What is the Digital Product Passport
Every product can tell its own story
A product’s digital identity card
The Digital Product Passport opens with a QR code printed on the item or its packaging, and gathers in one place the information that matters: what it is made of, where it comes from, how to use it, how to repair it, where it ends up.
Where it comes from
The digital passport stems from a choice made by Europe: moving from an economy that produces, uses and throws away to one that keeps value within the cycle. The technical tool for that choice is the ESPR regulation, in force since July 2024. The obligation to adopt it arrives progressively, one sector at a time.
It follows the product
throughout its life
A label says things once, at the moment of sale. The passport, instead, is constantly updated: for example, it can record the stages of the product’s life such as maintenance, repairs, changes of ownership, and its delivery for recycling at end of life.
One single piece of data
for different audiences
The same passport speaks to several parties, and each sees what they need: consumers the information to choose and use the product, companies what they need to prove their claims, authorities the control data, recyclers the technical data. Confidential information remains protected: the right to know concerns the product, not the secrets of those who make it.
How it works, in brief
Three elements make it work:
- A unique digital identity for each product, its passport number
- A European registry that lists passports and makes them traceable by the authorities
- A set of common technical rules, so that a passport filled in in Italy is readable and reliable throughout the European Union
The actual data stays with the company that produces it, or with whoever manages it on its behalf.
But a passport
is only worth as much as its data?
It can contain solid information or approximate information, and readers cannot tell them apart at a glance. What makes the difference is the reliability of what is inside. This is where The Nest Company’s work begins.
