Open compliance infrastructure for the circular economy.
OpenDPP is an open-standards readiness platform that helps organisations work toward the EU's Digital Product Passport legislation. We build sovereign passport tooling so that the data underpinning a circular economy is never locked behind a single proprietary vendor.
Sovereignty & interoperability, by design
As the circular economy scales, Digital Product Passports must not be locked behind private, centralised databases or monopolistic cloud providers. OpenDPP is built on two principles: open interoperability and economic-operator sovereignty.
The platform speaks standard W3C JSON-LD semantics, serialises identifiers through GS1 Digital Link, and aligns with Asset Administration Shell (AAS v3.0/3.1) submodels. That keeps your sustainability data, chemical inventories, and lifecycle declarations readable by any standards-based verification tool or circular-supply-chain recycling hub — today and a decade from now.
The passport is not a one-time filing. It is a living record that must stay accurate, signed, and reachable long after a product has left your warehouse — without surrendering it to a single vendor.
— The OpenDPP missionNo proprietary lock-in
We align with the open specifications the EU's federated DPP ecosystem is converging on, so your data stays portable and your compliance survives any single supplier.
-
Aligned with the decentralised modelYour data is tenant-isolated on the EU-hosted OpenDPP node. Registry-ready for the EU index (ESPR Art.13) — only unique ID pointers reach it, and the Art.13 pointer projection is already validated against the CIRPASS-2 reference registry (non-normative); battery registration in the Commission registry is not yet possible.
-
W3C DIDs & conformant UNTP credentialsResolvable did:web issuer keys, W3C Bitstring Status List revocation, and conformant UNTP DigitalProductPassport credentials (vc+jwt + ecdsa-jcs-2019).
-
Asset Administration Shell (AAS v3.0/3.1)Submodel and eCl@ss registry alignment for machine-readable interoperability.

Built to the EN standards familyDesigned to align with the CEN/CENELEC JTC 24 standards — EN 18219, EN 18220 and EN 18221, all cited in the Official Journal on 15 July 2026, plus FprEN 18246 (final draft, not cited) — and EN unique-ID formats.
The values built into every passport
Four commitments shape how OpenDPP handles your data, your keys, and your access.
Data ownership
Your sustainability data is tenant-isolated on the EU-hosted OpenDPP node — no central escrow, no cross-tenant leakage.
Open-standards alignment
Built to align with EN unique-ID formats, AAS shell schemas, and UNTP / EPCIS 2.0. Six of the EN 182xx series were cited in the Official Journal on 15 July 2026, so a presumption of conformity with ESPR Articles 10 and 11 now exists for conforming products; no certification scheme does.
Cryptographic verification
Elliptic-curve electronic seals under active B2B key custody, supporting x5c certificate chains to prove origin and provenance.
Multi-layered access & SSO
Dual-JWT authentication (local sessions and OIDC SSO) with wildcard permission scopes and supplier-boundary constraints against industrial espionage.
Decentralised, cryptographic, future-proof
- Aligned with the decentralised model. Passport data sits on the EU-hosted OpenDPP node in your own tenant-isolated space — not in a central EU database. Registry-ready for the EU index (ESPR Art.13): only unique ID pointers reach it, and the Art.13 pointer projection is already validated against the CIRPASS-2 reference registry (non-normative); battery registration in the Commission registry is not yet possible.
- Cryptographic trust. Every passport is signed using the brand's own per-tenant keys (encrypted vault custody, AES-256-GCM in Postgres), producing an eIDAS advanced electronic seal — JSON-LD product data with an offline-verifiable ECDSA Merkle-root signature for integrity and non-repudiation.
- Future-proof lifecycle. Designed to align with EN 18221 data-persistence requirements — passports are stored in a durable, portable format so circularity data stays resolvable across a product's expected service life.
