Apparel compliance

Stop chasing supplier documents every time a retailer asks.

We help mid-market EU apparel brands collect, organise, and reuse supplier documentation — certificates, lab reports, declarations — so compliance requests never mean two weeks of chasing.

Currently working with first design partners. No commitment required.

The problem

A retailer asks for fiber composition, chemical declarations, and certifications for one style. The data exists — somewhere across email threads, PDF archives, PLM systems, and supplier inboxes. Someone spends a week chasing it. Then another retailer asks the same thing. It starts again.

Before and after

The same retailer request. A completely different experience.

Without Xorika
✕A retailer asks for fiber composition, REACH declaration, and certifications for Style JK-118. Your product manager opens her laptop and has no idea where any of it is.
✕She emails the Turkish dye house. Waits four days. Forwards the wrong PDF. Emails again. The lab report is from 2024 and may not cover this production run.
✕She eventually assembles something, sends it, and hopes nobody asks follow-up questions. The whole process takes nine days.
✕Three weeks later, a French retailer asks for the same style. She starts from scratch.
With Xorika
✓When JK-118 was created, the system immediately showed which evidence was missing and sent structured requests to each supplier via a simple link — no login required.
✓The Turkish dye house uploaded their REACH declaration and OEKO-TEX certificate directly against the style. The AI extracted the key fields. Someone confirmed in 30 seconds.
✓When the retailer asks, the product manager opens the SKU record, sees it is 100% complete, clicks Generate evidence pack, and sends a structured PDF in eight minutes.
✓When a French retailer asks three weeks later, it takes four minutes. The data is already there.

How it works

Four steps. One reusable record per product.

Built around the way apparel supply chains actually work — not how compliance workflows look on paper.

01

Import your styles

Upload a CSV from your PLM or create products manually. The system maps your bill of materials and identifies which suppliers need to be contacted.

02

Suppliers respond via magic link

Each supplier gets a unique URL — no login, no new account. They see exactly what is needed for which styles and upload documents directly.

03

AI extracts and structures the data

Lab reports and certificates are read automatically. Fiber percentages, chemical results, certificate numbers, and expiry dates are extracted and saved.

04

Reuse across any output

Generate retailer evidence packs, compliance reports, unsold goods disposition records, or future passport-ready exports — all from the same underlying data.

Built for

You feel this if you sell apparel into EU retail.

Designed for mid-market brands and private-label suppliers with enough SKU volume and supplier complexity to feel the pain — but not enough internal infrastructure to solve it alone.

Why now

—From 19 July 2026, large companies face a ban on destroying unsold apparel and must report what they do with it. That requires SKU-level material records.
—EU Digital Product Passport requirements for textiles are expected around 2027. The brands that start collecting evidence now will not be scrambling then.
—Retailers in Germany, the Netherlands, and France are already requiring product-level compliance documentation from suppliers — test reports, certifications, chemical declarations — as a condition for doing business.
—The Revised Waste Framework Directive is now in force. EPR schemes for textiles are being established across Member States through 2027.

Research mode

We’re in research mode.

We’re talking with mid-market apparel teams across Europe to understand how supplier documentation really works. If you manage compliance, sourcing, or quality — we’d like to learn from you.

We will respond within one business day. No sales pitch — we genuinely want to understand your workflow first.

What we keep hearing

Three patterns emerge from every conversation we have with mid-market apparel teams:

The data exists — it’s just never in one place.

Teams spend days pulling together certificates, lab reports, and declarations every time a retailer asks. The information is scattered across email threads, supplier inboxes, and PLM systems.

PLM covers the design spec. Production evidence is still manual.

What actually got produced, with which materials, certified by whom — that’s tracked through email and spreadsheets. No system connects the specification to the proof.

The July 2026 deadline is real. The data isn’t ready.

SKU-level material data is nowhere near clean enough to report dispositions under the new unsold goods rules. Teams know the deadline but don’t have the infrastructure.
