EU Regulation 2027

Digital Product Passport (DPP): Are you ready for 2027?

The European regulation requires a traceable DPP for textiles, batteries, and electronics starting in 2027. Kalicertif makes you compliant today.

What is the Digital Product Passport?

The Digital Product Passport is a structured dataset about a product's origin, composition, repairability, and environmental impact. Mandated by the European ESPR regulation (Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation), it will be required to sell certain products in the European Union from 2027.

Who is affected?

Any manufacturer, importer, or distributor selling regulated products in the EU: textiles, batteries, electronics, furniture.

What data?

Unique identifier, material composition, carbon footprint, repair instructions, recycling options, supply chain traceability.

What penalties?

Fines, ban from the European market, product recalls. Non-compliant businesses risk losing access to the EU market.

DPP implementation timeline

2024

ESPR regulation adopted

The legislative framework is established. Delegated acts specify requirements by sector.

2025 - 2026

Preparation phase

Businesses must structure their product data and choose a compliant technical solution.

2027

Batteries & Textiles

The DPP becomes mandatory for industrial batteries and the textile sector. First wave of enforcement.

2028 - 2030

Progressive expansion

Electronics, furniture, and other sectors progressively fall within the scope of the DPP.

Warning

Businesses that wait until 2027 risk being caught off guard. Technical solutions, data structuring, and team training require 12 to 18 months of preparation.

Mandatory data in the Product Passport

  • Unique product identifier (UUID)
  • Manufacturer information and production site
  • Material composition
  • Repair and maintenance instructions
  • Product carbon footprint

Frequently asked questions about the DPP

The first targeted sectors are batteries (2027), textiles (2027), and electronics (2028). The ESPR regulation provides for progressive extension to other product categories, including furniture and chemicals.

No. Any product sold in the EU must be compliant, regardless of the country of manufacture. Importers and distributors are also responsible for providing a compliant DPP.

A traditional certificate is a static document. The DPP is a structured dataset, digitally accessible (QR/NFC), updated throughout the product lifecycle, and compliant with a specific regulatory format.

On average, 12 to 18 months for full compliance: auditing existing data, structuring, technical integration, and team training. This is why it is crucial to start now.

Yes. The DPP is not static: it evolves with the product (repairs, ownership transfers, recycling). Our platform allows real-time data updates, with each modification anchored in the blockchain.
