What Circularise covers

Reliable product information starts with connected supplier evidence

Circularise connects supplier declarations, component specifications and sourcing records to the products they cover. Reuse that evidence for passport preparation, compliance, procurement and circularity, while protecting confidential supply-chain information.

Product passports and ecodesign information

Connect product identity, composition and performance evidence for future ESPR passports and existing ecodesign and energy-labelling requirements. Keep repairability, recyclability and recycled-content information linked to the relevant product model and supporting documentation.

Substance compliance and responsible sourcing

Link material declarations and test reports to components for RoHS and REACH assessments. Connect origin and supplier evidence for sourcing decisions, customer due-diligence requests and preparation for the Forced Labour Regulation.

Recycled materials, repair and recovery

Trace recycled inputs and substantiate recycled-content claims. Connect repair, dismantling and material-separation information for WEEE treatment requirements and recyclability assessments, including permanent-magnet composition, location and removal information for products covered by the CRMA.

Batteries and packaging

Connect battery identity, QR-linked information and replacement instructions with relevant supplier evidence under the Battery Regulation. Organise packaging composition, recycled-content and reuse records for applicable PPWR requirements and reverse-logistics activities.

Implementation workflow

Collect supplier evidence. Connect product versions. Share with confidence.

A component substitution, new battery supplier or revised material specification can change the evidence behind a product. Establish a repeatable workflow that keeps procurement, compliance and customer-facing information aligned as products evolve.

  1. 1

    Collect supplier and product information

    Request component specifications, material declarations, sourcing records, test reports and relevant battery and packaging information from suppliers. Connect responses to the products they cover, review completeness and follow up on missing or outdated evidence.

  2. 2

    Trace materials and components

    Link supplier evidence to materials, components, product models and relevant batches. Preserve connections across product configurations and supplier changes. For recycled or certified inputs, maintain chain-of-custody records and the calculation or allocation methods behind each claim.

  3. 3Controlled sharing

    Share information for each purpose

    Provide approved information through digital passports, QR-linked views, APIs and controlled partner access. Give customers, repair partners, recyclers and authorised reviewers access to the information they need, while protecting confidential supplier records and keeping disclosures connected to their evidence.

Electronics and appliances data model

Connect the product, its components and the information needed throughout its life

Bring product identity, composition, sourcing and circularity information together. Give teams consistent records for supplier assessments, regulatory disclosures and customer requests, with information tailored to each product and requirement.

Product identity and composition

Establish which product, components and materials the information covers.

  • Product model, configuration, batch or serial references and responsible-operator details
  • Bill of materials, component identifiers, material specifications and weights
  • Battery category and chemistry; permanent-magnet type, composition and location, where relevant

Sourcing and recycled content

Connect material provenance and environmental claims to evidence.

  • Suppliers, production sites, material origins and relevant sourcing documentation
  • Recycled-feedstock origin, quantities and chain-of-custody records
  • Recycled-content calculations, environmental assessments and certification scope

Substance and conformity evidence

Keep supporting documentation connected to the correct product version.

  • RoHS and REACH declarations, chemical test results and applicable exemption references
  • Relevant conformity documentation, performance tests and energy-labelling references
  • Supplier evidence and assessment records covering batteries, components and packaging

Repair, recyclability and recovery

Preserve information that helps keep products and materials in use.

  • Spare-part references, repair instructions and battery or component replacement guidance
  • Recyclability assessments, dismantling instructions and information on materials or components requiring separate treatment
  • Packaging composition and reuse specifications, alongside weights and categories for applicable WEEE, battery and packaging reporting

Electronics and appliances readiness

Start with one product family and the evidence it needs

Passport preparation can improve product information management before mandatory DPP requirements apply. Start with a defined range, connect the evidence already available and build a process that can expand across suppliers and markets.

Map your product readiness with Circularise
  1. 01

    Confirm products, markets and responsibilities

    Identify the electronics and appliance categories involved, together with your role as manufacturer, importer or distributor. Assess finished products, separately supplied components, batteries and packaging against their respective requirements, including own-label products.

  2. 02

    Prioritise supplier evidence

    Begin with component identity, material composition, substance declarations and the evidence behind existing claims. Establish who holds each record, which products it covers and when it needs review. Translate those needs into consistent requests to OEMs and suppliers.

  3. 03

    Define access and ownership

    Assign responsibility for requesting, reviewing, approving and updating information. Determine which records are shared with customers, repairers, recyclers and authorities, and which supplier details require restricted access.

  4. 04

    Connect systems and manage changes

    Plan connections with ERP, PLM, procurement and compliance systems. Define how component substitutions, supplier changes, revised declarations and refurbishment activities trigger a review of affected product records.

Electronics & Appliances FAQ

Which electronics and appliances will need a Digital Product Passport, and when?

There is no single DPP deadline covering all electronics and appliances. The ESPR Working Plan schedules horizontal repairability measures for adoption in 2027 and measures on recycled content and recyclability of electrical and electronic equipment for 2029. Product-specific rules will determine the relevant scope, information and timing. Companies can already connect the supplier and component evidence needed for existing requirements and future passports.

Does every battery-powered product need a battery passport?

No. From 18 February 2027, battery passports are required for EV batteries, LMT batteries and industrial batteries with a capacity above 2 kWh. Portable batteries commonly used in electronics and appliances are outside that passport scope, but are covered by battery QR-code requirements from the same date. Connect the relevant battery information to the finished product, while assessing removal, replacement and other obligations separately.

How does traceability help with RoHS and REACH?

Traceability connects supplier declarations, specifications and test results to the materials and components they cover. This helps teams identify missing evidence, review the basis for compliance assessments and respond when suppliers, substances or exemptions change. Circularise keeps that evidence connected and available for review.

Can the same product information serve repair, recycling and producer-responsibility requirements?

Yes. Product identity, weight, composition and component information can inform several activities. Repair partners need relevant spare-part and replacement information; treatment facilities need dismantling and substance information; reporting teams need product categories, weights and market records. Circularise connects these uses to their underlying evidence, with access adapted to each recipient.
