Event Details
Join CENSIS and partners for an in-person workshop aimed at Scottish textile manufacturers and supply chain companies, diving into the evolving landscape of digitalisation for the textiles industry and Digital Product Passport (DPP) implementation.
As the EU moves towards mandatory DPPs for textile products by 2027, it’s crucial that businesses across the supply chain – including the UK and other countries outside the EU – prepare now.

What you will gain from attending
- A clear understanding of how the DPP will impact textile manufacturing
- Insights into how to align your business with upcoming regulatory requirements
- Practical advice from experts in this space
