SICPA and Commstack Launch Joint Venture for Mine-to-Market Traceability

SICPA and Commstack, a provider of digital infrastructure for commodity traceability and responsible trade, have announced a strategic joint venture to enhance transparency and accountability across the mining supply chain – starting with gold and other high- value commodities.

The partnership combines SICPA’s secure marking and authentication technologies with Commstack’s real-time, fact-based traceability and compliance digital platform, to ensure full visibility across the mine- to-market value chain.

‘Building on a programme developed by SICPA to secure gold bars, this new joint venture is a decisive move toward full traceability, reinforcing transparency, compliance, and trust across the mining industry. This supports our mission to secure the vital assets of nations, thus reinforcing their sovereignty,’ said Philippe Amon, Chairman and CEO of SICPA.

‘Partnering with SICPA allows us to scale a secure, digital-first solution that brings clarity throughout the mineral supply chain. Together, we’re enabling responsible minerals sourcing from mine to market, starting with gold,’ said Craig Meerholz, Founder of Commstack.
