More security for Golisan products with iVault
“Protect what’s yours.” is the motto of ivault.
In this blog article, we explain how Golisan and ivault work together and what it will bring to every single buyer of our products –no matter whether you have been using our herbal extracts for a long time or are still looking for convincing reasons to try them out.
In the past few weeks, ivault has built a custom Blockchain solution to protect our supply chain. With the help of the ivault app developed by the pioneer company, absolutely anyone can now easily check whether a purchased product, such as Golisan saffron extract, is an original or a perhaps even health-endangering counterfeit product.
1. What is ivault?
On their website you can read the following:
“ivault is solving the world’s security challenges with state-of-the-art fraud protection powered by a ground-breaking technology: The Blockchain. We built an easy to use platform for registering and identifying assets of any kind, with the highest level of cybersecurity possible.
We help businesses secure their supply chain and protect their products from counterfeit and plagiarism. In addition, companies can also track and manage their complete product life cycles easily through our application.”
2. Why do we use ivault?
In a nutshell, ivault takes supply chain management to an unprecedented level of security, making our herbal extracts 100% counterfeit-proof.
In the last blog post we informed about 3 facts and the 3 labels printed on the packaging, which account for the quality of Golisan herbal extract drops. Unfortunately, it is especially the valuable saffron – but also the real Ceylon cinnamon – that is one of the most susceptible to forgery. We cannot (yet) change this situation.
On the other side, saffron is certainly one of the most powerful plants on this planet. You should therefore not have to do without high-quality saffron products such as our Golisan saffron extract.
The safety of our products is very important to us – safety, as offered by the ivault Blockchain, when it comes to protecting the supply chain of companies with an innovative anti-counterfeiting solution using Blockchain technology. Thanks to this technology not only Golisan saffron extract drops, but also all other extract drops in our product range are absolutely counterfeit-proof.
The reason why we want to use ivault becomes even clearer, when we consider that, in the worst case, counterfeit products such as fake medication can have fatal consequences. The regulations concerning the production and testing of nutritional or dietary supplements as well as herbal extracts are, however, considerably lower than the corresponding regulations in the medical sector. This makes the herbs and spices market particularly attractive to counterfeiters, as they are much more likely to get away with their stings than in the more strictly controlled pharmaceutical sector.
However, ivault now makes it possible – for both the pharmaceutical industry as well as the food industry – to detect counterfeits and illegal activities in the shortest possible time and take action against them before they cause major damage.
We use ivault to guarantee even greater security for our products.
3. How does ivault work for you?
iVault itself has already revealed many details about the functionality of the blockchain and web application ivault.app:
- We started :Golisan protects their products with ivault
- And this is how it will look like soon: Martin Beyer about the ivault app and Golisan – Zurich Part II
Step by step, the way you will benefit from it looks like this:
- The product is manufactured: The manufacturing process has several steps. For example, one of the important components of Golisan extract drops is a special Swiss mineral water that is added to our well-known vials. It is important that with each of these steps, such as adding the water, all relevant data is stored in the blockchain – by us and our partner companies involved in the production process. Once information is entered, it can no longer be manipulated because it is stored on a decentralized server. Counterfeiters obviously have a hard time in infiltrating counterfeit products into the supply chain. It would immediately attract attention.
- You would like to buy our product Golisan saffron extract, but you have just heard about another saffron scandal in which counterfeit products were sold without even the producer knowing. You can order the Golisan saffron drops worry-free and without hesitation. You can then download the iVault app application free of charge or register via the ivault.app web application very easily.
- Meanwhile, at the end of the manufacturing process, a QR code is printed on the packaging before it leaves our premises and is sent to Amazon. This QR code is of utmost importance for you when using the online application ivault.app.
- An Amazon pack of our Golisan saffron extract arrives at your door. On the package you will find the QR code, which you can scan immediately with the iVault app on your smartphone. The app tells you first and foremost whether it is an original product or whether it could be a counterfeit. In the first case, after scanning you will see the information “Product is genuine” as displayed in the screenshot below.
- After this relief, all data concerning your product can be viewed: What exactly are the ingredients and where do they come from? Since Golisan products, unlike medicines, have no side effects (unless you are allergic), we do not include a leaflet with the packs. However, you can still find out everything you want to know about them in the iVault app. In addition, it is conceivable that we will be offering many more interesting articles and information about the app in the future, such as the example above with information on how to easily identify saffron counterfeits.
