Chemical substance traceability

Chain-of-custody is a continuity capability; composition and substance traceability are depth capabilities. Neither replaces the other.

• •Supplier visibility/supply chain mapping - The system stores structured information about suppliers beyond Tier 1 (e.g. role, tier, location).
• •Product–supplier association - Specific products (styles, SKUs, batches) are linked to the suppliers involved in their production.
• •Material flow / chain-of-custody tracking - Material inputs, outputs, and transformations between supply-chain actors are recorded using a defined chain-of-custody model.
• •Product composition / component traceability - Products are represented as structured compositions (e.g. components, ingredients) that can be independently traced to upstream sources.

Sustainability Impact categories

Impact data coverage describes which sustainability-related topics a platform can store and manage data for. It does not indicate the quality of the data, the methodology used, or whether impacts meet specific regulatory thresholds.

• •Material attributes - (e.g. fiber type, recycled / biobased content, origin attributes)
• •Carbon & energy data - (e.g. GHG emissions, energy use, Scope-related data)
• •Chemical impact & compliance data - (e.g. restricted substances, chemical inventories, compliance status)
• •Supplier processes & practices - (e.g. production processes, management systems, operational practices)
• •Human rights & working conditions - (e.g. labor practices, social compliance data)

Types of sustainability impact data

Impact data coverage indicates what topics a system can handle; traceability capabilities indicate how precisely that data can be linked to products, materials, and processes.

• •Qualitative data - (e.g. yes/no answers, self-assessments, policy statements)
• •Quantitative data - (e.g. numeric values, measurements, calculated indicators)
• •Verification & audit evidence - (e.g. audit results, third-party verification status)
• •Certificates & formal attestations - (e.g. certificates linked to suppliers, materials, or products)

Life Cycle Assessment  (LCA) handling

Product carbon footprint (PCF) calculations represent a single impact category and do not constitute a full Life Cycle Assessment (LCA), which covers multiple environmental impact categories across the product life cycle

LCA results from external tools can be imported and stored - (e.g. impact indicators calculated elsewhere);

Risk assessment support

Risk assessment functionality indicates whether a platform supports identifying, prioritising, or visualising potential sustainability or compliance risks. Approaches vary significantly between tools and may rely on user-defined criteria, predefined rules, or system-generated indicators. Risk assessments are intended to support prioritisation and decision-making. They do not in themselves constitute legal compliance or due diligence.

• •Manual or externally defined risk assessments can be stored - (e.g. risk ratings entered by users or imported from external sources)
• •Risk visualisation and hotspot identification - (e.g. dashboards, maps, or prioritisation views)

Value chain actors involved in data exchange

• •Brand / retailer users - (e.g. internal teams managing products, suppliers, or reporting)
• •Tier 1 suppliers - (e.g. cut-and-sew factories, final assemblers)
• •Tier 2 suppliers - (e.g. mills, dye houses, processors)
• •Tier 3+ suppliers - (e.g. raw material processors, fiber producers)
• •Service providers / auditors / certification bodies - (e.g. third-party verification or compliance actors)
• •Consumers or external stakeholders - (e.g. read-only access via QR/DPP)

Consumer-facing access to product data

• •Consumer-facing product views are provided - (e.g. via QR code, URL, or Digital Product Passport interface)
• •External stakeholder access (read-only) - (e.g. regulators, auditors, partners)
• •Consumer-facing content is configurable by the brand - (e.g. control over which data is displayed)

Digital Product Passport (DPP) development activity

Prduct is actively developing Digital Product Passport functionality aligned with the EU ESPR regulation. Current DPP projects include pilot deployments with fashion brands, enabling product-level transparency via QR-linked consumer-facing pages. Status: live in beta.

EU regulatory readiness

Regulatory readiness reflects how a provider monitors and responds to evolving EU sustainability and supply chain regulations. It does not constitute a claim of legal compliance, as regulatory scope and timelines are still evolving.

EU regulations such as ESPR, EUDR, and CSDDD are core drivers of Prduct's roadmap. The platform actively aligns functionality with DPP requirements, supports supplier due diligence data collection, and runs customer pilots focused on EU regulatory reporting compliance.
