TextileCycle - Seamless Identity Coding of Textile Fibers for the Value Chain and Product Life Cycle

With TextileCycle, we aim to capitalize on the automated sorting of textile waste without human-in-the-loop, by introducing a seamless identity management for textiles, based on (i) unique identifiers woven into the fabric oftextiles (fibre coding), the (ii) linking of these identifiers to digital product passport (DPP) data repositories, and (iii) making DPP data accessible throughout the whole product life cycle, especially to automate a 100% material conforming textile waste sorting process.
