CleanChain brings this information together in one platform, giving sustainability and compliance teams greater visibility across their textile supply chain.

Effective chemical management in apparel brands helps create a more consistent approach to tracking chemical use, managing compliance and reducing risk across complex supplier networks.

Centralise supplier chemical data, monitor chemical inventories and documentation, assess ZDHC MRSL conformance, and identify potential compliance gaps before they become larger risks.

With more reliable supply-chain data, apparel brands can strengthen supplier collaboration, improve sustainability reporting and build the data foundation required for evolving global regulations.

Prepare Your Apparel Brand for Digital Product Passports

Under the Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR), Digital Product Passport requirements for apparel brands will require structured, verifiable sustainability data for the textile industry. For companies managing complex global supply chains, this represents a decisive change, moving chemical information out of siloed spreadsheets and into accessible, auditable digital systems. Chemical data is moving out of filing cabinets and into regulated digital infrastructure, and for many organisations, that is where the pressure begins. CleanChain makes this transition seamless, ensuring your chemical data is compliant, auditable, and ready for the digital era.
