CIRPASS is preparing the ground for the gradual piloting and deployment of the Digital Product Passports, focusing on developing a roadmap for prototypes in three value chains: electronics, batteries and textiles.

Funded by the European Commission under the Digital Europe Programme, CIRPASS is a collaborative initiative to prepare the ground for the gradual piloting and deployment of a standards-based Digital Product Passport (DPP) aligned with the requirements of the Proposal for Ecodesign for Sustainable Product Regulations (ESPR), with an initial focus on the electronics, batteries, and textile sectors.
The project consortium is composed of 31 partners representing thousands of industrial,research, digital, international, standards, organisations across Europe and beyond. The 18-month project will respond to the European Commission’s call on creating a clear concept for the DPP, defining a cross-sectoral product data model and DPP system with demonstrated benefits for the circular economy as well as developing roadmaps for its deployment.
OBJECTIVES
CIRPASS Main Objectives
Among several impacts the project will create, its core objectives are to:
Present an unambiguous cross-sectoral definition and description of the DPP
Define a cross-sectoral product data model for the DPP with demonstrated usefulness for the Circular Economy
Clarify the requirements related to product identification
Propose an open DPP data exchange protocol adapted to the needs of Circular Economy stakeholders and propose such a protocol based on up-to-date digital technologies
Build stakeholder consensus on key data for circularity and related open European and global vocabulary standards to be included in the DPP for the batteries, electronics, and textiles value chains
Develop use cases and roadmaps for piloting, deployment and circular business value generation of cross-sectoral DPPs
