What’s new in Pasera, newest first.

June 2026

v0.16 — Deeper, richer passports

  • Circularity scores — every passport now shows a repairability and recyclability score out of 100, plus overall recycled content, so shoppers and auditors can see at a glance how long a product lasts and how easily it can be recycled.
  • Recycled content — record how much of each material is recycled; it’s badged on the passport and rolled into an overall figure.
  • Components & trims — list zippers, buttons, labels and lining with their weight and whether they’re removable. The passport shows a clear bill of materials with total weight.
  • Supply-chain timeline — passports trace the journey from sourcing through cutting, manufacturing, quality control, shipping and publish. Factories can add cutting and QC dates when they finish production.
  • Chemical compliance — declare REACH, restricted-substance, heavy-metal and azo-dye status, and attach the safety data sheet or lab report. Shoppers see clear status badges and can download the document.
  • Faster factory data — factories can pre-fill components and chemical declarations on their own catalog, and it copies straight into the brand’s product when an order is accepted.
  • Tidier inbox — opening a request clears its “new” badge, while the task stays in your list until you submit.

v0.10 — Passports you can trust

  • Cryptographically signed passports — every published passport is digitally signed, so anyone can verify it’s genuine and hasn’t been tampered with. Consumer pages show a “signed” badge.
  • One-click verification — confirm any passport is authentic straight from its public page.
  • Earned certificate badges — a “verified” certificate is backed by a real attestation, never just a claim.
  • GS1 barcodes — add your GS1 GTIN and your passport resolves as a standards-compliant GS1 Digital Link.
  • Agent workspaces — sourcing agents get a dedicated view across all the brands and suppliers they manage.

v0.8.3 — Certificates & customs

  • See your suppliers’ — and their suppliers’ — certificates right on the batch.
  • Generate a customs/freight QR code that bundles all the batch’s documents.
  • Attach bills of lading, packing lists and customs declarations to shipments.

v0.8.2 — Full detail everywhere

  • Click any row in the factory portal to open full batch, shipment, product and supplier detail pages.

v0.8.1 — Suppliers not yet on Pasera

  • Add suppliers manually — no invite required — and manage their products and materials on their behalf. When they later join, everything hands over automatically.

v0.8 — Factory catalog

  • Factories register the fabrics, yarns and dyes they produce once, and reuse them across every brand.
  • Brands link their product specs to a factory’s real materials for a fully traceable chain.
  • Accept or decline a production request before filling it in.
  • Repeat orders pre-fill from the previous batch.
