BC4EU webinar | Blockchain‑Enabled Digital Product Passports for Circular Supply Chains

​Blockchain for Europe is organising a webinar focused on the application of blockchain‑enabled Digital Product Passports (DPPs) in the agriculture sector.

​Building on the insights from the “Blockchain‑Enabled Digital Product Passports for Circular Supply Chains” paper, developed with Fraunhofer IML, the session will explore how DPPs are evolving from a policy concept to a practical data layer underpinning EU sustainability, compliance and lifecycle reporting frameworks.

​As DPPs become embedded across key EU instruments such as the Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR), the Battery Regulation, and the Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM), agriculture stands out as a sector where implementation can deliver immediate and tangible value.

​Agriculture generates significant operational and environmental data, yet this information remains fragmented across actors. Blockchain‑anchored DPPs offer a way to unify these datasets into a trusted and interoperable system, strengthening traceability, improving transparency and supporting EU objectives for more circular supply chains.
