DPPs can help to increase circularity within the furniture market

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 Sourcing

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 manufacturing materials they use - from wood to fabric – are ethically sourced.

Increased Recyclability

To reduce the wastage created by the furniture industry, DPPs can contain end-of-life information such as product-specific recycling and remanufacturing instructions or ethical disposal procedures.

Tackling Greenwashing

DPPs can help organisations prove any green claims that they make by recording sustainability information for each individual product. Customers can access this information prior to sale by scanning the DPP, enabling informed purchase decisions based on sustainability.

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

The furniture 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.
