration date under proper storage conditions, the color of TRACEO will change, and the originally transparent sign will become The lack of transparency means that the product cannot be eaten again. When used in combination with a bar code, once the label is discolored and becomes opaque, the bar code cannot be read, and products that cannot be eaten are automatically and systematically detected. The TRACEO tag has been activated during installation. After the customer initiates the function, the TRACEO tag can track the preservation of the preservation product from the industrial production chain through the logistics and retail distribution to the consumer's home refrigerator.

Since the invention of the TRACEO label, its superior performance has enabled CRYOLOG to receive 15 awards, including the Oscar Packaging Award in 2005, the “Innovation Award for Crossroads in Food Industry Supplier Awards”, and the Innovation Agency of France (OSEO ANVAR). ) The reward. The TRACEO label has been trusted by the scientific community and industry, and has been adopted by some large restaurants and retailers, such as ELIOR, which ranks second in the European catering industry, and 60 supermarkets in the retail industry, with an annual turnover of 10 billion.
