Create a digital product passport
You are a product manufacturer and you would like to list your products in the Upcyclea Net-0 platform's digital passport database . This guide will guide you step by step through the creation of your manufacturer product passport.
1. The manufacturer's digital product passport
A manufacturer's digital product passport is used to characterize a real product placed on the market by a manufacturer. It contains key information such as its composition, current use, prospects for reuse or recycling, and possibly its environmental data (EPD, FDES, etc.).
Digital manufacturer passports are also used by other stakeholders on the Upcyclea Net-0 platform to identify the products present in their buildings and promote them as reusable resources. The data entered in the passports, once linked to deposits, is used by the platform's algorithms to automatically generate circularity indicators and suggest reuse opportunities.
The digital manufacturer passports are then accessible in the Upcyclea passport library , and can be used to nourish circular ecosystems.
2. The stages of creation
- Request the opening of your manufacturer account on Upcyclea Net-0 by clicking here .
- Activate your account by setting your access password.
- Log in to your manufacturer area, click on “Create a new product passport” then select MANUFACTURER product passport .
- Check out the video tutorial or the 📄 PDF entry guide to help you fill out the manufacturer's digital product passport.
- Start entering your passports on the Upcyclea Net-0 platform.
Once the passport is completed, you have several options:
- Save the passport as a draft, in order to complete or modify the information later.
- Publish the passport on Upcyclea Net-0: A quality control check is then performed by the Upcyclea team. If all the information is correctly entered, the passport will be published and made accessible in the passport library.
- Request verification by Upcyclea: This allows your product to be evaluated based on environmental criteria. Supporting documents can be added, and pictograms will be automatically assigned to your passport based on the validated criteria.

3. Manufacturer's passport rating
To benefit from the rating of your MANUFACTURER product digital passports via the allocation of pictograms, two possibilities are available to you:
- You have a manufacturer subscription (Basic, Standard, or Premium). This allows you to have a certain number of your product passports evaluated directly on the Upcyclea Net-0 platform.
- A rating token has been provided to you by a user subscribed to Upcyclea Net-0. This token (consisting of 9 digits) allows you to have a manufacturer's product passport evaluated free of charge as part of a project. It must be entered directly on the platform when publishing the passport.
