Textile Module

This module provides vocabulary and examples for implementing Digital Product Passports for textile products under the EU Sustainable Textiles Strategy, ESPR 2024/1781, and the EU Preparatory Study on Textiles 3rd Milestone.

Status: v0.9.6 - Production Ready

Regulation Overview

EU Preparatory Study on Textiles - 3rd Milestone (December 2025)

  • Scope: Apparel, footwear, home textiles, technical textiles
  • Robustness: 0-10 composite score (spirality, dimensional change, visual inspection)
  • Recyclability: 0-10 score (elastane content, sorting factors, technical recyclability)
  • Recycled Content: Structured declarations with chain of custody
  • Environmental Footprint: PEF single score per PEFCR Apparel & Footwear
  • Substances of Concern: 4-type classification per ESPR Article 7(5)

Aligned Standards:

  • EU ESPR 2024/1781
  • EU Textile Labelling Regulation 1007/2011
  • ISO 3758:2023 (Care labelling codes)
  • ISO 6330, 16322-3, 3759, 15487 (Robustness testing)
  • PEFCR Apparel & Footwear (Environmental footprint)
  • REACH, CLP, POPs Regulations (Substances of concern)
  • ZDHC Manufacturing Restricted Substances List (MRSL)

GS1 Integration

This vocabulary follows the GS1-first principle:

Use GS1 properties where available:

  • gs1:textileMaterial with gs1:TextileMaterialDetails for basic fiber composition
  • gs1:certification with gs1:CertificationDetails for certifications
  • gs1:consumerRecyclingInstructions for recycling text
  • gs1:referencedFile for documents

Textile extensions only where GS1 lacks coverage:

  • Robustness scoring (0-10 per EU methodology)
  • Recyclability scoring (0-10 per EU methodology)
  • Structured recycled content declarations
  • PEF-based environmental footprint
  • 4-type substance of concern classification
  • Care symbols (ISO 3758 codes)
  • Durability metrics (wash cycles, pilling resistance)
  • Microplastic shedding data
  • Supply chain facility tracking

Dependencies

Core module >= 1.1.0:

  • oec:OperatorInformation - Economic operator data
  • oec:RecycledContent - Recycled content percentages
  • oec:RepairabilityInfo - Repair scores and spare parts
  • oec:FacilityInformation - Manufacturing facility data
  • oec:CircularityInfo - End-of-life handling
  • oec:DocumentReference - Supporting documents
  • oec:AccessRights - Data access control (ESPR Article 9)

EPCIS 2.0 Extension Declaration

GS1-Extensions: eutex=https://ref.openepcis.org/extensions/eu/textile/, oec=https://ref.openepcis.org/extensions/common/core/

Architecture rule: gs1:masterDataAvailableFor contains only gs1: properties. Textile-specific extensions (eutex:) go at event level. See core/docs/EPCIS_MASTERDATA_AND_EXTENSIONS.md.

Build

Generate JSON from TTL sources using the dev container:

# From openepcis-web directory
./dev.sh shell

# Inside container
cd /openepcis-dpp
pnpm install
pnpm run build

Validation
