Traceability Files That Release a Detained Textile Container
Releasing detained textile containers requires an audited dossier pairing transaction certificates with mass balance scrap calculations and IRMS origin testing.
Supply Chain Mapping
Visualization Process
Detailed records of every entity involved in the production of a garment provide a clear view of the journey from raw material to retail. Engaging in supply chain mapping requires a company to identify its direct suppliers and the subcontractors used by those suppliers for every component. This effort creates a structural map that shows where every mill and factory or farm is located around the globe.
Node Identification
Each factory and mill or laundry and farm is recorded as a specific point of origin with its own compliance history. When a brand performs supply chain mapping, it discovers the hidden links where risks such as forced labor or environmental damage might occur. This knowledge is necessary for meeting the transparency requirements of modern trade laws and ensuring that the brand promise is upheld.
Material Flow
Tracking the movement of goods between these locations ensures that the final product matches the claims made on the label. Data gathered during supply chain mapping supports the verification of organic or recycled content by showing a continuous path from the source. It also allows for faster response times if a quality issue or a regulatory problem is detected in a specific region of the world.
Compliance Transparency
Complete records prove to regulators that the company has done its due diligence in monitoring its production partners.
