What’s more, although they both have this technical infrastructure in common, the information to be disclosed and the legislative acts are different, and so are the timelines. </p> <p>Digital passports for a wide range of products will help consumers and businesses make informed choices when purchasing products as well as disposing them, and should also help public authorities to better perform checks and controls. The aggregate of all DPPs will improve traceability and transparency along the entire value chain of a product.</p> <p>At the same time, it will improve the management and sharing of product-related data which are critical to ensuring their sustainable use, prolonged life, and circularity. Initially, focus will be on three priority areas: the electric equipment & electronics,- battery,- and textile sectors.</p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="evb-spacer"><div class="evb-spacer"> <div style="height: 46px; background: ;"><br/></div> </div> </div> <div class="evb-video"> <div class="evb-video-component center wrapped"> <iframe width="100%" height="300px" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/18mUnV3phhI?enablejsapi=1&autoplay=0&controls=0&color=white" title="YouTube video player" allowfullscreen> </iframe> </div></div> <div class="evb-title"> <div class="evb-title-component"> <h3 class="evb-title heading-3">Objectives of the DPP: the urgent case for transparency and circularity</h3> </div> </div> <div class="evb-text"> <div class="evb-text-component"> <div class="evb-text"> <p>$163 billion worth of inventory globally is lost every year. According to “The Missing billions” report, overproduction and waste are exacerbating the supply chain crisis and hitting businesses to the tune of 3.6% of their annual profits as nearly 8% of stock perishes or is discarded. (AD Global Supply Chain Research, 2022). </p> <p>Global firms are planning to introduce technologies to identify unique item-level tracking and traceability to increase transparency in supply chains. </p> <p>In the years leading up to the DPP legislation coming into effect for the aforementioned priority sectors, it will be up to CIRPASS to present an unambiguous cross-sectoral technical definition and description of the passports. That includes a proposition for an open DPP data exchange protocol adapted to the needs of stakeholders in consumer electronics, based on up-to-date digital technologies and the development of use cases and roadmaps for piloting, deployment, and circular business value generation.</p> </div> </div> </div> <div class="evb-spacer"><div class="evb-spacer"> <div style="height: 24px; background: ;"><br/></div> </div> </div> <div class="evb-quote"> <div class="evb-quote-component"> <h4 class="quote-title">"This is the power of connected products, delivering end-to-end transparency for new business models that are both profitable and sustainable."</h4> </div> </div> <div class="evb-spacer"><div class="evb-spacer"> <div style="height: 46px; background: ;"><br/></div> </div> </div> <div class="evb-title"> <div class="evb-title-component"> <h2 class="evb-title heading-2">Avery Dennison’s digital solutions for DPP and how they support the adoption</h2> </div> </div> <div class="evb-text"> <div class="evb-text-component"> <div class="evb-text"> <p>Avery Dennison’s digital solutions connect the physical with the digital through our end-to-end ecosystem, combining digital triggers, atma.io connected product cloud, and a range of applications that connect the data back to brands and the consumers to provide transparency.</p> <p>Together, these solutions enable brands to prepare for the forthcoming legislation and benefit from improving supply chain visibility, providing personalized consumer engagement, and creating a more accountable, traceable, and circular ecosystem.</p> <p>Our digital solutions are being used by multiple brands: over 28 billion unique items are already on the connected product cloud, atma.io, enabling different use-cases for various brands.
