Inspectorio and Eon formed a partnership to help brands build and roll out Digital Product Passports (DPPs), featuring a linked flow of supply-chain records and serialized digital IDs. Inspectorio brings an AI-powered supply chain platform while Eon supplies enterprise digital ID infrastructure and the customer-facing product cloud that surfaces passport details.
Inspectorio supplies product, material, supplier, traceability, compliance and sustainability records and Eon assigns and manages unique digital identifiers tied to each item and the interface through which passport data is shared with consumers, regulators and circular partners. The companies created a direct integration so information held in Inspectorio can pass into Eon’s product cloud without repeated manual transfer across systems.
For consumers, DPPs promise clearer proof of authenticity, quality and sustainability at the item level. For brands, the pairing helps stitch together audited data from Tier 1 through Tier 4 suppliers and aims to move fragmented pilots into integrated programs capable of supporting very large, global inventories ahead of the 2028/29 compliance timeline.
