The Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR) launched by the EU aims to standardize sustainable practices, making sustainable products the new norm across the region.
The ESPR targets the ICT sector specifically due to its significant contribution to the growing e-waste crisis, with global e-waste projected to reach 82 million metric tons by 2030.
Digital Product Passports (DPPs) are introduced under the ESPR to enhance traceability and transparency, offering detailed records of each product's lifecycle, including material sourcing and carbon footprint.
The collection and utilization of detailed data through DPPs are expected to support businesses in adhering to sustainability norms while also empowering consumers to make informed choices.
