Digital Product Passport
(DPP)

What is the Digital Product Passport?
The Digital Product Passport (DPP) is a digital record linked to each product, accessible through technologies such as QR codes, RFID, or NFC. It provides structured information throughout the product’s entire lifecycle—from raw material sourcing and manufacturing to use, repair, recycling, and end-of-life management.

Main Objectives

Circular Economy

Promotes product reuse, repair, refurbishment, and recycling.

Transparency

Provides greater visibility across the entire value chain.

Reduced Environmental Impact

Helps minimize environmental and climate impacts throughout the product lifecycle.

Compliance

Simplifies regulatory compliance, monitoring, and enforcement.

Consumer Empowerment

Enables consumers and institutional buyers to make informed purchasing decisions.

Systemic Perspective

Delivers standardized, interoperable, and globally auditable data.

What Type of Information Can It Contain?

Depending on the industry, the Digital Product Passport (DPP) may include:

Products and Industries Covered
