ALTR's journey towards this certification marks a significant milestone, making it the first-ever SCS-007 certified producer and the second globally to achieve this recognition while operating on 100% renewable energy.

2. Ethical Stewardship

3. Net Zero Carbon Footprint

4. Sustainable Production Practices

5. Sustainability Investments

Each SCS-007 certified diamond is accompanied by a consumer certificate of sustainability, detailing the stone's journey and achievements in sustainability.

Amish Shah, founder of ALTR and J'EVAR, emphasizes the intrinsic value of sustainability within ALTR's ethos. He states, "Sustainability is not a buzzword; it's in our DNA. This certification validates our unwavering commitment to ethical practices and transparency in the lab-grown diamond industry. With the SCS-007 certification, we're not just producing diamonds; we're setting the standard for the industry."
