The Digital Product Passport – ready with greenable
Easily and automatically provide sustainable product data in a future-proof manner
With our DPP software, you can create and manage all the relevant product information you need.
The Digital Product Passport centrally and automatically across departments
The DPP is setting the standard for supply chain transparency.
Manufacturing companies are under pressure from EU regulatory requirements, increasing demands from business partners and growing customer expectations to provide comprehensive product data in a structured manner.
Sustainability data for each component
- Structured collection of product-related data (e.g. PCF)
- Mandatory from 2027
- Almost all physical products in over 31 categories
Transparency in the supply chain
- Providing information about a product throughout the entire supply chain
- Consistent traceability of key data
- Identify and analyse hotspots
Enabling the circular economy
- Extend product life through sustainable product design
- Making products reusable and repairable
- Providing detailed information on the recycling and reuse of materials
What is often missing:
A central platform in the form of DPP software that automatically collects, manages, and makes this complex sustainability data available—both internally and externally.
For the Digital Product Passport, there is no single source of truth
- Standardisation: Different industries and products require standardised formats for collecting and providing data.
- Interoperability: The integration and networking of different IT systems and platforms along global supply chains.
- Data quality and consistency: The reliability of information depends on its accuracy and timeliness.
Lack of data availability throughout the supply chain
- The complexity of modern products: Tracking products with many components and suppliers is extremely resource-intensive.
- Availability of historical data: Often, the necessary information for products that have already been produced is missing (e.g. product carbon footprint).
- Cooperation in the supply chain: Collaboration between all parties is essential, but this is often hindered by a lack of transparency.
Our DPP software enables you to capture relevant data categories for the Digital Product Passport
automatically captured, smartly linked and usable across teams.
Product Carbon Footprint
The PCF provides information about your products’ CO₂ emissions and is an important component of the digital product passport. Use our software to quickly and easily calculate your products’ specific carbon footprints.
Transport emissions
Thanks to the automated calculation of routes and transport emissions, our PCF Monitor already provides an important parameter. You can see the impact of your suppliers’ locations within seconds.
Supplier sustainability data
In order to improve the quality of primary data, it is important to enter supplier-specific data and upload supporting documents. You can also send requests directly to suppliers via our DPP software, enabling them to provide any missing information.
Water consumption
Many products require large amounts of water to manufacture. This has a significant impact on resource efficiency, making it an important KPI in the digital product passport.
Energy consumption
The energy required to manufacture your products is also a key factor in calculating their carbon footprint. Use our intuitive dashboards to identify hotspots through targeted analyses.
Waste rates
Almost every production process generates waste. Classify the type and quantity of waste. Adjust processes to use materials more efficiently.
Our software particularly supports for the Digital Product Passport in the following industries
Increase transparency regarding the sustainability data of your products
This gives your departments and customers valuable insights into your products, enabling you to identify areas for improvement at any time. Manage all product data for regulations such as CSRD, ESPR and PPWR in one place.
Sustainability Management
- Carbon Footprints at product, material and process levels, including Scope 3.1 and 3.4
- A control centre for collaboration with purchasing, product development and production
Sales and
Marketing
- Easy access to specific information about your products
- Comparison options for different product variants and automated reporting
Purchasing and
Procurement
- Integrated supplier enquiries provide a seamless view of the supply chain
- Compare your suppliers’ emissions and the environmental impact of transport routes
Product development and
management

Digital Product Passport – Questions & Answers
Find answers to your questions about regulations, terminology and details about the DPP here.
What is the DPP?
A DPP is a digital representation containing detailed information about a product’s entire life cycle. This information should be both understandable and trustworthy. It includes details of materials and manufacturing processes, the use of raw materials and recycling options, and the product’s carbon footprint.
When will the DPP become mandatory?
When the ESPR comes into force in 2027, the introduction of the digital product passport will become mandatory. As part of the Green Deal and the Circular Economy Action Plan, the European Union has agreed to introduce measures to promote the circular economy.
What does the new Ecodesign Regulation (ESPR) stipulate?
The aim is to extend the life cycle of products, promote energy and resource efficiency, and advance the circular economy, making more sustainable products the norm. The Ecodesign Regulation is closely linked to the goals of the EU’s Green Deal, which aims to make the economy climate-neutral by 2050. A key part of the Green Deal involves strengthening the circular economy, whereby materials and resources remain in the economic cycle for as long as possible.
Which industries will the DPP be mandatory for?
The DPP is a key part of this strategy and will be introduced for more than 31 product categories on a mandatory basis. These include batteries (EU Battery Regulation), textiles, plastics, packaging, furniture, aluminium, steel and electronics, in particular. Companies must provide all the necessary product data and integrate it into the digital product passport.
