Public Webinars
Digital product passports
Digital product passports (DPPs) are being introduced across the EU to improve sustainability and circularity. They capture data about the environmental impact of products, their composition and recyclability, their production, as well as supply chain information.
It is expected that footwear, apparel, furniture, bedding, textiles and floor coverings will all be required to have DPPs by 2030. Sohag and Joanna from DigiProd Pass discuss how DPPs will work, the type of information that is likely to be required and demonstrate a DPP solution.

Smart textiles
Smart technology is an exciting innovation within the textiles industry, allowing the production of materials which can respond and adapt to their environment in a variety of different ways. This has the potential to revolutionise the way that textiles are used in fashion, sportswear, protective clothing and medical devices.
In this webinar, Lucy Cove explores the potential applications of this emerging technology, as well as the regulatory challenges that it may pose.
Introducing SATRA TimeLine software
TimeLine is part of SATRA's suite of production efficiency systems, which can assist footwear manufacturers with accurately predicting time and labour costs before production starts.
