smartCodes for Clothing and Apparel

What problem does Pentalym solve?

Pentalym allows you to create a mirror of the real world functionality of any physical object (uniforms, workwear and apparel, laundry, linen ) inexpensively and in scale. Allocating a unique identifier (smartCode) for every physical item, provides a platform that captures all the relevant information on that individual item during its useful life. This information is live, stored in a secure cloud environment that can be easily accessed (smartphone) by relevant people at any point in time to maximize efficiencies and efficacy through all aspects of the supply chain.

What tangible benefits does Pentalym deliver?

Creating a digital replica of any physical item which enables fabrics, linens, uniforms, workwear, medical apparel pieces to be virtually created first to minimize waste in the supply chain.
Enables automated systems to track large numbers of individual items faster and more accurately (reduce management labor costs)
Provides users with live data to have full visibility around the supply chain. Creates real time visibility over your linen inventory at customers sites, enabling users to identify weaknesses and areas for improvement in the supply chain.

Provides traceability and transparency around all aspects of supply chain resulting in:
- Capability to do a product Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) to monitor linen usage and lifecycle durability
- Reducing environmental impact
- Removing waste and inefficient processes (Increase linen rotations to reduce overall inventory)
- Hold’s vendors accountable (adherence to standards), control the quality of your suppliers.
Creates an audit record for individual physical items, enabling automated demand forecasting and supply chain optimization. Ensure you have sufficient stock to meet your daily demands.
Monitor the quality of your uniforms & clothing and keep your customers happy.
