Textiles are one of the first priority sectors under the ESPR. If you make or sell clothing in the EU, your product will need a Digital Product Passport with a QR code. This guide sums up what data to prepare and how to do it yourself.
Why textiles go first
The European Commission placed textiles among the ESPR priority groups because of their environmental impact. The delegated act with the concrete requirements is expected around late 2027, with realistic enforcement around 2028. Getting ahead avoids the last-minute rush and positions you with the retailers already asking for it.
What data a textile DPP needs
- Fibre composition (materials and percentages).
- Country of manufacture / origin.
- Recycled content.
- Recycling and end-of-life instructions.
- Durability and care.
- Substances of concern declaration (REACH).
