What to know

Following the proposal for Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation the Digital Product Passport (DPP) will be mandatory for all product groups regulated through delegated acts of the ESPR

A Digital Product Passport (DPP) is a structured collection of product-related data with pre- defined scope and agreed data ownership and access rights conveyed through a unique identifier and that is accessible via electronic means through a data carrier. The intended scope of the DPP is information related to sustainability, circularity, value retention for re-use, remanufacturing, and recycling.

The DPP’s goals are

  1. Enhancing sustainable production
  2. Extending product lifetimes, optimizing product use, and providing new business opportunities to economic actors through circular value retention and extraction
  3. Supporting consumers in making sustainable choices
  4. Enabling the transition to the circular economy by boosting materials and energy efficiency
  5. Supporting authorities to verify compliance. (European Commission).

CIRPASS Project

ZIRI Dynamics is part of the CIRPASS EU Project.

 

This platform aims to:

Present an unambiguous cross-sectoral definition and description of the DPP

Define a cross-sectoral product data model for the DPP with demonstrated usefulness for the Circular Economy

Clarify the requirements related to product identification

Propose an open DPP data exchange protocol adapted to the needs of circular economy stakeholders and propose such a protocol based on up-to-date digital technologies

Develop use cases and roadmaps for piloting, deployment and circular business value generation of cross-sectoral DPPs

Build stakeholder consensus on key data for circularity and related open European and global vocabulary standards to be included in the DPP for the textiles value chains
