Implementation of an integral traceability system in the textile sector

The textile industry is the second largest polluter and its supply chains are long and fragmented, resulting in poor traceability. To address these issues, the H2020 TRICK project has developed a traceability platform that provides traceability support and 6 different IT services for textile companies (PCO, recycling assessment, PEF, health protection service, social and ethical assessment and AI for anti-counterfeiting). In particular, this work describes the Health Protection Service (HP) of the TRICK platform, which aims to collect data on chemicals used and data related to each individual process and manufacturing stage.
