| Kick-off of CEN Workshop launched byTRICK project |
| 05/12/2024 online Time 14.00 - 17.00 |

| Description |
| A new CEN Workshop, based on TRICK project results, to enhance traceability and sustainability data collection in textile and clothing supply chains will start with its kick-off meeting on December 5th. This initiative is one of the main outcomes of TRICK European project in terms of contribution to standardization, and aims at supporting all the actors of the supply chain in their preparation for the incoming regulations and DPP. |
| Details |
| The main objective of this CEN Workshop is to deliver a pre-standard document with the objective to establish guidelines to enable and optimize data collection along textile and clothing supply chains, improving traceability, transparency and sustainability claims, in line with European regulations and strategies. The CWA will be valuable for companies’ decision makers, IT solutions providers, experts in sustainability, as well as industry trade organizations, industry policymakers and, in general, all the stakeholders in the ecosystem around the textile and clothing supply chains (like logistic operators or auditors, waste collectors and recyclers). The participation to the event is for free but it is required to register sending an email to Fabio Rossi (UNI) at fabio.rossi@uni.com More details about the event and its related documentation can be found on CEN’s announcement. For those not familiar with CEN standardization committees, a CEN Workshop is a path to create pre-standard documents (guidelines, use cases, resources of any kind) on a specific topic, before or in addition to standardization activities. In this case ENEA, UNI and the Trick project partners are starting a process to share and publicly release both the experience and new knowledge generated by the industrial pilots performed in the project and the guidelines and data models designed and tested in the project. An added value is then the involvement and possible contributions of other projects working on some specific aspects of circularity (CISUTAC, PESCO-UP) or on the design of the Digital Product Passport (CIRCTHREAD), as well as the relationships with standardization committees and working groups such as CEN TC248/WG39 on circular economy for textiles. Finally, it should be noted that the launch of the initiative, which will last a few months, was characterized by a positive and collaborative climate that demonstrated the willingness to cooperate to solve problems and the appreciation for the "open mind" approach of the promoters. Why should industry and solution providers be interested in this "standardization expert game"? The reason is that the well known difficulties in data gathering along complex and fragmented supply chains can be tackled only with an common effort for standardisation to lower the barriers and costs of its implementation. This initiative does not start from scratch: the GS1 well known EPCIS model, the UNECE work on sustainable and transparent fashion supply chains, the eBIZ sectorial specification promoted by Euratex and Enea since 2013 (www.ebiz.enea.it and ebiz.tcf.eu) are all fondations at the basis of the current work. Follow this activity and register to participate and contribute, even just with a comment (it is free and the final result will be public heritage and available to all) A special thanks to Carla Fité Galan (UPC) and Gessica Ciaccio (ENEA) to manage this initiative together with Fabio Rossi (UNI) Download the Registration form for the Participation tpo the CWA activities (after the kick-off) from here: https://www.ebiz.enea.it/ebiz/download/CWARegistrationForm_TRICK.docx |
