GCN RFID THREADS® UHF DPP + Circular Platform + RFID Readers
Combine RFID THREADS® DPPs for B2B with QR Code/NFC for B2C Product ID for an efficient ‘2 for 1’ smart tech platform that separates products from consumer privacy plus enables efficient traceability at-scale. Instant unfakeable authentication, increased human and data collaboration plus support Brands to increase profits through smart circular networks.
World-first washable RFID THREADS® — a flexible, discreet, industrial-washable single thread holding a unique product ID for bulk scanning without line-of-sight and enable interconnected data-driven circularity at scale.
B2B Circular Platform — connects every actor in the textile lifecycle: brands, manufacturers, EPR providers, sorters, recyclers, regulators.
United Nations Transparency Protocol (UNTP) alignment — ensures interoperable, verifiable data across global supply chains.
RFiD THREADS® + WALK platform efficiently adds verified upstream supply chain product data to DPPs at scale ⟶ then connects to downstream Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) networks for instant authentication, resource and revenue recovery. Efficiently collects R-CYCLER's data plus increases brand's ROI (resale, rent, repair, redesign, reuse) ⟶ then diverts to bulk sorting, auto detect and divert hazardous chemicals offering certifiable recycling feedstock ⟶ enables efficient, verifiable reporting data; from circular design strategies to repairability, longevity and circularity ⟶ communicates trusted data to customers and regulators.
GCN uses United Nations Transparency Protocol (UNTP) data architecture for verifiable data traceability and global machine readable interoperability. Consolidates global Standards and certification to ensure trusted data exchange across local and global value chains.
Seamlessly connect AI, multi-language training, link SCM/POS to automate returns and deadstock data. Links logistics to scale a data driven collaborative circular economy to meet environmental and social targets, plus upcoming Regulations.
GCN assists brands and regulators with verifiable reporting data for products to travel around a fully traceable circular economy at scale efficiently unlocking and sharing profits through EPR first before recycling.
Brands connect to circular B2B business models with affordable RFID DPPs using accessible Readers. Brands then link customers to their website and third-party B2C Customer Passports via single-scan QR Code/NFCs to support consumer privacy.
Use RFID readers/sensors, IoT and robotics to link to an interconnected platform connecting products at-scale plus collaborative third-party platforms for efficient, traceable and compliant circularity, from fibre to feedstock and beyond.
Diverts resources and revenue from landfill to boost jobs and economies, supports social and worker Certifications and provides verifiable data to meet landfill, emissions and pollution mitigation targets.
Policy Alignment - GCN works to efficiently meet the EU Strategy for Sustainable Circular Textiles, Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation, EU Green Claims Directive, EU Waste Framework Directive and emerging global regulations.
The RFID THREADS® holds GS-1 Standards and enables connection across global value chains including transporters, logistics providers and software partners.
Platform and Infrastructure Links - Access via API "digital bridges" for Supply Chain Management, LCA, ESG third party platforms and IoT, robotics, AI systems, sorters, recyclers, transport, logistics, municipalities, robotics etc.

SEAMLESS INTEGRATION ACROSS INDUSTRIES
Brands and businesses can integrate existing SCM via a secure digital bridge.
Free connectivity for R-Cyclers and reverse logistics partners supports both EPR first and recycling options last.
Tap into existing transport hubs own RFID capability.
Add + collect new data at-scale. Circular by design; capture strategies and EPR systems from the get-go, verifiable supply chain and reverse logistics value chain traceability, instant un-fakeable authentication (anti-theft), EPR then recycling for efficient full compliance reporting.
SEPARATE B2C CUSTOMER ENGAGEMENT
Use single-scan tools QR/NFC for customer-facing Product ID communication.
Link to separate third-party Customer Passport Apps via QR/NFC to prioritise user data privacy, ensuring consumer data is separate from product data.
Brands promote circularity network partners for resale, rent, repair, redesign, remake before recycling.
Unambigious, verifiable data inspires trust and boosts shareable engagement.
Link B2B partnerships via RFID THREADS® to capture lost revenue and increase ROI to reinvest into circular business models.
Link third-party platforms like WALK to GCN to effectively communicate trusted storytelling data with customers.
