What’s changing in EU product compliance?

The European Union is doubling down on environmental, human rights, and trade transparency through sweeping new regulations. Our speakers, Travis Miller and Eric Donato, walked attendees through the key frameworks shaping compliance in 2025 and beyond:

Digital Product Passports (DPPs)

EU-bound products must soon carry detailed material, recyclability, and repairability data. The DPP requirement is part of the broader push toward circular economy practices and sustainable supply chains.

Full Material Declarations (FMDs)

Using FMDs is no longer optional. EU regulations such as REACH, RoHS, SCIP, and the upcoming PFAS restrictions require substance-level insights across complex bills of materials. This transparency is essential to reduce risk exposure and meet filing obligations. 

Responsible Sourcing & Due Diligence

The EU’s forced labor ban and Corporate Sustainability Due Diligence Directive (CSDDD) are enforcing a new era of sub-tier supplier accountability. Companies must trace materials back to their origin and implement systems to detect, address, and prevent human rights violations in their supply chains. 

Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) Expansion

New EPR obligations mean producers must account for recycling fees on packaging, batteries, and electronics (WEEE). With over 250 schemes active across Europe, accurate product data and automated reporting workflows are critical to maintaining compliance and controlling costs. 

Carbon Border Adjustment Mechanism (CBAM) 

The EU’s new carbon import tax requires lifecycle emission disclosures tied to production processes. Manufacturers may need to reassess sourcing and manufacturing strategies to avoid costly border fees.
