What manufacturers need to know about ESPR, LCA and the systems behind a credible Digital Product Passport

Digital Product Passports are moving closer to implementation. Textiles are among the priority product groups under the ESPR, and the EU has now put key standards and registry arrangements in place. While final product-specific data requirements are still being developed, manufacturers can already begin assessing whether their data, processes and systems are ready.

The hard part will not be creating the passport itself. It will be finding, validating and continuously updating the product, material, supply-chain and environmental data behind it.

In this 60-minute webinar, Sphera experts and Klopman International will address the questions manufacturers need to resolve now:

  • What is already known about the ESPR—and what remains undecided?
  • Which data should companies begin identifying and organizing?
  • Why will LCA become central to credible product-level information?
  • How can data, processes, software and automation work together?
  • Where can AI help without compromising transparency or control?

You will also hear a textile-industry perspective from Klopman International, as textiles are among the first product groups prioritized for ecodesign requirements and a Digital Product Passport.

Register to identify what your organization should start doing now—and what can wait until product-specific requirements are clearer.
