Smartex Loop: A New Traceability Tool for Fabric Rolls

Smartex introduces a new traceability tool for fabric rolls at ITMA 2023: the Smartex Loop. This solution eliminates manual data collection and communication. The Portuguese company continues to lead innovation for the textile sector.

Based on the success of Smartex Core – an AI-powered, automated quality control product – Smartex Loop allows suppliers to use fabric roll-level data collection and transform supply chain communication.

With Smartex Loop, users can easily scan the Loop Passport of any fabric roll – or view all their rolls on the Smartex platform via computer or mobile phone – and instantly access a lot of information about the fabric production history and quality of that fabric roll.

The tool empowers textile manufacturers with the ability to increase product value, productivity, quality, and transparency, and stay ahead of the industry’s changing scenario, as it enables the detection of issues in the fabric roll, pinpointing the exact machine, worker, or supplier. In this way, it provides undeniable proof of product quality through a digital roller map in case of supply chain disputes, which avoids lawsuits.

The Smartex Loop also enables waste reduction, tracking of stock and tier 2 production sites, enabling fashion brands to meet the increasing expectations of legislation, investors, and consumers for better supply chain data.

Smartex’s mission is to provide state-of-the-art tools to modernize the textile industry at ITMA 2023 in Milan between June 8th and 14th to present the Smartex Loop, and several updates for its production partners.
