Traceability provider FibreTrace and testing group SGS have teamed up to develop a 'fibre integrity protocol', which will combine testing, verification, chain of custody checking and product markers. 

SGS will work with textile and footwear supply chain operators to verify data, conduct audits and ensure the traceability claims for materials are accurate.

SGS will support suppliers to demonstrate compliance within the FibreTrace digital platform, review the traceability of fibres and materials prior to the application of FibreTrace physical technology (for example at recycled polyester collection points), and help brands and retailers to carry out on-site scanning and verification.
