The Digital Product Passport (DPP) is coming - and with it new requirements for companies that sell products in the EU. Already from 2027 the DPP is used for product groups such as Batteries (>2kWh), electronics and textiles mandatory by law. Other sectors will follow.

Transparency, traceability and digitalization

The aim of the Digital Product Passport is to provide all relevant information about a product digitally throughout its entire life cycle: from material origin and carbon footprint to reparability and recyclability. The technical basis for this is clear product identification - for example via RFID technology.

Our role: RFID hardware for networked product data

As an established manufacturer, Kathrein Solutions supplies the right RFID hardware to make products digitally identifiable securely and efficiently - even in industrial environments, with high volumes or complex supply chains.

Our solutions make it possible:

  • Robust product labeling with RFID or hybrid technologies

  • Automated recording and traceability

  • Integration into existing IT and production processes

Implementation through strong partners

While we supply the hardware, our partners take care of the project implementation - from the data strategy and interfaces to the final implementation. For example, the RFID Consortium already well established in this area and have built up expertise. With technical depth, practical experience and clear recommendations for companies.

Working together towards compliance and efficiency

The introduction of the Digital Product Passport is more than just a regulatory obligation - it also offers the opportunity to modernize processes, create transparency and secure competitive advantages. Kathrein Solutions and his partners such as the RFID Consortium will accompany you on this journey - with reliable hardware, in-depth expertise and tried-and-tested implementation packages.
