ZURICH – Textile traceability specialist Haelixa has teamed up with Rieter, a supplier of short-staple fibre spinning systems, to integrate the former’s DNA marker solution within automated spinning machinery.
Haelixa’s marker technology can be embedded within a fibre at any stage during its manufacture, providing what the Swiss company deems forensic proof that cannot be tampered with or forged.
“Traceability creates added value as it enables trust and credibility by providing reliable product information. The Haelixa technology perfectly complements Rieter’s product portfolio, and we are excited about the synergies and added value we create,” commented Michela Puddu, Haelixa’s CEO and co-founder.
