Booost Launches 'booost DPP'

In a significant move towards enhancing sustainability, Booost Inc., a leading sustainability-focused company based in Shinagawa, Tokyo, has launched a new solution called 'booost DPP' (Digital Product Passport). This initiative aims to assist companies in effectively complying with stringent EU product regulations that will take effect in 2026.

What is booost DPP?

The 'booost DPP' is a comprehensive solution designed to facilitate the collection, management, generation, publication, and access rights management of product and supply chain information. As new regulations are formulated across various product sectors, Booost is committed to expanding the functionalities of the DPP to meet these evolving requirements.

Beginning August 2026, the DPP will focus on a variety of products including batteries, primary steel products, textiles, and construction materials. The goal of the DPP is to tie essential information such as raw materials, environmental performance, and data on repair, reuse, and recycling to the product digitally. This capability allows consumers and relevant stakeholders, including repair and recycling organizations, to access critical product information according to their roles.

The Context of DPP Development

The foundation of traditional product traceability mainly revolved around tracking raw material sourcing and the manufacturing and distribution history. However, DPP goes beyond this by requiring the continuous collection and management of detailed product information and greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions data throughout the supply chain.

Users will need access to up-to-date information even after the product has entered the market, necessitating a robust system that can handle everything from information collection to DPP generation and publication. Recognizing this, Booost has crafted 'booost DPP' to satisfy these comprehensive needs.

Structure and Features of booost DPP

The 'booost DPP' comprises two key systems: the DPP Management System (DMS) and the DPP Publish System (DPS). The DMS gathers vital information such as raw materials, GHG emissions, and recyclability by tracing the supply chain. Once the data is collected, the DMS can issue the DPP and generate a QR code tied to the product ID. Manufacturers can then attach this QR code onto their product packaging, making it ready for consumer access.

The DPS is designed for end users, including consumers and recyclers, providing access to the DPP via QR code scanning.

Key Features Include:

• - Product information management
• - Environmental impact assessment capability
• - Supplier information request functionality
• - DPP publication features (QR code generation)
• - DPP historical management
• - Content protection for DPP
• - Data immutability assurance
• - Documentation output for certification authorities
• - Future API support for DPP Registry integration

This innovative solution is designed to seamlessly integrate with Booost’s existing products, ensuring compliance with international sustainability standards, including WBCSD/PACT specifications. It will facilitate the secure and efficient flow of data among enterprises.

Commitment to Future Sustainability

Booost plans to further enhance 'booost DPP' and its accompanying functionalities to streamline compliance with EU regulations, including CBAM and ESPR. This initiative not only supports compliance but also transforms sustainability data into a crucial business asset, contributing to the enhancement of corporate value and global business operations for Japanese firms.

In conclusion, 'booost DPP' is not just a product but a comprehensive solution aiming at promoting transparency and traceability throughout the supply chain, ultimately advancing sustainability in the corporate sector.
