Support Your Organization’s Sustainability Initiatives

Managing sustainability data at the product level requires a structured and scalable approach. Without a clear framework, product attributes like carbon footprint, material composition, and recyclability become difficult to track, validate and report. As regulations evolve and consumer expectations grow, you need a reliable way to standardize sustainability data across your company’s entire product portfolio.

This feature provides a flexible, structured data model designed to organize, store and validate product sustainability attributes. It ensures consistency across internal teams, external partners and regulatory bodies while enabling you to manage sustainability data at scale by:

• Standardizing product sustainability attributes (e.g., carbon emissions, recyclability, energy consumption) to align with industry and regulatory frameworks.
• Supporting multi-region compliance, ensuring that product data meets sustainability requirements in different markets.
• Integrating with existing systems, such as PLM and ERP, ensuring product sustainability data remains consistent and up to date.
• Providing governed access for compliance, marketing and product development teams, enabling cross-functional collaboration and data accuracy.

With the EU Digital Product Passport (DPP) set to become a major regulatory requirement, businesses must prepare to provide structured, product-level sustainability data in a way that enhances transparency and supports the circular economy. Without a system to standardize and manage this data, meeting DPP compliance will be challenging, resulting in potential market access barriers, fines or operational inefficiencies.

This feature enables you to prepare and structure product sustainability data in line with DPP regulations. It ensures all required attributes, such as material sourcing, carbon footprint, and recyclability, are documented, enabling you to:

• Align product sustainability data with DPP requirements, ensuring seamless compliance with upcoming EU regulations.
• Automate data validation to verify that required product attributes are complete and meet regulatory standards.
• Share structured data, making sustainability information easily accessible for marketplaces, retailers and compliance bodies.

Sustainability certifications – such as Forest Stewardship Council (FSC), Fair Trade, Carbon Neutral, and Organic – serve as proof of a product’s environmental and ethical impact. However, managing these certifications at scale can be complex. Without a structured system, your organization can risk mislabeling products, failing audits or struggling to validate sustainability claims made to retailers and consumers.

This feature provides a centralized certification management system that ensures product sustainability claims are accurate, verified and consistently applied across product catalogs. You can confidently promote certified products while simplifying the process of compliance and verification by:

• Storing and tracking sustainability certifications at the product level, ensuring accurate application and reporting.
• Enabling certification validation, preventing expired or incorrect labels from being used in marketing or regulatory disclosures.
• Simplifying updates by pushing that data to external and internal sources at scale.

Managing product sustainability data is complex, requiring accuracy, consistency and traceability. As sustainability claims become more scrutinized by regulators and consumers alike, you need robust data governance to ensure product sustainability information is reliable and aligned with compliance requirements.

This feature ensures that product sustainability data is properly governed, with clear workflows and validation rules to maintain data integrity and compliance across all product lines by:

• Establishing structured governance workflows to ensure sustainability data is consistently managed across teams and systems.
• Enforcing data validation rules, preventing incomplete or inaccurate sustainability attributes from being published.
• Ensuring version control and change management, allowing you to track updates and maintain compliance over time.
