Building Materials Digital Product Passport — ESPR & CPR Compliance.

How to comply with the ESPR delegated act for construction products. AI extracts CE marking data, environmental product declarations, and supply chain traceability from your existing technical documentation.

31 months to ESPR deadline

At a glance

Construction products face Digital Product Passport obligations from two converging regulations: ESPR (2024/1781), which includes construction products in its 2025–2030 working plan, and the revised Construction Products Regulation (CPR), which is currently being revised to add DPP and Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) requirements. Together these frameworks will require manufacturers of structural materials, insulation, windows, and other construction products to hold machine-readable passports covering material composition, EPD data, recycled content, and end-of-life disassembly.

  • ESPR includes construction products in the 2025–2030 priority working plan.
  • CPR revision adds Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) and DPP requirements.
  • Fields expected: material composition, recycled content, EPD data, disassembly instructions.
  • GPSR (Regulation 2023/988) also applies for construction products with safety implications.
  • First DPP obligations for construction products anticipated around 2029.

What the building materials regulations require

CE marking data

Declaration of performance, harmonised standards references, and notified body details.

Environmental product declaration

EPD data: embodied carbon, global warming potential, and lifecycle assessment results.

Material composition

Substance content including SVHC declarations, recycled content percentages, and dangerous substance classifications.

End-of-life & circularity

Disassembly instructions, recyclability rating, and hazardous substance disclosure for demolition waste handling.

Upload your EPDs, technical data sheets, CE declarations of performance, and test reports. AI extracts every required field automatically.

Your embodied carbon figures, recycled content percentages, and substance declarations update as each document is processed. You see every compliance gap before authorities do.

For your compliance team

60 minutes

First compliant DPP output with existing EPD and technical documentation.

€0 to start

Free plan covers 10 digital product passport outputs per month.

4-8 weeks

Full production rollout including supplier and distributor data collection.

Construction product categories covered

From insulation and concrete to glazing systems and structural steel — the same AI compliance engine handles every construction product category.

Structural products

Steel, concrete, timber, masonry. Load-bearing performance data, embodied carbon, CE marking.

Insulation & membranes

Thermal performance, fire classification, recycled content. EPD data extraction from PDF test reports.

Facades & glazing

U-values, solar factor, sound reduction, durability class. Full window and curtain wall DPP support.

Actively monitored: We track every ESPR delegated act update and CPR revision from the European Commission. The platform adapts as construction product requirements evolve — you do not need to track regulation changes yourself.

Supplier data compounds

When a raw material supplier submits EPD data for one product, it pre-populates for every manufacturer using the same material. Your supply chain transparency grows with every user on the platform.

Third-party verification built in

Certification bodies log into Traceable to verify your construction product compliance records directly. Evidence-linked review, immutable audit trails. No exported PDFs.

Multi-regulation ready

Building materials are one category. The same AI engine handles Battery Regulation, textile, tyre, and electronics ESPR requirements. If you manufacture across sectors, one platform covers all of them.

Building Materials DPP — Common Questions

Construction products will need a DPP under two converging frameworks: ESPR 2024/1781, which includes construction products in its 2025–2030 working plan, and the revised Construction Products Regulation (CPR). Products expected to be in scope include structural materials, insulation, windows and glazing, doors, flooring, plumbing systems, and cladding. The exact product groups will be defined in the respective delegated acts, expected from 2026 onwards.

An Environmental Product Declaration (EPD) is a standardised, third-party verified document based on ISO 14025 and EN 15804 that quantifies the environmental impact of a construction product over its lifecycle. EPD data includes global warming potential (CO₂e per kg), ozone depletion, acidification, eutrophication, resource use, and waste generation. ESPR and the CPR revision are expected to require EPD data as a mandatory DPP field for construction products.

Yes. CE marking under the current Construction Products Regulation (CPR) 305/2011 remains required for covered construction products. CE marking demonstrates conformity with harmonised technical specifications; the DPP adds a data layer for environmental and circular economy information. The CPR revision is expected to integrate DPP obligations alongside — not instead of — CE marking requirements.

The European Commission proposed a revised Construction Products Regulation in 2022. The revision introduces sustainability requirements, EPD mandates, and DPP obligations for construction products. As of 2025, the revised CPR is moving through trilogue between the Commission, Parliament, and Council. Final adoption is expected around 2025–2026, with a transition period before mandatory application — meaning DPP obligations for construction products are expected to apply from approximately 2029.

Yes. EU General Product Safety Regulation 2023/988 applies to all non-food consumer products, including construction products that are sold to consumers. Building materials sold through retail channels (DIY stores, online marketplaces) must meet GPSR requirements — product information files, traceability obligations, and economic operator identification. Professional-only construction products may have a narrower GPSR scope, but consumer-accessible products are fully in scope.
