Productsup and Protokol partner to streamline creation of Digital Product Passports to prepare for EU compliance

Published

on

The new integration empowers companies to prepare for upcoming European Union regulations faster and more cost-effectively

BERLIN, May 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Productsup, a leading enterprise feed management and syndication platform, together with Protokol, a leading Digital Product Passport (DPP) solutions provider, today announced a new partnership enabling companies to create DPPs from existing product data to prepare for the EU’s upcoming Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR). The collaboration offers a direct integration between the two platforms, enabling businesses to leverage their optimized product data to create Digital Product Passports effortlessly.

As the ESPR will mandate the implementation of DPPs across several industries and product groups — for businesses placing products in the EU market, regardless of where they’re manufactured — the partnership supports all businesses now navigating these new requirements.

“Gathering product data to create DPPs is often a significant undertaking for companies, requiring teams to source information from disparate sources and systems, organize and standardize the data in various formats, and make it readily available to the right stakeholders,” said Lars Rensing, CEO at Protokol. “The beauty of our partnership with Productsup is that companies seeking to create DPPs can simply utilize their existing product data, both from the Productsup platform and imported from external sources. It reduces the burden of gathering and organizing that data in line with EU DPP requirements, so you achieve compliance faster without rework or disruption, saving time and minimizing errors.”

The EU’s DPP mandate, part of the broader Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR), aims to boost product traceability, sustainability, and circularity across industries. Starting in 2027 with sectors like textiles, and industries such as steel and electronics to follow shortly after, the DPP will make key product information — from materials and repairability to recyclability and environmental impact — accessible throughout a product’s lifecycle. This will help businesses meet sustainability goals, enhance supply chain transparency, and empower consumers to make more informed choices.

Complementing this, the Omnibus Regulation is designed to harmonize sustainability data sharing across policies like ESPR and the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD). Even as CSRD implementation faces delays into late 2025, companies are using this window to prepare for long-term compliance. To be DPP-ready, businesses must collect and standardize detailed product data, such as material composition, repair guidelines, and certifications, in secure, machine-readable formats accessible to stakeholders across the supply chain, in line with ESPR and Omnibus standards.

“Our integration with Protokol doesn’t just help businesses prepare for compliance — it automates complex data processes to deliver a smarter, more scalable solution,” said Johannis Hatt, CEO at Productsup. “Companies can automatically transform their enriched product data into detailed digital product passports — without manual reformatting or redundant data entry. This direct integration streamlines the entire DPP creation process, reducing the time and resources required to prepare for EU mandates. By combining our strengths, we’re bringing an end-to-end offering to the market, helping companies work toward compliance while safeguarding data integrity and setting them up for long-term success across multiple regulatory landscapes, from DPP to CSRD and beyond.”

From Waste to Value: How Jereh Builds the Circular Ecosystem for Batteries

Published

on

By

YANTAI, China, June 14, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — As electric vehicles and energy storage systems scale globally, a critical challenge has emerged: how to manage millions of batteries at the end of their life cycle.

The EU Battery Regulation and similar frameworks are imposing stricter mandates for recycled material content, carbon footprint disclosure, and end-of-life responsibility. Battery recycling has evolved from an environmental compliance duty to a strategic cornerstone of critical material security, supply chain resilience, and the energy transition.

One question remains: can compliant battery recycling be both sustainable and commercially viable?

For Jereh, the answer lies in its intelligent battery recycling demonstration facility in Zhengzhou, China. Since commissioning, the plant has processed more than 15,000 tons of raw feedstock, maintained a utilization rate above 80%, and achieved profitability within its first year of operation. Both the black mass recovery rate and purity exceed 98%, while copper and aluminum separation efficiency reaches up to 96%, underscoring the viability of industrial-scale battery recycling.

This facility served as the validation platform for Jereh’s Lithium Battery Recycling Equipment 1.0. Building on real-world operating data, Jereh has developed its next-generation Lithium Battery Recycling Equipment 2.0 and introduced its LFP Cathode Material Regeneration Solution, further enhancing the value recovery of end-of-life batteries.

The upgraded 2.0 equipment increases single-line annual capacity by 50% while improving operational safety, efficiency, and environmental performance. Meanwhile, the LFP regeneration solution reduces processing costs by 40% through a dry physical process, achieves up to 95% stripping efficiency, eliminates wastewater discharge, and cuts carbon emissions by around 60%.

Beyond technology development, Jereh is expanding its global battery recycling footprint through localized partnerships across South Korea, Australia, Hungary, and the United States. Following the successful 1.0 validation in Zhengzhou, the 2.0 equipment in Guangzhou and Chongqing is expected to commence operations in the coming weeks, with plans for further deployment in overseas markets. Recently, Jereh also signed an agreement with Witthal Gulf to jointly develop a benchmark lithium battery recycling project in Abu Dhabi. The project marks another milestone in Jereh’s efforts to support the development of sustainable battery recycling infrastructure worldwide.

Jereh also contributes to the development of battery recycling standards and safety frameworks, supporting a more mature and transparent recycling ecosystem. For Jereh, the goal is clear: transform retired batteries from waste into valuable resources and help close the loop across the global battery value chain.
