Fibre-forward traceability for sustainable textiles
BanQu helps apparel companies trace their virgin and recycled materials from source to retail, maintaining complete chain of custody to ensure ethical, climate-friendly fashion & textile manufacturing.
Challenges in the apparel & textile manufacturing industry:
Compliance risks
Companies need to ensure that the origin of their materials and ingredients are sourced sustainably and ethically in order to adhere to international regulations and support sustainable textile manufacturing.
ESG risks
To ensure compliance with ESG standards, businesses must demonstrate evidence of responsible practices in their apparel sourcing process.
Proof of quality
Brands and manufacturers struggle to verify the quality and source of their textiles – including how raw materials were grown, collected, milled, or ginned.
Aggregated source data
Spot audits and high-level shipping data are no longer enough to protect companies as they fail to detect source-level issues.
Managing informal sources
A lack of visibility into the informal sector makes it difficult for orgs to manage and improve those supply chain tiers.
Digital Product Passports
Requirements to digitally prove exactly where a garment originates and ends up without greenwashing requires the right data and tools.
