How GCN Works
How GCN Works
The Global Circular Network links upstream to downstream to continuous circular data and collects Circular Rewards
GCN offers affordable RFID tools with downloadable App to link global circularity for clothing, footwear, homewares, mattresses, furniture, etc and help develop agile circular pathways according to verifiable metrics.
See the Regulations and Standards the GCN has built towards.
Step 1. Brands or their authorised Product Manufacturers (or Circular Data Centres), add the RFID DPPs with traceable upstream data and verifiable evidence - efficiently ticking off regulatory requirements per-item - at-scale. Use our RFIDs from factory to shipment to sale (and returns). Switch DPP off at Point-of-Sale - it only works for B2B via authorised readers. Use single-scan QR Codes to share the PRODUCT ID.

Design for, and profit from, products of longevity. Issue secure item-level DPPs efficiently at scale + QR Product IDs. Bulk add verifiable, UNTP interoperable data to get ahead of Regulations and turn circularity into measurable ROI through Circular Rewards plus collect downstream reporting data to share trusted Circular Metrics and Circular Stories.
Step 2. Open-source - Free access for Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) - authenticate - resell, rent, repair, redesign, reuse. Brands link with downstream partners to collect trusted reporting data plus revenue. Whoever holds the product, with a connected RFID reader in hand, can unlock the GCN DPP's data for free to participate in collaborative circular pathways and share Circular Rewards — scan in bulk or single-items, to access + process product data at scale.
