The basics

What is the Digital Product Passport?

The Digital Product Passport (DPP) is a product's digital record. A QR code on the product leads to data on materials, origin, environmental impact, repair and recycling. The EU is making it mandatory step by step through the Ecodesign Regulation (ESPR).

Sovereignty

Your data does not belong on someone else's platform.

Central DPP platforms collect every manufacturer's data in one place. Sovereign DPP turns that around: everyone keeps their data and shares only what they grant.

Central platform

  • Product data sits with the provider
  • Keys and identities managed by the provider
  • Permissions as the provider defines them
  • Suppliers upload their data

Sovereign DPP

  • Product data stays on your node
  • Keys and identities your identity provider, your keys
  • Permissions per field, revocable instantly
  • Suppliers keep their data

How it works

From item master to published passport.

Sovereign DPP connects the systems you already have and takes you to a finished passport in five steps.

  1. 01

    Connect

    Connect SAP, PLM, PIM, Excel or REST. Your master data stays where it is.

  2. 02

    Map

    AI proposes how your fields map to the passport schema. You confirm with one click.

  3. 03

    Validate

    Fixed rules per product group check every record before it goes into a passport.

  4. 04

    Grant

    Decide per field who sees what: public, retail, recycler or authority.

  5. 05

    Publish

    Passport page, JSON and QR code. Signed, versioned and under your domain.

Supply chain

Suppliers deliver proof. Not their recipes.

Every participant runs its own node. The brand's passport stores only the link. Authorised parties retrieve sensitive data directly from the supplier.
