“We're extremely proud of the partnership we've built with Empower of the years. We've used their Plastic Credits to enable hundreds of ecommerce businesses to give back with their online sales. The traceability of the impact has also allowed us to create compelling and engaging impact timelines, where users can see when, where, and how their plastic was collected. The Empower team has always had our backs, and supported us and our work. We've collected over hundreds of thousands of ocean-bound plastic together, and we're only getting started.”

“The plastic cleanup program with Empower is a core part of VALLON's mission to offset our material consumption during production. We want to ensure that even though we create plastic waste, we are recycling more material than we generate, and Empower has been the perfect partner to enable this. As a company that encourages athletes and outdoor enthusiasts alike to spend quality time in nature, this value proposition has been warmly received by our community who are keen to see where their purchase has helped clean up plastic waste worldwide. We look forward to continuing our partnership with Empower as we grow, helping to clean up the environment, and providing a sustainable living to local communities.”

“Since the beginning, we set the standards of our hashtag #Impact measurement is quite high at Plastic Fischer GmbH. In 2021, we started tracking our collection with CleanHub's services to make sure, we could understand the performance of our collection sites in India and Indonesia from Germany. We then switched to the tracking-tool of Empower.eco and worked closely together with their team to tailor the software to the needs of a plastic collection and management company like Plastic Fischer.”

Fair Questions around DPP

A Digital Product Passport (DPP) is a digital record that tracks a product’s lifecycle, providing traceability, compliance documentation, and sustainability data from raw materials to recycling.

DPPs help businesses meet emerging regulations like the EU’s Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR) by ensuring transparency in material sourcing, product composition, and end-of-life disposal.

DPPs are becoming mandatory across industries like:

Textiles & Fashion: Circular economy compliance and material origin tracking.
Electronics & Batteries: Right-to-repair laws and recycling requirements.
Packaging & Plastics: Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) and recyclability standards.
Automotive: Carbon footprint tracking and supply chain transparency.
Pharmaceuticals & Medical Devices: Safety, compliance, and counterfeit prevention.
Consumer Goods: Sustainable sourcing and product lifecycle verification.

Empower’s blockchain-based DPP solution allows businesses to:

Create & manage DPPs with real-time data input.
Upload compliance documents and material certifications.
Track sustainability metrics for reporting and marketing.
Ensure secure, verifiable traceability from production to end-of-life.

DPPs help brands design for reuse, recycling, and sustainability by providing complete lifecycle tracking, enabling material recovery and reducing waste.

Yes, the EU Green Deal and ESPR regulations will require certain industries to implement Digital Product Passports to provide traceability and sustainability disclosures.

DPPs streamline Environmental, Social, and Governance (ESG) reporting by providing verifiable impact data, material sources, and sustainability performance metrics.

Empower’s DPP platform connects brands with recyclers, manufacturers, and material suppliers, ensuring end-to-end traceability through a centralized digital system.
