Trend Forum Textile & Machinery: "Digital Product Passport: Pathway to Circularity"

Staged in cooperation with Vincentz Network, this special event will focus on traceability and Digital Product Passports (DPPs).

In the furniture industry, the structural complexity of many products presents a huge challenge for recycling. It is often unclear what materials a product contains and how they can be efficiently recycled. This problem affects manufacturers of upholstered furniture and mattresses in particular.

Digital Product Passports (DPPs)
A DPP is a record that provides comprehensive information on a product’s components, its repairability and disposal recommendations. This ensures the traceability of materials and paves the way for high-value recycling. DPPs will be mandatory in the EU, and the German furniture industry associations and the German Institute for Standardization (DIN) are currently working on the precise parameters.
