What are Digital Product Passports?

DPPs create a digital twin of a physical product. They digitally record, process, and share information along the product lifecycle to deliver increased transparency and traceability, while supporting after-sale services such as repair, resale, and recycling.

The EU Strategy for Sustainable and Circular Textiles, released in March 2022, calls for DPPs to be mandatory on textiles sold in Europe by 2030. This strategy calls upon the Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR) to define DPP requirements. The ESPR is expected to be adopted in 2024, when specific DPP requirements will start to be written as Delegated Acts.
