Why now?

The Digital Product Passport is no longer optional — it's an obligation.

The EU's ESPR regulation requires products — starting with textiles, batteries and electronics — to make their carbon footprint, material content, repairability and supply-chain information transparent and verifiable. For exporters, this is a precondition for market access.

Bella DPP makes that transition seamless today with a flexible schema, open standards and automated compliance checks.

How it works

This is how a product earns its digital passport

Scroll down — follow a product's journey from concept to a verifiable digital identity, step by step.

STEP 01

Define the product

Everything starts with the product. Using a flexible schema per product group, you define its identity, origin and core details — no coding, just ready-made fields.

Flexible schemaGTINOrigin
STEP 02

Connect data & materials

Add the material tree, supplier data and documents. Every component and each individual serial number is written into the passport — no data left scattered.

Material treeDocumentsSerial · AI 21
STEP 03

Compute the carbon footprint

Product carbon and water footprint are calculated automatically from component, energy and transport data. The compliance score flags gaps instantly.

STEP 04

Sign it, make it verifiable

Once through the approval flow, you sign the passport with W3C verifiable credentials and did:web — tamper-proof, decentralized, verifiable trust anywhere.

STEP 05

Publish & share via QR

The published passport is printed onto the product as a persistent GS1 QR. Consumers and authorities access it with tiered access in 5 languages; every scan is a traceable record.

Everything you need, right out of the box

From the data model to the consumer page, from carbon accounting to signed verification — every layer of the DPP.

Carbon Footprint (PCF/LCA)

A native engine that computes product carbon and water footprint from components, energy and transport stages.

ISO 14067 / PEF

Substances (SCIP/REACH)

Declare each substance with CAS/EC number, concentration and SVHC flag; automatically track the SCIP notification threshold.

FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What is a Digital Product Passport (DPP)?
A DPP is a machine-readable digital record carrying a product's origin, materials, carbon footprint, repair/recycling information and compliance documents. Consumers usually access it by scanning a QR code. It is becoming mandatory for many products under the EU's ESPR regulation.
Which products need a DPP and when?
Under ESPR, priority groups such as textiles, batteries and electronics become mandatory in phases. For textiles, the delegated act is expected to apply around 2027. Bella DPP is already prepared for these data points with a flexible schema.
Which standards do you support?
The EN 18216–18246 DPP series, GS1 Digital Link, W3C Verifiable Credentials 2.0 and DID, ISO 14067/PEF, GS1 EPCIS 2.0 and ECHA SCIP/REACH. Outputs are available as JSON-LD and signed verifiable credentials.
Is there EU DPP Registry integration?
Yes. Identity assurance, a state machine and retry/idempotency infrastructure are ready. When the EU Registry live endpoint is operational, passports are submitted automatically via configuration.
Is NFC or RFID required?
No; the regulation does not mandate NFC/RFID. A QR (GS1 Digital Link) plus the Registry is sufficient for customs and consumer access. NFC/RFID can be added as a data carrier on request.
Is my data mine — can I take it with me?
Yes. Everything rests on open standards; you can export passports as JSON-LD, PDF and W3C verifiable credentials. There is no vendor lock-in.
