What is Digital Product Passport (DPP)?
Think of a Digital Product Passport like a digital ID card for a product.
DPPs are designed to unlock essential information about a product’s lifecycle – everything from the materials used to make it through to its end of life, disposal, recycling or reuse.
There’s currently a global shift in how we interact with products and a real drive for greater transparency, traceability and sustainability. The DPP plays a huge part in this story, as we transition to a circular economy that focuses on reusing, repairing and recycling materials instead of wasting them.

DPP FAQs
Below, we answer some of the most often asked questions about Digital Product Passports
Why are Digital Product Passports (DPP) important for sustainability?
DPPs help businesses and consumers make more sustainable choices by providing detailed information about a product’s materials, lifecycle, and environmental impact. Product passports champion transparency and support recycling, reuse, and responsible consumption.
How do Digital Product Passports support circular economy practices?
Circular economy practices are supported by DPPs as they track a product’s entire lifecycle, from raw materials to manufacturing, use and end-of-life processes. With this information, businesses can manage resources more effectively and promote the reuse, recycling and refurbishment of products, helping to reduce waste.
What kind of information is stored in a Digital Product Passport?
DPPs store data like the product’s origin, materials, manufacturing processes, certifications, repair instructions and recycling guidelines. They may also include details about warranties, maintenance records and compliance with environmental regulations.
How do DPPs help consumers make informed purchasing decisions?
Providing insights into a product’s environmental footprint, origin and quality standards, DPPs allow consumers to make informed decisions about what they buy, such as supporting ethical sourcing or reducing carbon emissions.
What role do DPPs play in supply chain transparency?
Product passports play a key role in supply chain transparency, offering a digital record of a product’s journey through the supply chain. This transparency helps build trust between brands and their customers.
How can Digital Product Passports help with product recalls?
DPPs make it easier to trace and identify products that need to be recalled. By having detailed information on production batches and materials, brands can act quickly and accurately to notify customers and address safety concerns.
Are Digital Product Passports required by any regulations or standards?
In some regions, particularly the European Union, DPPs are becoming increasingly important for meeting regulations related to sustainability and product traceability. For example, from 2027 DPPs will be mandatory for textiles, fashion, batteries and toys.
How can DPPs contribute to the recycling and re-use of products?
By detailing the materials and components of a product, DPPs help recycling facilities understand how to properly dismantle and sort products for recycling. This promotes better recovery of materials and reduces the environmental impact of disposal.
What industries are leading in the adoption of Digital Product Passports?
Industries like electronics, automotive, fashion and consumer goods are early adopters, driven by the need for transparency and sustainability. Sectors that deal with complex supply chains and high environmental impact are especially invested in DPP adoption.
How do DPPs interact with technologies like blockchain for data integrity?
Blockchain can provide a secure and immutable record for DPP data, ensuring that information is accurate and cannot be tampered with. This is especially useful for verifying the authenticity of information regarding product origin, materials and certifications.
