CIRPASS
An EU-funded consortium preparing the technical groundwork for Digital Product Passports across the textiles, batteries and electronics sectors.
CIRPASS and its successor CIRPASS-2 are coordinating reference data models, identifier choices and pilot implementations so that DPPs are interoperable across vendors, sectors and member states.
Most major DPP platforms (including ours) align with CIRPASS recommendations to ensure forward compatibility as final ESPR delegated acts are published.
