01
No structured product data foundation
Most fashion brands manage product information across PLM tools, spreadsheets, and supplier portals — none of which are designed to produce the structured, machine-readable lifecycle data the DPP requires. Building this from scratch when enforcement arrives will be too late.
Skyjed's Asset Register creates a structured, DPP-ready product data foundation — starting now, before enforcement deadlines.
02
Supply chain transparency obligations
CSDDD and the DPP require brands to document and evidence the environmental and social practices of their supply chains — at the product and material level. This requires traceability infrastructure most fashion brands don't currently have.
Supply chain and materials data structured within the product record — building the traceability layer CSDDD and DPP demand.
03
Greenwashing exposure
The EU Green Claims Directive requires that any sustainability claim — "sustainable", "eco-friendly", "recycled content" — is substantiated with specific, verified, documented evidence. Brands making unsubstantiated claims face enforcement action and reputational damage.
Every sustainability claim backed by structured evidence collected within the product lifecycle — verifiable, specific, and defensible.
04
Fibre and material composition documentation
The DPP requires detailed fibre composition, origin, and recycled content data for every garment — at the SKU level, not just by product category. For brands managing thousands of SKUs, maintaining this data accurately and accessibly is a significant operational challenge.
Material and fibre composition structured and version-controlled within the product record — always current, always DPP-ready.
05
End-of-life and repairability documentation
The DPP specifically requires care, repair, and end-of-life instructions to be accessible to consumers and waste operators. This information must be maintained throughout the product's commercial life — not added at the point of discontinuation.
End-of-life documentation built into the product lifecycle from launch — always accessible and always current for DPP purposes.
06
Retailer and buyer documentation demands
Major retailers and platform buyers are already requiring sustainability documentation from their suppliers — ahead of regulatory enforcement. Brands that can respond quickly and credibly will win listings that less-prepared competitors lose.
Skyjed gives brands the ability to produce comprehensive, evidenced sustainability documentation for any product, on demand.
