The European Commission starts a DPP Registry

Spherity becomes a Premium Partner of DIGITAL-PRODUCT-PASSPORT.PRO, strengthening our commitment to advancing trusted and interoperable Digital Product Passport (DPP) solutions.

How can Digital Product Passports and mineral fingerprinting technologies strengthen traceability in critical raw material supply chains? In the latest MaDiTraCe Talks episode, Prof. Eric Pirard speaks with PhD / Dr.-Ing. Doruk Şahinel, Technical Project Manager at Spherity, and Quentin Dehaine, Research Professor at Geological Survey of Finland (GTK) to discuss trusted material provenance, authentication, and transparency across the mining and processing value chain.

This document is based on a draft version of the Implementing Regulation (Ref. Ares(2026)4424976). Based on the draft European Commission implementing regulation, the EU is establishing a central Digital Product Passport (DPP) registry to securely store unique identifiers and monitor product compliance. To register or update a DPP, companies must comply with strict new identity and data requirements.

Companies across Germany and Europe are moving from general awareness of the Digital Product Passport to a more practical question: which provider can actually support implementation in a way that fits their products, data landscape, and regulatory timeline?

Discover how the Digital Product Passport (DPP) is evolving from a regulatory hurdle into a strategic industrial enabler. In an interview with Automazione News, Spherity’s Sales Director, Giuseppe Benenati, explains how verifiable, machine-readable data secures compliance while driving digital transformation and automation across value chains.

This article examines how Digital Battery Passports (DBPs) can close critical information gaps for first responders dealing with electric vehicle (EV) fires and accidents. Using a recent battery fires in trucks, on ships, and airplanes as a reference points, it shows how a lack of real-time battery and rescue data delays firefighting and increases risk.

As Europe pushes forward with its green and digital transformation, securing sustainable access to critical raw materials (CRMs), such as lithium, cobalt, and rare earth elements, is more important than ever. These materials are essential to technologies like electric vehicle batteries, renewable energy systems, and digital infrastructure.

Every year, as the Christmas season approaches, families fill their shopping baskets with toys, the gifts that will make living rooms shine on Christmas Eve. But behind the anticipation lies a growing concern in the European toy market: the rise of harmful chemicals in toys, especially in those bought online or imported from outside the EU.
