Under the MoU, Eurofins S&L and Tailorlux will co-operate on digital fibre verification in response to the rising consciousness of brands, retailers, suppliers and consumers in identifying and tracing the sources of materials, as well as end products, with a special focus on recycled materials.
Textile and footwear buyers and suppliers can leverage Tailorlux’ system that can trace and verify the recycled content of a textile or footwear product tracked with the polymer or viscose marker fibre from Tailorlux. The online verification and machine-to-machine elements pave the way for innovative solutions for the textile and footwear industry. As the industry is keen to examine the environmental impact of the entire supply chain, being able to accurately trace the lifecycle of materials and products is essential to offer maximum clarity. The technology is also said to promote greater brand protection and product authenticity.
