Digital Traceability Events
The UNTTP digital traceability events are all implemented as profiles of the UNTP Digital Traceability Event (DTE). An UNTTP DTE profile is no different in structure to a UNTP DTE but has specific constraints regarding the identifier schemes and industry vocabularies.
These event types are derived from the supply chain taxonomy for textiles and follow the UN Transparency Protocol (UNTP) as an extension for textiles. Each event type is defined by a JSON schema that constrains the UNTP DTE structure with textile-specific process types and vocabulary.
The table lists each UNTTP traceability event type and version as well as its UNTP version dependency.

Event Type Descriptions
Cotton Ginning Event
The Cotton Ginning Event represents the primary processing stage where raw seed cotton is transformed into cotton lint bales. This event type uses the UNTTP_COTTON_GINNING process type and is modeled as a TransformationEvent with business step processing.
Schema: unttp-cotton-ginning-dte.0.0.1.json
Spinning Event
The Spinning Event represents the transformation of fibre units (e.g., cotton bales) into yarn through carding, combing, and twisting processes. This event type uses the UNTTP_SPINNING_EVENT process type and supports blending of materials from multiple sources.
Schema: unttp-spinning.0.0.1.json
Weaving Event
The Weaving Event represents the transformation of yarn into woven fabric. This event type uses the UNTTP_WEAVING_EVENT process type and creates new fabric identifiers from yarn inputs.
Schema: unttp-weaving-dte.0.0.1.json
Knitting Event
The Knitting Event represents the transformation of yarn into knitted fabric. This event type uses the UNTTP_KNITTING_EVENT process type and creates new fabric identifiers from yarn inputs.
Schema: unttp-knitting-dte.0.0.1.json
Non-Woven Formation Event
The Non-Woven Formation Event represents the transformation of fibres into non-woven fabric through processes such as bonding, felting, or needle-punching. This event type uses the UNTTP_NON_WOVEN_FORMATION process type.
Schema: unttp-non-woven-formation-dte.0.0.1.json
Dyeing Event
The Dyeing Event represents the finishing process where fabric is dyed, altering its appearance and state. This event type uses the UNTTP_DYEING_EVENT process type and maintains traceability continuity through the finishing stage.
Schema: unttp-dyeing-dte.0.0.1.json
