Revolutionize your sustainability efforts with

the Transformers Transparency Tool (TTT)

The first tool of its kind built on accurate data, providing a comprehensive and transparent view of a product's environmental impact

Environmental Impact Data

Gain Insights on Energy Usage

Monitor Water Usage

Track Greenhouse Gas Emissions

 Science-Based Calculations

The Transparency Tool uses a robust verification system and science-based calculations to ensure accurate results

BENEFITS FOR SUPPLIERS

  • Increased visibility for products and practices – connect with potential buyers.

  • Share valuable certification, compliance, and equipment info to customers.

  • Make informed sustainability decisions with verifiable data and meet legislative requirements using a globally available platform that can be used by any manufacturer or brand.

BENEFITS FOR bRANDS

    • Build your company profile

    • Add your product SKU

    • Build its provenance

    • Have your suppliers build their supply chains

    • Garment Factory is engaged to build their process' including laundry process'

    • Fabric Suppliers are engaged to build their mills process'

    • Fiber suppliers identified and engaged

    • Logistics from place A - B - C included

    • Once all suppliers have input information, TTT will calculate the actual impact of your products

    • Accurate data can be mathematically calculated using precise algorithms and models.

    • Accurate data can be approved by comparing results to known standards or by validating results with independent testing.

    • Accurate data can be verified by an independent third party to ensure its accuracy and reliability.

HOW IT WORKS

Access TTT

Q&A

  • TTT as a concept is an idea of Transformers Foundation, technically developed by Natific.

  • There are three sources of data for TTT to perform the calculations of the different inputs/outputs. a) self-assessment by mill with information about own equipment used b) Information from Transformers Foundation (e.g. data about fibre production) c) expert database info (e.g. energy mix by country).

  • TTT is meant only for Denim products. The basic functional principle could be used for other apparel segments and even other industries but TTT’s main focus is denim.

  • Transformers Foundation detected the need for a system to harmonize the different calculations (required inputs) while confirming their validity for generated outputs to produce Denim articles (calculated either per garment or Kg, linear metres).

  • TTT has been in development for the past 3 years, but it wasn’t until we contacted Natific that the project gained speed.

    Natific was selected as partner in the project for their technical knowledge of textile processes, understanding of brand requirements based on experience, and capacity in developing expert programs for calculation of inputs and outputs of textile application processes.

    We had the first mock-ups of the tool ready about 1 year ago and have been working together since (with technical confirmation by mills and laundries) in the current version.

  • We blend self-assessed data from the mill, industry expert knowledge, and information from databases like Eco Invent. This is processed via algorithms to yield sustainability outputs.


    For example, CO2 eq emissions calculations consider the starting temperature, the volume of bath or process water, and the intended target temperature to measure as well as the time that this target temperature is to be maintained, to find out heating energy requirements (Jules, calories). This value is then converted into CO2 eq units.

    The system also factors in location-specific energy mix and local water temperatures. Other direct outputs, such as waste, are derived from self-assessed user data.
