Sarine Technologies Ltd’s wholly owned subsidiary Sarine North America Inc., announced the launch of a service centre for Sarine LoupeTM diamond imaging at its offices on 47th Street in New York's Diamond District on November 19th.

The press note stated that: “The service centre provides a comprehensive imaging solution for the diamond trade, based on Sarine's patented groundbreaking technology.”  The company added that while wholesalers can have their polished diamonds scanned at the centre, links to the scanned images can be simultaneously sent by them to all potential customers anywhere in the world, thus “enabling more informed, transparent, quicker and less expensive dealing”.

With the Sarine Loupe™, it is possible to achieve multiple levels of imaging, including, the company enumerates:

1. Real ViewTM – clear, realistic impression of the diamond’s appearance,   revealing its beauty;

2. Top InspectionTM – full and accurate inspection of the diamond from the table view, while being rotated and tilted; and

3. 3D InspectionTM – full 3D inspection of the minutest details of the diamond's workmanship and internal features, including optional magnification up to microscopic levels.

This is made possible by “Sarine's unique and patented solution is based on thousands of images seamlessly combined to provide an unmatched wealth of online information as well as an outstanding viewing experience”, the company explained. Moreover, the various levels of imagery are customisable, allowing effortless integration into customers’ websites and prevalent industry platforms, with no limitations.

"Sarine Loupe™ is an exciting new technology that can and most likely will help manufacturers and wholesalers reduce operational costs, while increasing transparency and allowing for smoother diamond sales downstream,” commented Ronnie Vanderlinden, President of the Diamond Manufacturers & Importers Association of America (DMIA).
