What is a Digital Product Passport (DPP)?

The Digital Product Passport (DPP) is a digital "identity card" for the product that shows where and how it was produced, how sustainable it is, and how it can be recycled. Access is provided via QR code or link.

DPP contains data on composition, material origin, carbon footprint, repairability, and recyclability. For companies, this is a tool for transparency, trust, and easier access to the European market.

Purpose of DPP

The purpose of the Digital Product Passport is to ensure full traceability and transparency in the supply chain – from production to the consumer and back to recycling or reuse. It enables all participants – manufacturers, retailers, regulators, and consumers – to make informed decisions.

Implementation Timeline

DPP will be introduced in phases as mandatory across multiple product categories, including batteries, electronics, textiles, furniture, household appliances, and more. Each sector will have specific requirements defined through delegated acts by the European Commission.

What Does This Mean for Business?

For companies, this means a new level of responsibility, but also an opportunity to demonstrate commitment to sustainability, compliance, and innovation. Implementing DPP is not only a regulatory requirement but also a competitive advantage for those who act proactively.

DPP as Part of the ESPR Framework

The Digital Product Passport (DPP) is a key element of the ESPR regulation, which sets the new rules for sustainable products in the EU. Through it, every product receives a digital profile with transparent information about its composition, origin, and environmental impact. DPP connects manufacturers, distributors, and consumers in a unified system of trust and traceability, supporting the goals of the European Green Deal and the circular economy.
