ESPR: The Framework for Sustainable Products in the EU
ESPR (Regulation (EU) 2024/1781) is the EU’s new framework for ecodesign of sustainable products, replacing the old directive and expanding obligations for manufacturers, importers, and retailers.
Its goal is for all products on the European market to meet high standards for durability, repairability, recyclability, energy efficiency, and digital traceability.

Obligations for Business
Tools, Implementation, and Strategic Significance
The Digital Product Passport (DPP) is a key instrument of ESPR – a standardized digital document with information about the product throughout its lifecycle. The regulation introduces DPP in phases for categories such as batteries, electronics, textiles, and furniture, requiring companies to provide data to customers, partners, and regulators. As part of the Green Deal and the circular economy, DPP promotes sustainable production and transparency. Companies that prepare early will gain a strategic advantage and greater consumer trust.

Frequently Asked Questions
The scope is very broad – practically all products on the European market. Specific rules and timelines will be determined by product category through EU delegated acts.
DPP is a “digital identity card” for the product, containing data about composition, production, repair, and recycling. For companies, this is a key tool for transparency, sustainability, and competitiveness.
The start is from February 2027 with batteries, electric vehicles, and industrial batteries over 2 kWh. Later, textiles, electronics, and construction products will follow.
The Digital Product Passport (DPP) gives companies an advantage – avoiding sanctions, building trust with customers and partners, better access to European markets, and resource optimization.
Non-compliance can lead to financial sanctions, product withdrawal from the European market, loss of supply contracts, and reputational damage.
Companies should follow the 2025–2030 work plan framework, evaluate their processes, and build systems for DPP implementation. It is best to choose a reliable partner for EU market compliance.
