Chinti & Parker and Fabacus Launch Digital Product Passport Pilot
Chinti & Parker, the British luxury knitwear brand, announces the launch of its first collection featuring Digital Product Passports (DPP).
The DPP initiative, facilitated by leading technology provider, Fabacus, allows customers to access detailed information about the materials used, the production process, and the environmental characteristics of each garment. This also allows Chinti & Parker to play an active role and further integrate into the process of their products by authenticating the information being published to the consumers. By scanning a QR code on the product label, customers can gain insights into the sustainability credentials of their purchase, empowering them to make conscious decisions that align with their values. To elevate the experience, customers can also sign up to receive exclusive gifts, including cashmere care sets and discount codes.
The first product range from Chinti & Parker to feature the DPP technology will be an exclusive Peanuts™ capsule collection. The SS24 Peanuts collaboration not only showcases Chinti & Parker’s playful signature style but also embodies their dedication to environmental responsibility. Featuring designs infused with the charm of Snoopy and the Peanuts gang. Set to debut on Earth Day, April 22nd, this innovative initiative marks a significant milestone in Chinti & Parker’s commitment to transparent shopping practices. Providing customers with unprecedented insight into the product’s journey, with Fabacus tracking approximately 100 data points from creation to consumption, or as co-founder and CEO Rachael Wood likes to refer to as ‘from Goat to Garment’.
As the fashion industry continues to evolve, Chinti & Parker remains committed to leading the way with innovative solutions that prioritise the planet and its people. By embracing a sustainable mindset and transparent shopping practices, the brand invites customers to join on their journey towards a more sustainable future.
The partnership between Chinti & Parker and Peanuts was brokered by WildBrain CPLG.

“Our collaboration with forward-thinking brands like Chinti & Parker exemplifies our commitment at Fabacus to redefine the future of fashion and retail, with sustainability at the heart, using our technology to craft new, engaging, and innovative channels for consumer interaction.

We’re incredibly excited to see this collection come to life.”
