Traceability for textiles, fiber to finished product

Every product has a story. We make it visible.

A system of truth for the textile chain, from the cotton field to the finished garment.

aetnis records each step as it happens: the bale, the yarn lot, the fabric roll, the garment order. It links them into one journey and turns that journey into a product story a brand can publish and a shopper can read.

From fiber to finished product

Five steps, each with its own records. aetnis keeps them in one place and keeps them connected, so a question about a garment can be answered all the way back to the gin.

Step 1FiberGrowers, gins and merchants. Bales, gin codes and HVI quality data.
Step 2YarnSpinning mills. Laydowns and yarn lots, linked to the bales that went in.
Step 3FabricKnitting, dyeing and finishing. Fabric lots and the yarn behind them.
Step 4GarmentCut and sew. Product orders, styles and the fabric each one used.
Step 5Product storyThe brand reviews the journey, sets the claim and publishes.

How aetnis works

Partners keep working the way they do today. aetnis takes their records in, links them and checks them before anything is published.

Bring files as they are: HVI exports from the gin, packing lists, spreadsheets, and the program data a brand exports from its own accounts. Data checks flag missing fields and unknown codes before they reach a product story.

Two records carry the whole chain.

A lot is material you can point to: a bale, a yarn lot, a fabric roll, a garment order. An event is what happened to it: ginned, spun, knit, dyed, sewn, shipped.

Every record carries the partner who owns it. Each partner's data stays theirs, and the chain still reads as one story.

One story, every partner

Traceability only works when each link in the chain gets something back for its effort.

BrandsClaims you can stand behind, an evidence pack for compliance teams and a product story for every style you choose to publish.
Mills and garment makersRecord each lot once and answer every customer from the same source, instead of filling a new questionnaire for each.
Merchants and ginsGin codes and HVI data you already keep become proof of origin that travels with the fiber.
ShoppersScan the tag and see where the garment came from, step by step, in plain language.

Your data leaves the way you need it

Open standards for auditors and retailers, files for the people who live in spreadsheets, and an API for the systems and agents that come next.

We don't simplify. We illuminate.
