FAQ Digital Product Passports for Furniture & Mattresses

Are Digital Product Passports mandatory for mattresses?

Yes. Mattresses are a priority product group under the ESPR and require a Digital Product Passport.

Is furniture treated the same way?

Furniture follows a phased approach, with requirements introduced through delegated acts.

Why are mattresses prioritized?

Due to material intensity, waste impact, recyclability challenges, and established EU policy focus on mattress waste streams.

What information is required?

Product identification, bill of materials, material composition, manufacturing information, durability, end-of-life instructions, and environmental indicators.

For mattresses, compliance is not optional.

For furniture, early preparation reduces future regulatory and commercial risk.
