- GS1 supports textile companies by:
• Helping them prepare for European legislation such as the Green Deal, CSRD, and the Digital Product Passport (DPP).- Together with Modint, GS1 has developed a sector statement outlining the opportunities and challenges of the DPP for the textile and fashion industry.
- Through Shopping Tomorrow, we have also created a five-step plan to help companies get started with the DPP.
- Standardising the capture and exchange of product and location data using tools such as GTIN, GLN, and QR Codes powered by GS1.
- Improving inventory management through RFID.
- Supporting more sustainable supply chains by enabling greater traceability and transparency.
As companies and their supply chain partners face increasing legislation that requires extensive data sharing, the question becomes how to organise this efficiently. Our Upstream Apparel Research document explores how supply chain partners can share data effectively and work together more efficiently.
