Digital Product Passport Software
Create, publish, and maintain Digital Product Passports for your products—and link each DPP directly to the physical product via an NFC tag or QR code. Accessible via smartphone, hosted in the EU.
The Digital Product Passport: Both a Requirement and an Opportunity
With the Digital Product Passport (DPP), the EU is making product information digitally accessible throughout the entire life cycle - from origin and materials to repair and recycling. The Battery Passport will kick things off in February 2027, with other industries following step by step.
Those who view the DPP merely as a mandatory requirement are missing out on its potential. When implemented correctly, it becomes the digital interface to your product- for service, after-sales support, and direct contact with your customers.
For your DPP, we combine specialized DPP software with our many years of experience in RFID/NFC and QR code labeling - implemented in collaboration with our partners.
Four Steps to a Digital Product Passport
From the initial consultation to the ongoing project, you’ll receive excellent support: Together with our partners, we ensure that your product and data are reliably integrated.
The first step is to define your goals: Which EU regulations apply to your products now or will apply in the future - and what added value do you want to achieve in your company with the DPP, even before it becomes a legal requirement? This will determine what information your DPP should contain.
The required data is usually scattered across ERP or PIM systems, documents, databases, Excel spreadsheets, or with suppliers. It is consolidated and structured in the DPP software via an open API or through import.
Each product is assigned a unique identifier that can be used to retrieve its DPP - such as an NFC transponder in the appropriate form factor or a QR code. The most suitable solution depends on the product, material, lifecycle, and operating environment. This is where we draw on our experience with RFID/NFC and QR coding.
The DPP can be accessed via smartphone without having to download an app first, and is available in multiple languages. You can update the content throughout the product's entire lifecycle.
More Than Just Compliance: What the DPP Can Do for Your Company
The DPP is a legal requirement and, at the same time, provides digital access to every single product. This results in added value that goes far beyond mere compliance.
Do you have any questions? Our DPP experts are happy to help:
A DPP is only as reliable as the connection between the product and the data. For more than 25 years, we have been developing and manufacturing RFID/NFC identification solutions for a wide variety of applications.
We bring this expertise to your DPP project - ensuring that the RFID/NFC transponder or QR code is a perfect fit for your product and functions reliably in everyday use.

To which products does the DPP apply?
The DPP is being introduced gradually, on a sector-by-sector and product group-by-product group basis. It is primarily based on the EU Ecodesign Regulation (ESPR), supplemented by specific regulations for items such as batteries, construction products, and toys.
For ESPR product groups, the requirement generally takes effect approximately 18 months after the adoption of the respective delegated act. So far, only the battery passport has been finalized; all other dates are estimates (as of October 2026). The EU DPP Registry has been operational since July 2026.

Effective February 18, 2027: Mandatory battery pass for batteries in electric vehicles, industrial batteries exceeding 2 kWh, and batteries for light vehicles such as e-bikes and e-scooters (EU Battery Regulation 2023/1542). Portable batteries and starter batteries are not subject to the passport requirement.
Expected in 2027/2028: Textiles, with a focus on clothing, are among the first product groups covered by the ESPR. The delegated act setting out the specific requirements is currently being drafted.
Expected in 2027/2028: Electronic products and household appliances are expected to be included in the ESPR at an early stage
Expected in 2027–2029: Mattresses are expected to be covered starting in 2027/2028, and furniture starting in 2028/2029 - in each case based on the ESPR’s own delegated acts.
Expected in 2028: Tires are also on the ESPR's agenda. The requirement is expected to take effect in 2028.
Starting in September 2029: The new Detergents Regulation calls for a digital product passport for laundry and cleaning products.
Expected in 2029/2030: The Construction Products Regulation (EU) 2024/3110 provides for a digital product passport, including for products such as cement. The specific requirements will be set forth in delegated acts.
Expected in 2029/2030: Iron, steel, and aluminum are also included in the ESPR work plan as intermediate products. The delegated act for iron and steel is already being prepared.
Starting in August 2030: The new EU Toy Regulation (EU) 2025/2509 requires a digital product passport for every toy.
Frequently Asked Questions About Digital Product Passport Software
It consolidates all product data that a DPP must contain, links it to the physical product via a unique identifier, and makes it available digitally - for customers, service partners, and government agencies. In addition, content can be maintained, updated, and analyzed throughout the entire lifecycle.
No, you don't need to download the app beforehand. As soon as you scan the NFC tag or QR code with your smartphone, the DPP opens directly on your device.
That depends on the product, the environment in which it is used, its lifespan, and anti-counterfeiting requirements. QR codes are inexpensive, while NFC transponders are more robust, harder to copy, and can be integrated invisibly into virtually any product. We’d be happy to advise you on the right solution.
Yes. The DPP software can be integrated into your existing IT infrastructure - such as ERP or PIM systems - via an open API. Alternatively, product data can be imported.
All data is hosted on servers in the EU in compliance with the GDPR.
Now. Even if the requirement for your product group doesn’t take effect until later, compiling data from the supply chain, connecting systems, and integrating labeling into production all require lead time. Those who start sooner will reap the benefits of the DPP sooner.
