OrigoVero: a per-unit Digital Product Passport that makes reuse, repair and recycling trustworthy
OrigoVero™ (a platform by Grigolato.IT) is a Digital Product Passport platform built for the EU's Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR) and adjacent sector rules, including the EU Battery Regulation, the wine e-label and future textile, toy, packaging and construction requirements.
Unlike model-level solutions, OrigoVero gives each individual unit its own passport using a dual-factor QR and NFC data carrier on the product itself. Each passport gives the unit's origin, its journey and custody across the actors that handled it, its environmental and material information, and its compliance data. A brand publishes a passport once; consumers, repairers, recyclers and market-surveillance authorities then read the same record directly from the physical item.
By anchoring each unit's provenance and lifecycle events to an independent, tamper-evident record, OrigoVero turns a compliance obligation into usable circular economy infrastructure: downstream actors can trust what a product is and where it has been, a prerequisite for confident reuse, repair, refurbishment and high-value recycling. The same evidence trail helps prevent counterfeiting and greenwashing, protecting both consumers and honest producers.
OrigoVero's website provides details on issues such as what DPPs do, the ESPR and the difference between unit-level and batch-level DPPs.
- As of July 2026, OrigoVero is live and in pilot use in food and drink (wine), with demonstrator deployments spanning textiles, electronics and logistics.
- A brand can issue a per-unit passport in minutes and display it through a single QR code and NFC data carrier that works for consumers, logistics partners, recyclers and authorities alike.
- The platform is available in 19 languages, including 13 of the 24 official EU languages plus major non-EU languages. This lowers the adoption barrier for smaller producers across the single market.
- By making each unit's provenance and lifecycle events independently checkable, OrigoVero supports reuse, repair and recycling and provides an evidence trail against counterfeiting and greenwashing. OrigoVero is a CIRPASS-2 Community of Practice partner.
