Standing inside Tricorp sustainability, transparency and responsible production centrally.

But what exactly is the DPP and how does it help you as a professional?

What is the Digital Product Passport (DPP)?

The Digital Product Passport (DPP) is a digital tool that shows where your work clothing comes from, how it is made and what materials are used. It provides complete traceability, from raw material to end product.

With the DPP you can see, among other things:

• where your garment was produced;
• which one (sustainable) materials have been applied (e.g. recycled polyester, organic cotton);
• which one certifications and product badges apply;
• how the product scores sustainability (using a LCA);
• which partners are involved in the chain.

This transparency makes it easier to honestly compare and choose products sustainable work clothing that is really responsible.

Why does Tricorp work with a Digital Product Passport?

With the Product Passport, the European Union wants to ensure that products are more sustainable, transparent and better recyclable by 2030. The DPP supports the transition to a circular economy in which raw materials are reused for new garments.

For companies, the DPP offers benefits such as:

• better documentation of materials;
• more reliable supply chains;
•  more responsibility in every step of production;
• comply with EU sustainability legislation.

For you it means: clear information that allows you to make conscious choices in work clothing.
