Yelo Business: Digital Product Passports for Businesses

A Digital Product Passport (DPP) is a digital identity card for your products, components, and materials. It centralizes all key information to improve sustainability, promote circularity, and ensure regulatory compliance.

The DPP allows standardized data to be stored, shared, and exchanged among all actors in the value chain: manufacturers, distributors, retailers, resellers, recyclers, authorities, and consumers. It enhances traceability, increases transparency, and supports after-sales services such as repair, resale, and recycling.

Each passport is linked to a scannable tag, such as a QR code or NFC chip, enabling users to easily access product information. Consumers can make more informed purchasing decisions and extend the life of their products, while authorities can automatically verify the existence and authenticity of imported products.

The information in a DPP can include:

• Product identification details (brand, model, serial number, batch, etc.)
• Ownership and authenticity information
• Warranty, service, and repair history
• Maintenance and repair instructions
• Materials and their origins
• Technical performance data
• Environmental impact information (carbon footprint, recyclability, etc.)
• Compliance with regulations and standards
• End-of-life options (resale, recycling, disposal)

Many Digital Product Passport (DPP) solutions are emerging in the market, especially in Europe where new laws are making their adoption mandatory. At Yelosquare, we go beyond mere compliance.

As a local company based in Quebec, we anticipate the needs of the North American market. We understand that regulations, circularity priorities, and consumer expectations vary from country to country.

With Yelosquare, you are ready to meet European requirements to continue selling your products internationally, while preparing for future Quebec and Canadian laws as well as emerging standards in North America, where the circular economy is gaining increasing importance.

We are committed to providing the essential flexibility to keep up with evolving regulations while quickly integrating new local standards and certifications. Our approach is based on three core values: transparency, authenticity, and innovation. We support the transition to a more circular economy and emphasize social impact by fostering collaboration among manufacturers, retailers, consumers, and regulators from design to resale and recycling.
