NAFFIC and AWARE Launch First China-EU DPP for Textiles Mandatory by 2027

NAFFIC and AWARE have launched the first Digital Product Passport (DPP) for textiles, which will be mandatory for all textile products sold in the EU starting in 2027. This DPP provides scannable proof of a product's origins and environmental footprint, tracking the supply chain from post-consumer plastic bottles in China to the finished garment produced for the brand Iqoniq. The system combines NAFFIC’s Sustainable Textiles Credible Platform with AWARE’s blockchain technology, ensuring verifiable data for consumers and regulators. This development may influence global supply chains and compliance standards in the textile industry.
