ECHT is an Interreg NWE-funded project that brings together organizations from across the North-West Europe (NWE) region and beyond. Its goal is to help key players in two major sectors—textile clothing and carpets—establish chemical traceability as a foundation for the Circular Economy and prepare for the introduction of the Digital Product Passport.

To learn more about the project, please refer to the dedicated section about ECHT.

The ECHT Knowledge Platform is a structured digital space that provides neutral information and resources to help users understand and build capacity to implement chemical traceability and the Digital Product Passport (DPP), targeting companies and supporting stakeholders.

It aims to give advice on the concrete implementation, leading to more transparency and less harmful chemicals in products.

The hosted resources are based on existing knowledge and enhanced during the Interreg ECHT project. Specific resources will result from two pilot actions (one focused on textile clothing and one on the carpet sector).

Being technology neutral, ECHT aims to fill a gap hampering the implementation of DPP/traceability, as information available is usually bound on a specific DPP format/provider.
