Hovik, Norway, March 02, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) Hydro’s customers can now base buying decisions on facts. The blockchain pilot project launched in collaboration with DNV documents product claims for Hydro CIRCAL and Hydro REDUXA.
“We see that our customers and their customers request trusted information documenting the footprint from our materials and production. The aim of the pilot is to test a platform that supports manufacturers and brands to back their sustainability claims with verified data. This will allow them to trace the metal from the factory gates until it reaches the customer,” says Bjørn Kjetil Mauritzen, Head of Sustainability in Hydro.
