CIRPASS2: the European project for the implementation of the Digital Product Passport
event 11/03/2025
In the current context, marked by increasing focus on digitalization and sustainability, CIRPASS2 aims to implement solutions based on the Digital Product Passport across various industrial sectors, including electronics, textiles, tires, and construction. This tool will be essential for improving product traceability and promoting more efficient resource management within a truly circular economy.
The digital transition and the circular economy meet with CIRPASS2, the European project aimed at developing the Digital Product Passport (DPP) System for several industrial sectors, promoting transparent and sustainable data management throughout the entire value chain. Extra Red Engineering Group is among the key players in this initiative, funded under the Horizon Europe program (Call DIGITAL-2023-CLOUD-DATA-04), with a total budget of 12,558,703.42 euros, of which 50% is covered by European funds. The project will last for 36 months, starting in May 2024.
A project for traceability and sustainability
Thanks to the adoption of advanced technologies such as IDS Standard Connector and distributed data sharing systems, the project aims to create a secure and effective digital ecosystem for the exchange of information between the various actors in the value chain, relying on a central repository capable of retrieving source data from heterogeneous origin systems.
The role of Extra Red: innovation for a more connected future
Extra Red Engineering Group is responsible for:
- Designing and developing a European Digital Product Passport (DPP) System based on IDS Standard Connector and specific ontologies, ensuring secure and decentralized data sharing between a European registry and the various companies interested in obtaining information about digital passports in various industrial sectors.
- Supporting companies in adopting the new DPP system by providing tools and expertise to facilitate integration and compliance with the new digital regulations.
A new standard for European industry
The implementation of the Digital Product Passport System represents a fundamental step for European industry, allowing more transparent and structured access to product information. This system will enable the optimization of recycling, reuse, and resource management processes, contributing significantly to the European Union’s sustainability goals.
Conclusions
With the CIRPASS2 project, Extra Red Engineering Group reaffirms its leadership in digital transformation, contributing to the development of an innovative infrastructure for data management and European sustainability.
