Anvil Knitwear has launched an interactive website that chronicles the journey and environmental impact of a t-shirt, from cotton-seed to consumer.
The TrackMyT.com site specifically tracks t-shirts for youth ages two to 12. It allows users to explore cotton farms, a gin and spinners and Anvil’s textile mill, cut and sew plants, and distribution facility. To access this information, they input a unique tracking number printed on their shirt.
Designed for kids and adults, the site features surprise pop-up messages and graphics and lesson plans for teachers that focus on the environmental, historical and social aspects of manufacturing, buying and owning a t-shirt.
TrackMyT.com is a response to the recent U.S. Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act, which this year required manufacturers of children’s products to provide labels allowing consumers to trace the product’s history.
