Regulations: DPP, PPWR, EUDR
The product passport starts in the warehouse
The Digital Product Passport, the Packaging Regulation and the deforestation rules share a common foundation: they require reliable data on what a product is made of, where it comes from and where it went. SmartDepot records this data at the moment of receipt, production and issue, so there is no need to reconstruct it from spreadsheets after the fact.
Many regulations, one data set
What?
A product with a GTIN, its packaging, batch, serialised item and SSCC logistic unit.
Who and where?
Supplier, recipient, branch, warehouse and location.
Where from and where to?
Receipt from the supplier, consumption of raw materials on the production order, transfers and issue to the recipient. Each event has a date and the person who performed it.
On what basis?
The warehouse document and the production order, with supplier certificates and declarations planned.
What the regulations require and what SmartDepot provides
For each regulation, we show which data SmartDepot records today and what is on the development plan.
EUDR
Deforestation Regulation, (EU) 2023/1115
What it requires
For cattle, cocoa, coffee, oil palm, rubber, soya and wood, and products made from them: a link between the product, batch and logistic unit and the supplier, recipient, event and the reference number of the due diligence statement (DDS). Records are kept for 5 years. The rules apply to large and medium-sized companies from 30 December 2026 and to micro and small companies from 30 June 2027.
What SmartDepot provides
Batches and SSCC logistic units are linked to the receipt from the supplier, the production order and the issue to the recipient. The movement history shows when and in which location the batch was stored.
Planned
The DDS number recorded at receipt and carried over to the issue, the CN code in the product record, and a report linking batches to statements, ready to present to the competent authority.
DPP
Digital Product Passport, Ecodesign Regulation (EU) 2024/1781
What it requires
A passport accessible through a data carrier on the product, with a unique identifier and information on composition, origin, repair and recycling. The scope of data and the deadlines are set by delegated acts for successive product groups.
What SmartDepot provides
GTIN, batch, dates and serial number on GS1 labels, and the origin of the finished product: raw materials and their batches consumed on the production order.
Planned
A public batch or item page in the GS1 Digital Link standard, at an address on your company's domain.
See how it worksPPWR
Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulation, (EU) 2025/40
What it requires
Packaging identification, information on material composition, weight, recycled content, recyclability and reuse, and reporting on packaging placed on the market. The regulation applies from 12 August 2026, with further obligations phased in.
What SmartDepot provides
A multi-level packaging structure for each product, from unit through carton to pallet, and an exact record of packaging received and issued.
Planned
Material, weight and recycled content for each packaging type, and a summary of packaging placed on the market by material and weight, prepared for reporting.
EmpCo
Directive on empowering consumers for the green transition, (EU) 2024/825
What it requires
Environmental claims such as “eco-friendly” or “green” must be true and verifiable. Generic claims without documented evidence are prohibited.
What SmartDepot provides
The origin and composition of a batch follow from receipt and production records, not from declarations. Each claim can be traced to a specific batch and document.
Planned
Supplier certificates and declarations attached to batches, with an expiry date, and shown on the public product page.
Rollout order
We match the order to the deadlines that apply to your company. EUDR has the nearest deadline, so we start there.
EUDR data
DDS number at receipt and issue, CN code in the product record, report linking batches to statements.
GS1 Digital Link
A QR code with an address on your company's domain and a public batch or item page.
Packaging data
Material, weight and recycled content per packaging type, and a summary for PPWR reporting.
