DPPs have the capacity to reduce waste and improve circularity in consumer electronics

More than just a tool for verifying sustainable and responsible manufacturing in line with ESPR legislation and circularity initiatives – Digital Product Passports are a tool for enabling widespread business transformation.

DPP Impact

Digital Product Passports can store data relating to each product at a granular level, giving a holistic view of its whole lifecycle and environmental impact. The data DPPs contain can provide organisations with an immutable audit trail for compliance with upcoming legislation, as well as give valuable insight into an organisation’s supply chain operations.

Sustainable Manufacturing

DPPs can contain raw material data, down to its extraction method, location, and staffing. Each product’s composition is displayed for stakeholders to scrutinise, helping organisations to prove the rare-earth elements they use - from tungsten to cobalt – are ethically sourced.

Ethical Disposal and Recycling

DPPs contain recyclability information for products that have reached the end of their lifecycle. Where products cannot be reused or recycled, DPPs can deliver detailed disposal instructions specific to each item, helping to reduce the amount of e-waste generated overall.

Connect with Consumers

For smart electronics such as phones and laptops, a product’s DPP opens a novel digital touch point. This can be used to deliver a personalised experience throughout the product’s lifecycle, from accurate customer service delivery to product augmentation and usage suggestions.

DPPs are mandated for all consumer electronics products made or sold within the EU by 2030.

The consumer electronics industry is required to make significant changes.

DPPs enable organisations to satisfy the regulatory requirements that will be imposed by the ESPR, which mandates the implementation of DPPs by 2030. For organisations that want to future-proof their operations and gain a first-mover advantage, it would be best to start considering a DPP solution now.
