The ESPR has entered into force, and product-specific rules will begin rolling out from 2025. Enforcement will ramp up between 2027 and 2028, depending on the product group. Companies that start integrating DPP-ready systems now will face far fewer challenges when enforcement begins.

Final thought

The Digital Product Passport represents a major step towards a connected, circular economy. It moves sustainability from static reporting to continuous, verifiable data sharing across every product's life.

TraceID enables manufacturers and suppliers to prepare for this future by building a unified data foundation that supports DPPs, ESG goals, and long-term compliance.
