This report was written by Peak 63 on assignment by Circular Movement and Textile & Fashion 2030
in spring 2023, to support Swedish textile companies in the implementation of digital systems for
traceability and supply chain mapping, a rapidly growing field where new solutions are presented on
a weekly basis and new regulations are radically changing the game radically over the next couple of
years.
The analysis in this report is based primarily on four sources: Extensive web searches for traceabilityrelated
tools, a textile industry webinar on traceability, and interviews and email exchanges with tool
providers, industry organizations and textile companies. A small base of scientific research was
gathered as background to the report, but since the market for traceability tools is quite new and
rapidly growing, and the level of implementation in textile industry is still quite low, we have not
found extensive research sources to cite or refer to.
