Digital Product Passport
A digital product passport is a structured digital data record that brings together information on a product’s origin, material composition, use, maintenance and disposal across its entire life cycle. In industrial identification and tracking processes, it can be linked to traceability and standardised identifiers so that product data can be assigned clearly to a specific object and updated automatically. Its aim is to provide greater transparency for production, logistics, service and the circular economy. Depending on the application, access may take place via RFID, QR code or other identification technologies. The digital product passport improves the transparent control and traceability of products across internal and external value chains.
