On February 6, 2026, the " Life Diamond Full-Process Traceability and Group Standard Launch Meeting, " initiated by GIL Gem Testing (Shenzhen) Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "GIL International Gem Laboratory"), was successfully held. Representatives from the Product Quality Traceability Professional Committee of the China Anti-Counterfeiting Industry Association (hereinafter referred to as " China Anti-Counterfeiting Industry Association Committee " ) , Beijing Zhaoxin Information Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Zhaoxin Technology") , and Henan Liumianding New Material Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as "Henan Liumianding") gathered together to launch the Life Diamond Full-Process Traceability Group Standard, promoting this innovative track that integrates technology and humanity towards a new stage of high-quality development.
a special type of lab-grown diamond that carries emotional memories and cultural energy , use a range of carbon-containing materials such as biological hair, plants, soil, fruits, and incense ash as carbon sources. These materials condense individual emotions and cultural energy into eternally brilliant diamonds . However, the authenticity of the carbon source and the manufacturing process remain core concerns for consumers and challenges that need to be addressed for the industry's standardized development. This collaboration among four parties is based on the industry's development needs and leverages their respective professional advantages to build a traceability system covering the entire lifecycle of life diamonds. This ensures that the "life journey" of each diamond is verifiable, traceable, and accountable, using technology to safeguard emotions.
The four parties collaborated to build a comprehensive traceability technology and service ecosystem. GIL International Gem Laboratory, a renowned international jewelry testing institution, provides high-quality services to the market with a service philosophy of "more technological, safer, and more efficient." In this collaboration, GIL took the lead in developing traceability standards and was responsible for the testing and identification环节 ( links/stages) in the full-process traceability and group standard for Life Diamonds. Leveraging its professional testing technology, GIL provides professional quality identification and testing services for every Life Diamond produced .
The Product Quality Traceability Committee of the China Anti-counterfeiting Industry Association is the only national-level social organization in China's anti-counterfeiting industry registered with the Ministry of Civil Affairs, under the guidance of the State Administration for Market Regulation. Adhering to the principles of "co-creation, co-construction, and co-governance," the committee is committed to standardizing the healthy development of the anti-counterfeiting industry, promoting the advancement of traceability technology, and providing support for combating counterfeiting and infringement, and ensuring the authenticity and safety of products. In this launch meeting and the development of group standards, as a leader in the anti-counterfeiting traceability industry , the committee is responsible for leading the establishment of a collaborative platform and coordinating the advancement of various tasks .
Zhaoxin Technology creates a unique anti-counterfeiting and traceability code for each Life Diamond, ensuring that the traceability information is tamper-proof and verifiable throughout the entire process . Consumers do not need professional tools; they can simply scan the QR code to clearly view the complete journey of the diamond from its carbon source to the finished product.
Henan Liumianding is primarily responsible for the entire production and manufacturing process of Life Diamonds. It conducts comprehensive and detailed process recording for key production steps such as carbon source extraction, high-temperature and high-pressure growth, cutting and polishing . All production data is synchronized to the traceability system in real time to ensure the accuracy and standardization of the Life Diamond production process and to achieve traceability and verification of the entire production process.
Zhang Yonghong, director of the Special Committee of the China Anti-counterfeiting Industry Association, pointed out that the association adheres to the principle of "serving four aspects," and the Special Committee takes it as its mission to standardize traceability processes and improve traceability efficiency. Life Diamonds carry special emotional and cultural value, and the authenticity and completeness of their traceability are crucial, concerning the core value of the product and the credibility of the industry.
Zhang Yonghong stated that the collaboration between the association, GIL, Henan Liumianding, and Zhaoxin Technology is not only to implement the national strategy of "promoting high-quality development of the digital economy," but also to protect consumer rights and convey emotional value. The four parties jointly launched a traceability system that ensures "traceable origin, traceable destination, accountability, and emotional support," giving each diamond a unique "digital ID card." From the identity verification and weight recording of samples collected from the carbon source, to each stage of cultivation and processing, and finally to testing and certification, every key step is fully documented and standardized. This also provides consumers with an intuitive verification channel, eliminating concerns about information asymmetry.
Mr. Yan Jinqiang, Deputy General Manager of Sales at Zhaoxin Technology , proposed that a traceability standard that is both forward-looking and practical should possess three core characteristics: "comprehensiveness, reliability, and usability."
"Full" means covering the entire life cycle of carbon source collection, cultivation and growth, cutting and grinding processing to finished product delivery, breaking down information barriers at each stage ;
"Trust" refers to relying on blockchain technology to store key data on the chain, creating an immutable "digital diary" for each diamond of life, and building a trust defense line with the rigidity of technology.
"Use" means to let the value of traceability reach brands and consumers directly, and to transform complex production links into intuitive and tangible trust stories through unique digital identities, thus building a universal "trust language" in the industry.
Xia Xiaodong, chief engineer of GIL , said that GIL International Gem Laboratory has always adhered to the basic policy of "technology protects emotions, standards build trust" . With the core concept of being more technological, safer and more efficient , and relying on professional technology and the cooperation of all parties , it makes every diamond a "touchable emotion and a culture that can be felt ".
one of the initiators and participants in this full-process traceability system for Life Diamonds , we firmly believe that this collaboration with the China Anti-counterfeiting Industry Association Special Committee , Zhaoxin Technology, and Henan Liumianding has not only built a full-process traceability system, but also a bridge of trust connecting technology and humanity, and businesses and consumers. In the future, GIL will continue to leverage its professional testing advantages, supported by professional identification technology, to propel this emerging industry that integrates technology and humanity towards a new stage of high-quality development.
