Registering a Digital Product Passport (DPP) for timber products via EU and UK national platforms involves aligning with both Regulation (EU) 2024/3110 and the UK Timber Regulations (UKTR). Here's how to approach it:
Under Regulation (EU) 2024/3110, timber products placed on the EU market must include a Digital Product Passport that contains:
Declaration of Performance (DoP)
Environmental Product Declaration (EPD)
Lifecycle data (including end-of-life instructions)
Sustainability and certification info (e.g. FSC, PEFC)
EPREL (European Product Registry for Energy Labelling): May be extended to include DPPs for construction products
National CPR Portals: Each EU country will host its own registry for CE-marked products and DPPs
buildingSMART Data Dictionary: Supports IFC and XML integration for BIM-linked DPPs
Since Brexit, the UK follows its own framework via the UK Timber Regulations (UKTR), which mirror the EU Timber Regulation (EUTR) but require separate compliance.
Office for Product Safety and Standards (OPSS): Oversees UKTR enforcement
DEFRA Timber Procurement Policy (TPP): Requires suppliers to prove legality and sustainability
UK Timber Trade Federation (TTF): Offers guidance and tools for compliance
