circularity.ID

The open data standard is explicitly presented as enabling circular practices (longevity, sorting, recycling and take-back) for the fashion value chain. [Source: circularity.id]

Provides an open data standard, guidelines and platform services for brands and supply-chain partners rather than operating a consumer-facing resale marketplace; functions as a toolset and service provider for others' circular activities.

Described on the homepage as an 'Open Data Standard' for the fashion industry; this is a data standard initiative rather than a marketplace or retailer. [Source: circularity.id]

Primary strategies: reuse (R3) and recycle (R8) are explicit goals (product longevity, recommerce and recycling). Secondary inferred support for repair (R4) and refurbish (R5) from product-site guidance and partner network descriptions. Inference based on site content.

circularity.ID supports resale/recommerce and take-back workflows by enabling product identification, product sites and sorting instructions used by recommerce and take-back partners. Chosen as primary business-model fits based on site descriptions of outcomes (recommerce, sorting, take-back).

circular.fashion presents commercial services, clients and pilot projects; company appears to operate as a commercial agency (likely GmbH) but legal form not explicitly shown on circularity.id homepage.

Website describes circularity.ID as an Open Data Standard intended for use in the fashion industry (circularity.id; circular.fashion). [Source: circularity.id]

Website states involvement 'across the globe' and lists international partners and pilots, but does not enumerate a global office network. Evidence from circularity.id and circular.fashion pages.

circularity.ID is a data standard and software/service offering; no specialised hardware is supplied or required by the standard itself (site describes product IDs and digital product sites, not hardware).
