Digital Product Passport (DPP)

Definition

A digital record of a product’s key information, such as what it’s made of, how to repair or recycle it, and its environmental impact, usually opened by scanning a QR code. The EU is introducing DPPs under its Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR), one product group at a time, starting with batteries. For many products, the passport will include environmental data such as the carbon footprint.

In Context

“Our batteries will need a digital product passport, so we’re preparing the carbon footprint data it will include.”
