TRACE has undertaken activities in several commodities. Some of them have been illustrated through video:

The TRACE traceability system was deployed in the Agua de Insalus mineral water company for a period of 3 months from January 2007. A 1 day conference entitled “Calidad e Innovación al Servicio de la Excelencia” (“Quality and innovation for excellence”) was held on 27th November 2008 at AZTI-Tecnalia, Derio (Bizkaia), Spain. The participation of Insalus in the project was explained and the results achieved were shown, together with the video summarising the traceability system developed in the mineral water food chain.

Beer is an example of a processed cereal product that is consumed widely across the EU and the wider world. Brand identity is a key attribute of beers and often arises from longstanding brewing practices associated with a region, town or even religious order. One such example of the latter is the Trappist beer produced in Belgium and The Netherlands. Trappist and non-Trappist beers have been used by the TRACE project to develop original models enabling one to distinguish the origin of beer products, Rochefort. The video here below gives an overview of the process of the beer production chain and illustrates outcomes of the beer study
