Description
The webinar will be delivered in partnership with Santander UK.
On July 18, 2024, the European Union's Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR), entered into force. The ESPR contains several new measures, one of which is the EU Digital Product Passport (DPP).
The Digital Product Passport (DPP) provides comprehensive information about a product throughout its lifecycle. It typically includes details such as the product’s origin, composition, manufacturing process, sustainability attributes, usage instructions, and end-of-life disposal options. DPP’s require digital technologies such as QR codes to store and share this information securely and transparently.
DPPs serve as a tool for consumers to make informed purchasing decisions, for businesses to demonstrate product transparency and sustainability, and for regulators to ensure compliance with environmental and safety standards.
Central to this are labelling requirements for the EU DPP. These will provide detailed information on product composition, origins, environmental impact, and recycling instructions. Consumers and recyclers will have access to these details, ensuring that products are properly recycled or disposed of.
If you’re looking to create a stronger sustainability strategy and want to get your head around what the introduction of DPPs mean for your business, then this session is for you.
