Digital Product Passport

A digital product passport is comprehensive digital documentation that accompanies a product throughout its entire life cycle. It contains information on the origin of raw materials, production processes, quality tests, as well as data concerning logistics, servicing, and product disposal.

The digital product passport makes it possible to track the product history at every stage of its life cycle, supporting traceability, transparency, and compliance with standards. The digital passport is a key element of Industry 4.0, where real-time data integration plays an important role.
