Since 2005 Trace Register has provided trustworthy seafood traceability solutions. TR5 is a next-generation event-based full-chain traceability system specifically designed for the seafood industry. It enables fishers, fish farmers, seafood importers, processors, and retailers to provide the complete product story.
Traditional traceability systems are based on key data elements (KDEs), which worked when only a handful of KDEs was required. Today, many companies manage hundreds of KDEs per product. Event-based full-chain seafood traceability is much different. It captures a product’s history as a series of critical tracking events (CTEs.) Each CTE captures the Who, What, When, Where, and Why. By grouping event-based collections of KDEs, a contextual dimension results that is not possible with traditional traceability.

TR5 revolutionizes seafood traceability document management with Document Linking
TR5 links certificates to master data and attachments to events. It allows for easy validation of certificates with the associated master data and CTEs with their supporting documents.

TR5 will enable GS1 Digital Link
These new standards will enable the traceability internet. A single bar code will connect customers and consumers to all the information about a product they want and need.

TR5 can register CTEs on blockchain
Doing so addresses the challenge of knowing whether the data was modified in the middle of the chain. The result is product transparency with proprietary privacy.
