Iron, steel, aluminium, and construction products are among the earliest industrial sectors targeted by EU ESPR and the revised Construction Products Regulation (CPR).
Quick Summary
Iron, steel, and aluminium are top-priority intermediate products under EU ESPR (2024/1781), requiring embodied carbon footprint, recycled scrap share, Declaration of Performance (DoP) links, and machine-readable JSON-LD / UNTP data.
Key DPP data points for construction & metals
Embodied carbon footprint
Cradle-to-gate CO₂e per tonne or unit for CBAM and ESPR alignment.
Recycled content share
Pre-consumer and post-consumer recycled metal or aggregate percentages.
Compliance & DoP
Structured CE marking and technical performance references.
Machine-readable UNTP
JSON-LD & UNTP v0.5 exports for B2B procurement and BIM workflows.
FAQ
Why are steel and aluminium early ESPR priorities?
Because of their high carbon intensity and central role in EU industrial decarbonisation, iron and steel are among the first delegated acts drafted under ESPR.
Can B2B suppliers export JSON-LD for contractors?
Yes. DPPify exports every passport in W3C JSON-LD, UNTP v0.5, and CSV formats.
