The challenge

The Digital Product Passport is more than a label.
It requires reliable product data and operational processes. 

Digital Product Passports are being introduced progressively across industries such as batteries, construction, textiles, steel and other product categories. The passport must be discoverable, trustworthy, and usable by customers, regulators, suppliers, repairers and recyclers. However, the required information is often distributed across internal systems, documents and supply chain partners.

What you need to keep in mind:

  • A QR code alone is not enough. The underlying data must be structured, standardized and interoperable. 

  • Different stakeholders require different information and access rights. 

  • Product data is distributed across ERP, PLM, PIM, sustainability, quality and supplier systems.

  • Supplier information may be incomplete, inconsistent or difficult to validate.

  • Product passports must be maintained as products, data and requirements change.
  • Regulatory requirements differ by product category and continue to evolve.

The risk:
Treating DPP as a one-off IT task creates fragile pilots, new data silos and expensive rework.

The solution

GS1 provides a common language.
Adnovum makes it work in the real world.

 

We combine GS1 standards with Adnovum's proven strengths in security, digital identities, data platforms, enterprise integration and AI.

How everything comes together:

  • GS1 foundations
    GS1 identifiers and Digital Link provide a globally accepted approach to identifying products and accessing their passports. Shared vocabularies ensure everyone is on the same page.

  • Trust and access control
    The solution determines who can see what, ensuring that consumers, partners, and authorities receive the information they require while sensitive data remains protected.

  • Secure data sharing
    We enable controlled data exchange across systems and supply chains, even when no single company owns or manages all the required information.

  • Automation with AI
    Enterprise AI reduces manual effort by securely extracting, checking and enriching product information and helping users find answers in DPP data.

The benefits

Compliance that supports your business rather than slowing it down.

Standards-based and future-proof 
GS1 identifiers, Digital Link, and shared vocabularies create a strong and enduring foundation. This helps you avoid pitfalls, dead ends, and vendor lock-in, while your DPP setup stays compatible with evolving regulations and ecosystems.

Lower operational effort, not just on day one 
Automation and structured data reduce ongoing manual work for data collection, validation, updates, and reporting. This matters because the DPP is not a one-time formality, but a living asset that requires continuous attention.

Trust built in by design 
Role-based access, security, and auditability protect sensitive data while keeping required information usable by partners and authorities. This creates confidence among internal and external stakeholders.

Scaling across products and partners 
Start with one product line, then reuse the same foundation across product categories, markets, and supply chain partners without redesigning everything.

Turning compliance into insight 
Once DPP data is structured and governed, it can also support transparency, sustainability reporting, and better decisions across the product lifecycle.

Digital Product Passports are industry-specific

The underlying capabilities are reusable, but regulations, product data, lifecycle events and business value differ by industry.

How we partner with you

Readiness check: We clarify which products are affected, what data already exists, where the gaps are, and how GS1 standards, access control, and governance fit together in your context.

Focused pilot: We implement one complete DPP flow for a selected product line, from identifier and access to data views and controls. This keeps the risks low and makes progress visible early.

Scale with confidence: The same architecture is extended to additional products, suppliers, and use cases. Standards and shared semantics make expansion predictable instead of complex.

Operate and improve: We help you keep the DPP up to date as products change and requirements evolve, including automation and AI support to reduce effort over time.
