Hod Hasharon (Israel), 14 September 2026 – Singapore Exchange Mainboard and Tel Aviv Exchange listed Sarine Technologies Ltd (“Sarine” and along with its subsidiaries “the Group”) (U77:SI; SARN.TA), a worldwide leader in the development, marketing and sale of precision technology solutions for the evaluation, planning, processing, measurement, grading and trading of diamonds and gems, today announced the opening of a new GCAL by Sarine Jewelry Certification and Quality Assurance Lab in SEEPZ, Mumbai in India, further expanding the Group’s presence and capabilities in one of the world’s most important jewelry markets.

SEEPZ (Santacruz Electronics Export Processing Zone) is one of India’s leading export-oriented gems and jewellery manufacturing hubs. Establishing a presence within SEEPZ brings GCAL’s grading services closer to a significant concentration of jewellery manufacturers and exporters, providing customers with greater accessibility and more efficient logistics.

The new Mumbai facility complements GCAL by Sarine’s existing grading laboratories in Surat and New York. In India, the two locations provide complementary capabilities, with Surat positioned at the heart of the diamond manufacturing ecosystem and the new SEEPZ facility serving the jewelry manufacturing and export sector. Together with GCAL by Sarine’s New York presence, this infrastructure enables the Group to provide an efficient certification service connecting key manufacturing centers in India with the important U.S. jewelry market. GCAL by Sarine grading and certification services are backed by GCAL’s distinctive consumer guarantee, reinforcing the Group’s commitment to grading integrity, consistency and consumer confidence.

Angelo Palmieri, President of GCAL, stated: “The opening of our SEEPZ lab expands GCAL by Sarine’s capabilities in India into jewelry certification and brings our services closer to manufacturers and exporters. For our retail, wholesale and manufacturing customers, proximity and logistical efficiency are increasingly important, and this new facility enables us to serve them more effectively.”

Sarine’s CEO, Tzafrir Engelhard, added: “Sarine Group is committed to leading the evolution of diamond and jewelry certification by combining the highest standards of grading with greater efficiency and accessibility. Our new SEEPZ lab enables us to serve customers closer to the point of jewelry production while leveraging the strength and reputation of the GCAL by Sarine brand. We are particularly pleased to have completed the establishment of the new lab ahead of this year’s peak season, allowing us to support our customers at an important time for the industry.”
