In a pivotal step toward reshaping sustainability in product lifecycle management, Layerise is thrilled to announce our active participation in the CIRPASS-2 Expert Working Groups 1 and 4 and the Community of Practice. This initiative, backed by the European Commission’s Digital Europe Programme, focuses on evolving Digital Product Passports (DPPs) across various sectors, with a strong emphasis on transparency, sustainability, and data-driven innovation.
Why CIRPASS-2 Matters
The CIRPASS-2 project builds on previous successes in digital product identification and data management, aiming to standardize DPPs throughout the European Union. DPPs offer a structured, digital solution that spans a product’s journey from production to end-of-life, helping businesses and consumers alike make informed choices about products’ environmental footprints and sustainable practices. CIRPASS-2 will initially target key industries, including electronics, while laying the groundwork for more extensive applications across the EU.
Our Role in Shaping DPP Standards
Layerise’s involvement in CIRPASS-2’s Expert Working Groups signals our commitment to supporting industry transformation:
Observatory Board: European and Global Regulatory Context (EWG 1): This group is dedicated to keeping a pulse on evolving regulations in the DPP landscape. Our role involves contributing to regulatory foresight and assessment, ensuring DPPs adhere to stringent sustainability standards. By participating in EWG 1, Layerise is helping to bridge policy developments with the realities of product lifecycle management, particularly around circularity, material safety, and compliance within Europe and beyond.
Electronics Stakeholders Group (EWG 4): As the electronics sector gears up to implement DPPs, EWG 4 focuses on unique challenges and opportunities. Here, we address everything from value and supply chain intricacies to the characteristics that make DPPs viable for electronics. We are committed to developing scalable, industry-specific solutions that support sustainable business models and empower SMEs in the electronics sector. This work involves exploring new business models and strategies to integrate DPPs seamlessly into the digital fabric of the industry.
