Digital Product Passports for textiles and apparel
Textiles are among the first product groups prioritised for ecodesign measures, making structured product and material information an immediate operational concern.
Build a complete composition
Record fibre and material names, percentages and sourcing information consistently. Composition should describe the complete product rather than an unexplained partial total.
Connect evidence to claims
Supplier declarations, certifications, care guidance and recycling information should remain connected to the product record so claims stay reviewable.
Design for multilingual access
Textile products move across borders. One durable passport should support the required languages without issuing a different QR code for every market.
Prepare for product-specific rules
Exact mandatory attributes and data carriers depend on final textile rules. A flexible record is safer than hard-coding assumptions into a static PDF.
