Sympatex has partnered with DMIx by ColorDigital GmbH to enhance its workflows and supply chain through digitalization. DMIx’s platform enables virtual collection development, allowing parties to share designs digitally in real-time and reduce the number of physical material samples produced and transported, thus minimizing waste, CO2 emissions, water usage and chemicals needed for dyeing.
By leveraging DMIx’s collaborative solution, Sympatex aims to reduce its environmental impact and improve operational efficiencies in its product creation process.
In addition, DMIx’s scientific color management, and its Digital Twin technology, human avatars and real-time master data solutions are able to connect to major design and product lifecycle management systems, providing a single source of truth for color, size and appearance, and thus reducing the number of samples and prototypes used.
Sympatex aims to provide parallel True Cost calculations for every product, automatically shown on delivery bills and invoices, in summer 2023, along with the DMIx tools; providing a more transparent and responsible business management approach in an optimized partnership-based value chain.
