Product Passport Templates and ETIM

As the EU’s Green Deal continues to take shape, digitalisation efforts such as the Digital Product Passport (DPP) and standardised Building Information Modelling (BIM) processes are transforming the industry. However, these initiatives raise concerns about potential overlaps with existing classification and data exchange standards like ETIM. In this Initiative Multiplier, ETIM International examined whether these new standards complement or conflict with established frameworks. The discussion provided valuable insights into the industry’s evolving landscape and the potential for a more integrated approach to product data management.
