ESPR compliance software for the EU Digital Product Passport

The ESPR (Regulation (EU) 2024/1781) makes a digital product passport the default for almost every physical product sold in the EU. dpp.gs is one platform that already covers 14 product sectors, issues GS1 Digital Link passports as JSON-LD, and is built on the new EN 18216–18223 European standards — so you are not betting on a proprietary format.

What the ESPR is, in plain terms

The Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation entered into force on 18 July 2024. It is a framework: it does not regulate every product directly, but empowers the Commission to issue product-specific delegated acts, most of which will require a digital product passport. The first ESPR working plan (2025) names priority groups including textiles, furniture, iron & steel, aluminium and tyres.

In parallel, the ESPR mandates a central EU DPP Registry (Articles 12–13) that stores key passport identifiers. dpp.gs already captures the registry fields for every product, ready to push when the Commission's endpoint opens.

Frequently asked questions

What is the ESPR?

The Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (EU) 2024/1781 is the EU framework that introduces the Digital Product Passport and sets ecodesign requirements for almost all physical products, through product-specific delegated acts.

Which products need a DPP first?

The first ESPR working plan names priority groups including textiles, furniture, tyres, iron & steel and aluminium. Batteries already have their own mandatory passport under Regulation (EU) 2023/1542 from 18 February 2027.

Is dpp.gs certified to a standard?

The EN 18216–18223 standards were published in May 2026 and a formal certification scheme does not yet exist. dpp.gs is built on the same open standards the EN series is based on — GS1 Digital Link, JSON-LD, W3C Verifiable Credentials and OpenAPI — and tracks the standards as they finalise.

Do I get locked in?

No. Passports are GS1 Digital Link URLs you own, data exports as CSV and JSON-LD, and our schemas and OpenAPI spec are public and MIT-licensed.

How much does it cost?

Two GTINs are free forever with no card. Paid GTIN tiers and an Enterprise plan (unlimited GTINs, SLA, white-label, REST API) are available as you grow.
