Digital Product Passport for construction products

Building materials without a classic GTIN, batches instead of unit counts, environmental product declarations instead of simple details - the DPP for construction products is a breed of its own.

Industry challenges

Building materials have three special features:

  1. No GTIN: cement, gravel, steel beams - usually no classic trade identification. Solution: SSCC, GIAI or batch codes.
  2. EPD requirement: an environmental product declaration to EN 15804 is laborious to produce and valid for five years.
  3. Batch variance: cement composition varies between batches. The DPP has to be referenceable per batch.

More on this: Construction products without a GTIN: how the DPP works anyway.

Required data

What goes in the DPP for Construction?

The key data fields required by the relevant EU regulation.

Material declaration

Composition, countries of origin, CE marking, harmonised standard.

Environmental product declaration

EPD to EN 15804, full life-cycle assessment.

Technical performance

Compressive strength, thermal conductivity, fire class, long-term behaviour.

Disassembly & deconstruction

Material purity, secondary-raw-material potential, deconstruction guide.

Our approach

Transpareo for Construction

Transpareo offers dedicated features for the construction sector:

  • Flexible identifiers: GTIN or your own codes (SSCC, GIAI, batch + product code) usable as the DPP URL
  • Upload EPD certificates (IBU, BRE, EPD-Norge) and reference them in the DPP
  • Batch-specific DPPs: one QR code per batch leads to the respective composition
  • Structured material data for passing on to BIM or asset databases
