RA International is known for providing complete sustainable garment manufacturing solutions, we are trusted by some of the world’s biggest brands. This trust is well earned by being a first mover when it comes to transparency & traceability in its supply chain.
The company implemented a combination of physical and digital traceability from Retexcycle and Tailorlux. Retexcycle implemented a platform to trace the complete journey of garments being shipped to a major German brand to provide data for the digital product passport. The data integrity is being backed up by the physical tracer of Tailorlux which was introduced as a tracer fiber to become an inseparable part of the garment and make it scannable with handheld devices. The Retexcycle platform can start the traceability journey from the seeds onwards and can be combined with the tracer technology of Tailorlux. “It is an easy system with distributed scans at every stage of the supply chain to match the digital claim with the actual material,” says Pepe Costa, CEO of Retexcycle.
The project has been running for 1,5 years now and was made public during Bharat Tex 2024 by showing how garments and yarns can be scanned by handheld devices creating a digital waypoint from fiber to garment with the Retexcycle platform.
“Our participation at Bharat Tex 2024, New Delhi exemplifies our commitment to adapting innovation within the textile industry,” said RA International’s CEO. “We are proud to have provided a platform for businesses to enhance their operations, promote sustainability, and build trust with consumers.” As sustainability continues to drive consumer preferences and regulatory mandates, RA International remains dedicated to empowering businesses with the tools they need to thrive in this evolving landscape. With a steadfast commitment to innovation and excellence, RA International looks forward to shaping the future of traceability in the textile industry.
