The regulation, explained to the people who have to apply it.
Long pieces, one question at a time: what the Regulation already requires, what the delegated acts will add, and which dates are set in law and which are only expected.
The Digital Product Passport for fashion
What it is, who has to produce one, when it really arrives, and what building one requires.
What a garment passport will have to contain
The field list as it stands, and how much of that list is still a proposal.
Model, batch or item: at which level the passport is issued
What the level changes for the label, the print run and the cost.
Who is responsible for the passport: brand, importer or manufacturer
Where the obligation falls, what a service provider may do, and who answers to the authority.
Supply-chain control in fashion, tier by tier
Which supply-chain data the passport and the new rules ask for, and how to collect it from suppliers.
The ESPR regulation, from the beginning
What the framework says, what it deliberately leaves to delegated acts, and which obligation already binds today.
Why fashion is the hardest case
Long chains, suppliers who do not use software, and data that is created three companies upstream.
