Digital Product Passport (DPP) for End Consumers

For end consumers, DPP is a tool for making informed choices and achieving greater transparency. It provides accessible information about the product – from its composition and sustainability to repair options and proper disposal. This enables consumers to choose more sustainable products and extend their lifespan.

Regulatory Framework

What Consumers Can Expect

When does it take effect?

Steel and iron go first (delegated act under ESPR, expected 2026), followed by textiles and furniture. The battery passport is a separate regime and applies from 18 February 2027. Gradually, almost all products will have a digital passport.

What information will consumers see?

Data on material origin, environmental indicators, usage and repair instructions, recycling options and sustainability.

Why is this important for consumers?

DPP gives more control, transparency and the ability for more responsible consumption, which reduces waste and supports the circular economy.
