What we do

Minespider is a blockchain-based traceability platform, helping actors in the raw material supply chain capture and share their sustainability data in digital Product Passports that distinguish their products in the market.

Companies can upload important data such as carbon emissions or responsibility audits to the blockchain, and then link it to their products with a QR code. This helps buyers to know where their raw materials come from and under what conditions they have been produced.
