How Plastiks Helps You Meet Digital Product Passport Rules
The EU Digital Product Passport (DPP) is reshaping how companies report product sustainability. Soon, businesses must provide verifiable data on materials, recovery, and circularity — not just broad ESG claims.
Plastiks helps companies prepare by offering blockchain-verified recovery data and a rigorous accreditation methodology. Our system delivers transparent, standardized reporting aligned with DPP rules, helping companies meet compliance, avoid greenwashing risks, and build trust.
In this post, we explain how Plastiks supports businesses in meeting Digital Product Passport requirements with confidence.
What Is the Digital Product Passport?
The Digital Product Passport (DPP) is a new EU regulatory tool designed to make product sustainability transparent, traceable, and standardized.
The DPP will require companies to share detailed, verifiable information about their products, covering:
- Materials and components
- Environmental footprint (including carbon, energy, and water impacts)
- Reuse, repair, recycling, and recovery data
- Circularity contributions and end-of-life handling
It aims to improve circular economy outcomes, reduce waste, and empower businesses and consumers to make informed decisions.
The DPP will first apply to key sectors like textiles, electronics, and batteries — but it is expected to expand across industries as EU sustainability and anti-greenwashing rules tighten. It works alongside other European frameworks such as the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD) and the Green Claims Directive, reinforcing the shift from marketing-based sustainability to evidence-based compliance.
For businesses, the challenge is clear: you need verifiable, standardized data across your supply chain, ready to plug into the DPP system. This means moving beyond simple ESG statements and investing in processes that deliver traceable, real-world impact.
This is where Plastiks offers a powerful, practical solution.
Why Verifiable Data Matters?
The EU’s regulatory shift makes one thing clear: claims without proof will no longer be accepted.
According to the EU Commission, over 40% of corporate green claims are misleading or unsubstantiated. This has triggered the Green Claims Directive and Digital Product Passport rules, demanding that businesses provide verifiable, traceable, and standardized data — not broad marketing promises.
But what does “verifiable” actually mean?
At Plastiks, we define it as clear, traceable evidence confirming that recovery actions have taken place. This includes:
- Geotagged photos of recovered materials
- Timestamps on collection and processing
- Verified quantities and materials
- Blockchain entries to lock in transparency
It’s important to note: Plastiks uses robust internal verification, not formal third-party audits (like ISO certification). Our system is designed to be cost-efficient, scalable, and credible, ensuring that companies can meet compliance and ESG reporting needs without the complexity and cost of formal audits.
For businesses facing the Digital Product Passport, this kind of data is critical. Without it, companies risk supply chain disruptions, market access problems, and reputational damage. With it, they gain a future-proofed ESG strategy that satisfies regulators, customers, and investors alike.
How Plastiks Supports DPP Compliance?
Plastiks offers a blockchain-based system designed to help businesses generate the verifiable, standardized data required by the Digital Product Passport.
Here’s how it works:
We use a rigorous 3-step accreditation methodology:
- Define the recovery process, its roadmap, and budget
- Complete the legal, operational, and financial accreditation questionnaire
- Integrate blockchain tracking, and train the partner on plastic credit issuance
As Delfina Achinelly, Head of Methodology and Verification, explains:
“Our methodology isn’t about branding — it’s about standardized, rigorous, evidence-based processes aligned with ISO 9001 requirements. Using standardized processes enables us to replicate the methodology worldwide, pinpoint critical issues, resolve them, and ensure its continuous performance.”
This process ensures that every kilogram of plastic recovered is validated with clear evidence, including legal checks, social and environmental impact assessments, operational validation, and blockchain records.
We provide companies with a Web 2-friendly dashboard that delivers ready-to-use ESG reporting metrics, making it easy to integrate verified recovery data into broader sustainability and compliance frameworks.
Unlike systems requiring complex external audits, Plastiks offers a cost-efficient, scalable solution that ensures businesses can meet DPP, CSRD, and anti-greenwashing demands — while creating real, measurable impact.
Why Plastiks’ Approach Stands Out?
What makes Plastiks different is its ability to combine rigorous verification with scalability and cost efficiency.
Many ESG solutions focus only on carbon, only on material tracking, or only on broad sustainability goals — often requiring formal audits, expensive consultants, or fragmented data sources.
Plastiks, by contrast, offers an integrated, evidence-based system that delivers:
- Verified plastic recovery data, tied to environmental and social impact
- Blockchain-backed transparency, ensuring traceable, tamper-proof records
- Standardized processes aligned with ISO 9001 principles, replicable across global projects
- A user-friendly dashboard that integrates seamlessly into ESG reports, DPP submissions, and sustainability disclosures
Every kilogram verified by Plastiks goes through detailed checks: legal, operational, environmental, social, and blockchain tracking. This multilayered process, overseen by our Head of Methodology and Verification, Delfina Achinelly, ensures the data you report is real, transparent, and defensible — ready to meet investor, customer, and regulatory demands.
For businesses preparing for the Digital Product Passport, this means having a partner who can deliver real, provable data — not just numbers, but evidence-backed, credible impact.
