EU Digital Product Passport Mattresses
ESPR’s Working Plan lists mattresses among its priority Digital Product Passport categories, with an indicative delegated-act adoption year of 2029 — a full year behind furniture and years behind batteries, giving AuthiChain time to structure the record now rather than scrambling once the required fields are set.
Why AuthiChain
- Mattresses sit one indicative year behind furniture on the ESPR Working Plan 2025–2030, both later-phase categories against the first-wave batteries and steel delegated acts already underway
- The record is the same W3C Verifiable Credential model already issued for furniture and textiles passports — durability, material sourcing, and end-of-life data slot into credentialSubject without a new schema
- An indicative adoption year is not a compliance deadline: the delegated act itself sets the actual date once adopted, typically with a runway of roughly 18 months after that
How it works
Issue a unique identifier per unit, anchor its record on-chain for tamper-evidence, and let anyone verify it with a single scan. Plans start at $49/mo.
FAQ
Is the mattress DPP mandatory yet?
No — the ESPR Working Plan 2025–2030 gives mattresses an indicative delegated-act adoption year of 2029. Until that act adopts, no mattress DPP requirement is in force.
What data would a mattress passport carry?
Based on other ESPR categories: material composition, durability, disassembly and recyclability, and any hazardous-substance declarations — the same fields already structured for the furniture and textiles passports.
