The Textile Bioengineering and Informatics Society (TBIS) and Fashion Big Data Foundation (FBDf) invite manufacturers, brands, technology providers, importers and exporters, testing laboratories, certification bodies, and industry associations to participate in the FBD Fashion & Textile Digital Product Passport (DPP) Use Case Programme, hosted on Circular-data.org.

 

The programme is supported by the Fashion Big Data (FBD) Digital Product Passport platform developed from the EU Horizon 2020 project FBD_BModel.

 

Coordination under CIRPASS-2 EU Digital Product Passport Ecosystem

The programme is coordinated through the “Fashion Textile DPP Use Case” cluster on Circular-data.org, established by the CIRPASS-2, which is a project funded by the European Commission to advance Digital Product Passport implementation, including development and testing of the EU mock DPP registry environment and the execution of DPP use case pilots.

 

Purpose of the Programme

The programme aims to:

• Register DPP with the CIRPASS-2 mock EU DPP registry environment and develop technically structured and formally documented textile DPP use cases published on Circular-data.org.

• Demonstrate implementation pathways across fibre, yarn, fabric, garment, and related sectors.

• Align datasets with TBIS-IGS DPP standards (Technical Performance, Environmental Footprint, Circularity, ESG).

• Supporting interoperability testing within EU-compatible DPP environments on CIRPASS-2 mock EU registry and pilot testing community on circular-data.org.

 

The programme provides participating organisations with an opportunity to develop and test DPP datasets in preparation for the upcoming EU Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR).
