Why is RFID considered the underlying infrastructure for textile DPP?

24 Hour Callout

In the textile industry’s pursuit of full-link transparency “from fiber to circularity,” RFID (Radio Frequency Identification) technology has become the recognized underlying infrastructure due to its contactless reading, high throughput, and uniqueness.

Physical Uniqueness: The Cornerstone of Digital Twins

Each RFID tag has a globally unique hardware code, providing each garment with tamper-proof identity information. Embedding RFID clothing tags at the source of production means that the product is linked to the cloud-based DPP database from the moment it enters the global supply chain.

Compared to QR codes, UHF RFID tags support batch reading of hundreds of tags per second. According to IDTechEx data, RFID can increase inventory accuracy from an average of 65% to over 99%, providing a precise foundation for real-time updates of dynamic DPP data.

In terms of durability, RFID laundry tags can withstand more than 200 industrial washing cycles. This means that DPP exists not only during the sales phase but also extends to the post-consumer recycling stage.

Driving Force of the Circular Economy: Automated Recycling

The international market has strict targets for textile recycling rates. DPP records fiber composition, chemical residues, and disassembly guidelines. When old clothes enter the sorting center, the RFID tracking system can instantly identify the material composition.

“RFID-based automated sorting technology can increase the recycling rate of textile raw materials by approximately 15%, which is key to achieving a closed-loop circular economy.” — Ellen MacArthur Foundation 2025 Annual Report
