The rich text element allows you to create and format headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, images, and video all in one place instead of having to add and format them individually. Just double-click and easily create content.
Static and dynamic content editing
A rich text element can be used with static or dynamic content. For static content, just drop it into any page and begin editing. For dynamic content, add a rich text field to any collection and then connect a rich text element to that field in the settings panel. Voila!
How to customize formatting for each rich text
Headings, paragraphs, blockquotes, figures, images, and figure captions can all be styled after a class is added to the rich text element using the "When inside of" nested selector system.
The role of technology in the fashion sustainability transformation
In recent years the fashion industry has been under scrutiny for its social and environmental impacts. In an effort to clean up its act, innovations around fashion sustainability have germinated in all sectors, most of which can be attributed to technological improvements.
From AI, to blockchain, augmented realities, 3D scanning, and phygital experiences, the rise of technology has allowed the digitalisation of processes, with increased speed and efficiency.
This has become especially important as the pandemic exposed the shortcomings of the industry. From supply chain inefficiencies, to large volumes of unsold stock, brands had to adapt to tackle different challenges whilst shifting to digital retail.
Technology has the ability to democratise fashion at scale, increasing access, promoting sustainability, accelerating innovation and redefining the face of the industry. Scaling technologies can represent major opportunities to further fashion sustainability narrative. Digitalisation can reduce carbon footprints, wasted stock and increase efficiencies in inventory management.
At Sustainable Brand Platform we are committed in helping brands achieve true sustainability and technology is crucial for us to do so. Immersive digital experiences combined with science based data can represent a big opportunity for brands to prove they’re genuinely transparent and constantly improving.
Consumers are more vocal than ever when it comes to holding brands accountable and demanding transparency in fashion. They are becoming more savvy in spotting greenwashing and want to shop from brands that align with their values.
Brands that want to stay competitive in this changing landscape need to become consumer centric. This means putting the consumer’s wants and needs above all else, looking at customer experience, satisfaction level and listening to their desires, opinions and adapting their product offering accordingly.
To achieve consumer centricity, brands must capture consumer feedback and implement it in their business, making data driven decisions to improve consumers’ satisfaction. The key is to make consumers feel listened to and nurturing an authentic connection with them based on trust and shared values, in order to build a lasting relationship.
Increasingly consumers want brands to disclose information about the products they’re selling. According to McKinsey, 67% of consumers now pay attention to the environmental impacts of their clothing. They are aware of the impacts the fashion industry is responsible for and want to support brands that are working to reduce theirs.
Slogans and commitments are not enough, consumers want to see reliable, credible, science-based data that proves a brand’s commitment to the cause and that concrete steps in the right direction are being taken.
At Sustainable Brand Platform we marry consumer centricity with technological advancements and sustainability data to support brands in developing authentic relationships with their customers. Technology can help gather and showcase information about brands’ sustainability, helping companies reduce their impacts and consumers feel good about their purchases.
Phygital services for fashion brands
At Sustainable Brand Platform we mainly measure sustainability performances, turning operational data into sustainability KPIs, but our services also have the ability to bring brands closer to their customers through phygital experiences.
Phygital means using technology to bridge the gap between the digital world and the physical dimension, providing a unique and realistic interactive experience for the user.
Once brands measure their performances and assess their impacts all throughout the supply chain, they can identify any hotspots, set improvement targets and design better products. To communicate the findings they can use digital widgets on their website or go further with the Product ID-card, a comprehensive exhibit of their sustainability data.
For a truly immersive experience, fashion brands can obtain a QR code that takes users to the Product ID-card, a mobile first experience that allows sustainability data to become accessible in seconds, showcasing both product specific information and company wide sustainability metrics.
This is an immersive, engaging asset that brands can use to provide evidence of their commitment to sustainability and display the journey of their products for full transparency.
Through the Product ID-card, fashion companies can present a variety of data. Thanks to its easily accessible, interactive design, this tool allows users to scroll through different metrics and learn more about a company’s sustainability in just a few clicks.
For product-specific sustainability performance, fashion brands can use the Product ID-card that’s created based on Product Lifecycle Assessments (LCA) that we carry out. This ID-card, like the above-mentioned one gives brands the possibility of displaying sustainability data through a QR code that can be attached to the physical garment tag and when scanned, allows access to all the product’s information digitally.
The product impact is calculated using life cycle analysis, this is a methodology we use to assess the environmental impacts generated throughout the life cycle of a product. Different metrics can be shown, from the global warming potential, the water use, to the ecotoxicity of the product.
The product journeyis also displayed starting from the raw material, then the production sites and where packaging and logistics take place, as well as the name of the suppliers. Through this tool, fashion brands can showcase full transparency within their supply chain.
We believe this experience is a significant added value for brands that are serious about sustainability. It allows consumers to fully understand in a simple, accessible way the impact of the products they’re purchasing, guaranteeing transparency and traceability so they can make thoughtful, informed buying decisions. This can strengthen brand-consumer relationships and increase brand loyalty.
At Sustainable Brand Platform we are committed to delivering valuable sustainability assessments, supporting fashion brands all the way. With a holistic approach we help measure brands’ sustainability performances, map their supply chain, identify areas that need improvement and set goals. All these findings can then be seamlessly integrated into brands’ websites to make the data we gather accessible to customers allowing them to know exactly what they’re buying.
Technology has a huge potential to democratise information and simplify data. We are committed to helping brands track, improve and communicate their sustainability journey through a phygital experience like no other.
