CE Offsite Manufacturing & Technology Group- Manufacturers’ Information
Chaired by Alex Small of Tata Steel, this group is looking at how we can best leverage the knowledge that sits throughout the supply chain and the manufacturing base to add more value to projects and programmes.
The landscape around digital information for construction products and manufacturers is changing. In this session we will be exploring three emerging areas: Code for Construction Product Information, Digital Product Passports and Manufacturers Information Hub.
Amanda Long from the Code for Construction Product Information Ltd, will be sharing details on how it is raising standards in construction product information and marketing and drive positive culture change in the manufacturing and supply sector in relation to product information and marketing.
Alex Small will share insight into Digital Product Passports and how they relate in the UK. In 2024 the EU introduced new regulation requiring nearly all products sold in the EU to feature a Digital Product Passport (DPP). This initiative, part of the Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation, aims to enhance transparency across product value chains by providing comprehensive information about each product’s origin, materials, environmental impact, and disposal recommendations. The DPP is designed to close the gap between consumer demands for transparency and the current lack of reliable product data. The Manufacturers Information Hub is a single, global, access point for all construction product manufacturers’ information. The project, which is a collaboration between sixteen of Europe’s largest construction product manufacturers, will significantly reduce the complexity of obtaining Digital Product Passports (DPPs), EPD/LCA data, reuse data, handover documents and data.’ Attend the session to find out how the project will help your business?
