In a groundbreaking partnership, one of Sweden’s leading sustainable interior brand, Style Collection, is teaming up with the trailblazing technology platform whatt.io to fortify the protection of their digital assets and original product designs against illegal duplication and counterfeiting.
As Whatt.io continues to push the boundaries of product experience and life cycle transparency, its integration of AI technology signals a new era of interactive and detailed product understanding. Future improvements will provide users with a more personal, in-depth interaction with the products they use every day.
Today, whatt.io INC announced a significant partnership with Infinite Acoustics, a sustainable HiFi speaker brand. They will integrate all future products with a whatt.io-powered Digital Product Passport (DPP).
Reuse is an important component of a circular economy, as it helps to conserve resources, reduce waste, and minimize the environmental impact of production. Authentication technology, such as NFC tags with whatt.io, can play a crucial role in facilitating the reuse of higher quality products by providing proof of originality and ownership
When fully implemented, the digital spare parts concept can dramatically improve sustainability by extending product life cycles, reducing mass production of spare parts, and paving the way for innovative business models.
As designers, makers, and manufacturers, we need to find ways to reduce material usage, use less energy in production, transportation, and usage, and consistently seek ways to Rethink (the first R in the 7R model) our manufacturing and production of parts and components.
To truly incorporate circular design, designers need to adjust their mindset and contemplate the long-term impact of their products on the environment.
