TIER 01 // GROUND ZERO

What are ESPR, GPSR & The Digital Product Passport?

The European Single Market is transitioning from paper certificates and static PDFs to mandatory, machine-readable digital identities for all commercial and industrial components.

EU REG 2024/1781

ESPR: Ecodesign

Requires physical products sold or integrated in Europe to provide verified digital disclosures of material composition, carbon footprints, and circularity.

Statutory ScopeSteel, Motors, Assemblies
Data Mandate10-Year Dossier Custody
EU REG 2023/988

GPSR: Product Safety

Active now. Mandates non-EU manufacturers appoint an accredited physical EU Responsible Person to legally hold dossiers inside the Single Market.

EnforcementCustoms Impoundment
Max Penalty€15M or 4% Global Turnover
EN 18223 STANDARD

DPP: Digital Passport

A decentralized digital twin tied directly to the physical component via 2D Data Matrix, delivering live machine-readable compliance data.

Data CarrierLaser GS1 Data Matrix / QR
IP Protection100% Zero-Knowledge Proofs
The Legacy Model: Static Paper PDFs

Paper test certificates and static email attachments. Rejected at automated EU customs borders, impossible for Tier-1 OEMs to aggregate, and exposes proprietary manufacturing recipes.

✕ Manual parsing · High audit failure rate · Risk of shipment seizure
The Modern Solution: Brijr Machine-Readable DPP

Decentralized Asset Administration Shells (IEC 63278) tied to a laser-etched 2D Data Matrix. Automated customs verification in <10ms with military-grade IP confidentiality.

✓ Instant OEM validation · Green-lane customs · Zero CAD leakage
CRITICAL MANDATE FOR NON-EU MANUFACTURERSEnforcement Active

The EU Responsible Person (EU RP) Requirement

Under GPSR (EU 2023/988), European customs authorities will hold, reject, or fine any commercial non-EU shipment that does not legally identify an official EU Responsible Person domiciled within the Union.

An EU RP is not a mere postal box or forwarding service. The entity must legally hold your component technical dossiers, test reports, and declarations of conformity, and must respond directly to market surveillance authorities during audits.

Status: Fully enforceable. Required on commercial shipping manifests, product packaging, and customs declarations.
