TRACEABILITY

Traceability refers to the possibility to trace the journey and origins of products from raw material to finished product across the entire value chain. Traceability is closely interconnected with the requirement for transparency, to improve trust in the fashion industry and its social and environmental practices. Some examples of methods adopted to enable traceability include the use of RFID and blockchain technologies to track the flow of materials, components and products through the supply chain. However, while both transparency and traceability are crucial steps in improving the status quo of the industry, such efforts have little value unless they are accompanied by an active commitment to preventing any abuse of either people or the environment. In addition, improvements through effective policies, legislation, and regulations, as well as punishment and legal action against companies that are guilty of unacceptable social and environmental practices, also need to be urgently put in place.(1-5)
