Webinar: Digital Product Passports – Beyond Compliance

About the Webinar: Digital Product Passports – The Key to Growth Beyond Compliance

The Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR), effective since July 18, 2024, is reshaping industries like textiles, tires, cosmetics, luxury goods and more. By 2030, these products sold in the EU must feature a Digital Product Passport (DPP) — a digital record detailing the product's lifecycle, origins, repairs and environmental footprint.

While meeting these regulatory requirements is essential, compliance is just the starting point. DPPs can transform your business operations, from boosting efficiency and sustainability to enhancing customer engagement and unlocking new market opportunities.

Join Movilitas.Cloud & Spherity on April 29 at 12:00 PM CEST for an exclusive Lunch & Learn webinar featuring a special expert speaker on Circular Economy from the Wuppertal Institute for Climate, Environment and Energy, where we’ll dive into topics covering sustainability, regulatory compliance and future-proof solutions.

What Attendees Will Learn

• Achieve compliance readiness with ESPR and future regulations
• Streamline operations through smarter product data management
• Integrate circular processes to build sustainable business models
• Elevate customer trust and engagement with transparent product data
• Tap into new business opportunities in competitive markets
