SEATTLE, Jan. 4, 2023 /PRNewswire/ — There is a Company coping with the global climate crisis and declaring a bold vision and technology of carbon neutrality in the livestock sector. Melliens Inc’s Livestock Carbon Monitoring & Carbon Credit Sharing Platform enables beef producers to generate and sell carbon credits for practicing less carbon intensive agriculture than the current industry standard.

“The Cow Carbon platform reliably generates carbon credits based upon inputs. We are proud to present a technology promoting a cleaner environment and healthier earth” said Dr. Lee Hakkyo, Melliens Founder and Professor of Joenbuk National University.

To move towards a net-zero future, science-based, sustainable, and innovative action needs to be taken. Melliens is the first Climate technology company to monitor the carbon footprints of beef cattle and trade accumulated carbon credits in carbon markets.

Our home planet earth is at risk. The agricultural sector accounts for 24% of Global GHG emissions. Cattle GHG emissions are the most pressing agricultural emissions issue, at 10% in 2020, and could comprise 40% of agricultural emissions by 2050 if sector emissions are not reduced.

Carbon footprint is difficult to measure for beef products as biological variation in individual cattle, insufficient data, inaccurate data, falsifiable data, and high cost to measure, make individualized beef GHG emissions infeasible.

In order to solve this problem, Melliens has developed the cowcarbon platform. This platform service quantifies and verifies the reduced carbon emissions, thus generating carbon credits in real-time. Anyone can purchase carbon credits and profits are shared with beef suppliers.

Venture capital has responded accordingly; Salim Dada, Managing Director and CEO at Concord Ventures noted: “Melliens is building a connection between beef farmers and the tech world to share benefits by trading accumulated carbon credits in voluntary carbon markets”

Melliens encourages carbon credits buyers to join in saving the earth. Tokenizing carbon credits has an important role to induce the participation of the general public, consumers, and companies in profit-sharing with livestock farmers. It creates a tradable commodity, and a transparent market accessible to anyone. The first tokenized cowcarbon is launching soon.

Melliens is committed to continually reducing the beef carbon footprint to 50% of world average by 2030 and building a healthy beef industry ecosystem through science, open innovation, and easy access to blockchain-based rewards through its financing system

Coveted Awards Recognize the Most Innovative and Exciting Exhibitors at Important Boutique Hotel Design Event.

IRVINE, Calif., Nov. 22, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — Roland DGA’s DG DIMENSE technology was honored with an NKBA Manhattan Inspire Award for “Best Wallcoverings/Wall Treatment” at Boutique Design New York (BDNY) 2024, the leading trade fair and conference for boutique hotel design, which took place November 10-11 in New York City’s Jacob K. Javits Convention Center. Produced by the NKBA-Manhattan Chapter and sponsored by aspire design and home magazine, the Inspire awards recognize the most innovative and exciting exhibitors at this important event, with a focus on all the categories beyond kitchen and bath that inspire designers to do their best work. The winners were selected by NKBA Programs Co-chair Diana Mosher and a panel of esteemed judges based on a variety of criteria, including functional, sustainable, and aesthetic considerations.

DG DIMENSE, a Roland DG Group company, offers revolutionary digital printing technology that allows users to produce one-of-a-kind textured wallcoverings, wall art, and other interior design elements, as well as eye-catching signage, displays, packaging, and more. Centered around the advanced Dimensor S (which Roland DGA demonstrated at BDNY 2024), this patented solution combines a specialized inket printer, proprietary media, and specially formulated water-based inks to create 3D textured prints and full-color graphics in a single, seamless process. This sustainable, eco-friendly process is made possible by the unique interaction of the ink and media when heated to create a controllable raised surface. The printed images and graphics can foam up to 1.5 mm in height and 1.58 m in width, creating stunning visual and tactile effects.

“We are thrilled about receiving this prestigious award,” said Roland DGA’s Business Development and Co-Creation Manager, Kitt Jones. “DG DIMENSE represents the evolution of surface art, giving users the ability to design non-repeatable texture by controlling and manipulating the surface structure rather than laying ink, thus minimizing cost, reducing print times, and adding a new and exciting dimension to traditional printing.”
