A Digital Product Passport is an electronic record containing information about a product’s origin, components, and environmental impact throughout its lifecycle. This digital document aims to provide transparency and traceability for goods. It stores data on material sourcing, manufacturing processes, and recycling potential. Such passports support consumer awareness and regulatory compliance.
