THE COMPLIANCE GAP

A QR code is not a Digital Product Passport.The governed record is.

A QR page can show information. It cannot prove where that information came from, whether it is current, or what changed after launch.

SURFACE LAYER ONLY

SURFACE ACCESS ONLY

Access without governance cannot prove the product record.

01 / SCAN ≠ TRACEABILITY

A scan is not traceability.

A QR-linked page can open successfully while still lacking a traceable evidence chain.

Missing

Proof · supplier-stage linkage · governed source record

02 / PAGE ≠ INFRASTRUCTURE

A polished page is not compliance infrastructure.

A passport can look complete while still lacking evidence, credential status, and machine-readable access.

Missing

Verification · credential state · audit-ready evidence

03 / STATIC ≠ FUTURE-READY

Static pages do not survive regulation.

DPP expectations will evolve. A fixed page becomes stale if the record and endpoints are not updateable.

Missing

Updateability · revocation · endpoint continuity

The passport deadline is visible.The data work starts earlier.

Textile DPPs are moving from policy into implementation. The QR page is the last mile — the harder work is building the governed record behind it: identity, evidence, impact data, credentials, and audit history.

The FairlyGreen difference

Most DPPs stitch together surfaces. FairlyGreen governs the record underneath.

A QR code can expose information. It cannot keep claims, evidence, impact data, credentials, and audit history aligned over time.

Why this matters

01
One controlled source
Identity, materials, suppliers, claims, certificates, and impact data stay governed together.
02
Evidence before publication
Claims pass evidence, validation, and scope checks before the passport goes live.
03
Human and machine aligned
The same record powers the public view, JSON-LD, credentials, registry data, and status checks.
04
Defensible after launch
Every action remains actor-attributed, timestamped, and tied to credential state.

Choose the system behind the passport — not another surface to maintain.

Record translation layer

One governed record. Fewer loose ends for every team.

FairlyGreen translates the same product truth into the outputs each team needs — impact data, claim evidence, machine-readable records, and consumer passports — without splitting the story across spreadsheets, PDFs, QR pages, and audit folders.

Sustainability

Impact stays with the product.

Materials, supplier stages, methods, and product-level impact data remain connected to the same governed record.

Method tied to identity

No stale report copies

Compliance

Every claim has a trail.

See what supports each claim, what changed since publication, and whether the passport is ready before it goes live.

The DPP architecture

Four layers. One governed source.

FairlyGreen's DPP system is not a publishing tool bolted onto a spreadsheet. It is a four-layer architecture where one governed record drives the consumer passport, proof layer, machine-readable outputs, credentials, and audit trail — from a single source of truth.

The governed record · Source of product truth

One trusted product record

Product identity, supplier tiers, material composition, claims, compliance evidence, and scope live in one trusted record — the source of truth for everything downstream. Not a spreadsheet. Not a folder of PDFs.

SKU / GTINMaterialsSupplier stagesClaimsScope

The public passport · Consumer-facing experience

A polished passport, backed by evidence

The governed record becomes a polished consumer passport with product story, impact scores, traceability, materials, care guidance, and circularity — always synchronized to the same trusted source.

Consumer viewDigital LinkImpactCareCircularity

The proof layer · Evidence behind every claim

Evidence that stands up

Certificates, supplier declarations, transformation-stage mappings, freshness signals, and compliance readiness checks stay attached to the record. Every claim has a source. Every source has a status.

The machine layer · Data systems can verify

Data that systems can verify

Structured passport data, verifiable credentials, registry metadata, status endpoints, and audit signals all draw from the same record — so the passport can be verified beyond the webpage.

JSON-LDVC-JWT (verifiable credential)RegistryStatus endpointAudit trail

Unified impact intelligence

Impact data should not live in a disconnected report.

Carbon, PEF, French Eco Score, lifecycle drivers, and method state stay attached to the same product record that powers the public passport, machine layer, and audit trail.

Disconnected impact report

The evidence layer

Claims harden as evidence attaches.

A product claim becomes stronger when it points to materials, certificates, supplier stages, impact methods, and credential status — all tied to the same record. The scan opens the passport. Evidence determines whether the claim can be trusted.

Product identity, story, and key passport context rendered from the governed record.

FairlyGreen Digital Product Passport — branded consumer surface with modules for story, impact, journey, materials, and proof.

Same product truth. Every customer-facing module traces back to the governed record — not a disconnected marketing page.

Machine-readable by design

Readable by people. Verifiable by machines.

The public passport is only one output. FairlyGreen also generates structured data, verifiable credential artifacts, registry metadata, and status checks from the same governed record — so the passport can be verified beyond the webpage.

Machine-readable passport JSON
VC-JWT credential issuance
Registry metadata sync
Active / revoked status resolution

One trusted record. Multiple verifiable outputs. No separate system to maintain.

Audit-ready by design

Every passport action leaves a defensible trail.

FairlyGreen records the actions behind the passport — evidence attached, validation passed, credential issued, status checked, and updates reviewed — so your team can answer buyer, auditor, and regulator questions with a traceable record.

A QR page can open. A governed record can answer questions.

Actor-attributed events
Product team, system, compliance officer, and reviewer actions stay separated.
Evidence and validation history
Certificates, impact results, supplier stages, and validations remain linked.
Credential issue / revoke state
Issued, active, revoked, and refreshed states stay traceable.
Exportable defensibility record
Evidence, validations, credentials, and status history package for review.

No spreadsheet archaeology. No supplier-email hunting. The passport record already knows what happened.
