Digital Product Passport for Industrial Components

Iron, steel and aluminium are the first intermediate materials in the 2025–2030 ESPR Working Plan, with delegated acts expected in 2026 (steel) and 2028 (aluminium). For those importing them into the EU, the CBAM enters its definitive phase from 2026. MyLime’s DPP for B2B industrial use certifies composition, origin, process and recycled content to enterprise customers, with data ready for ESPR, CBAM and supply-chain reporting.

Regulatory framework

ESPR + CBAM + Critical Raw Materials Act

The ESPR Working Plan indicates delegated-act adoption for iron and steel in 2026 and for aluminium in 2028. The CBAM (Regulation (EU) 2023/956) requires those importing steel, aluminium and other carbon-intensive goods into the EU to declare their embedded emissions, with the definitive regime in force from 2026. The Critical Raw Materials Act (Regulation (EU) 2024/1252) requires large companies producing strategic technologies to periodically assess the risks in their supply chains.

  • 2026 (indicative) · ESPR delegated act for iron and steel
  • 2028 (indicative) · ESPR delegated act for aluminium
  • CBAM (Regulation (EU) 2023/956) · embedded emissions on imports
  • Critical Raw Materials Act (Regulation (EU) 2024/1252) · supply-chain risk

Why act now

Enterprise customers already demand structured reporting. The DPP is the format

Major automotive, aerospace and oil & gas supply chains ask their suppliers for carbon-footprint data, recycled content and batch traceability. Without a DPP the answer is in PDFs and spreadsheets — expensive and unauditable. With the DPP it is structured, automatic and auditable.

Use cases

What MyLime does for your industry

Six concrete applications of the Digital Product Passport, already live on brands in the industry.

  • Batch traceability

    Every batch of steel, aluminium or alloy has its own DPP with composition, smelting origin, material certificates.

  • CBAM emissions

    Embedded emissions calculated and signed per batch: data ready for the CBAM declarations of EU importers.

  • Recycled content

    Certified recycled share for steel, aluminium and plastics: a data point expected in ESPR delegated acts and required in green public procurement tenders.

  • Anti-counterfeiting for critical components

    Aerospace, high-end automotive and medical components with anti-cloning traceability.

  • ERP integration

    Native APIs for SAP, Oracle, Microsoft Dynamics. The DPP is generated directly from the customer’s management system.

  • B2B reporting

    Enterprise customers download already-structured ESG reports directly from the supplier’s DPP.

Industry FAQ

Frequently asked questions

Is the DPP scalable to millions of serialised components?
Yes. MyLime uses Merkle-tree anchoring: millions of components can be anchored on the blockchain with a single hash. The per-unit cost is a fraction of a cent.
Can I expose the DPP only to my enterprise customers and not to the public?
Yes. Visibility is configurable by role: public, authenticated enterprise customer, regulator. Sensitive commercial data stays confidential.
How does it integrate with SAP, Oracle and Microsoft Dynamics?
MyLime has certified connectors for all three ERPs. A typical integration takes 4–6 weeks and uses standard interfaces (IDOC, REST, OData).
