A European digital product passport (DPP) could enhance textile industry traceability, circularity, and transparency. This study focuses on the possibility to introduce a DPP, framed within the European Union's strategy for sustainable and circular textiles. It examines the potential, needs, benefits, and challenges associated with deploying a DPP for all stakeholders throughout the European textile sector's value chain. A DPP could benefit all actors in this complex value chain, including producers, supply-chain tiers, regulatory authorities, sorters, recyclers, and consumers. To enhance EU textile industry traceability, sustainability and business strategy, identifying where added value can be generated is crucial. This research is grounded in a review of regulatory texts, scientific literature and existing initiatives, and proposes a generic DPP model for the textile sector. Drawing on a survey of over 80 stakeholders, it gathers essential insights and outlines a three-phase deployment scenario with policy options aimed at fostering a circular economy to minimise the sector's overall footprint.< Réduire
