01 — Hanover
Why the product passport hits Hanover particularly hard.
Between the exhibition grounds and the Mittelland Canal sits an industrial structure that unites several ESPR priority groups at once. In the Hanover region, the Digital Product Passport mainly affects:
- Tyre industry: Hanover is the centre of the German tyre business – and tyres rank high on the ESPR working plan: the delegated act is expected for 2027. Abrasion values, material data and recycled content should be structured now.
- Automotive suppliers: The region’s supplier industry serves vehicle plants across northern Germany. In the automotive supply chain, battery passport, steel and tyre requirements converge – OEM data requests often arrive before the legal obligation.
- Machinery & steel processing: Anyone manufacturing machines and components is affected via input materials by the steel act (expected in Q4 2026) – as a data supplier and a data recipient alike.
- Agricultural technology: For agricultural-machinery manufacturers and their suppliers, the battery obligations for electrified machines apply as early as 18 Feb 2027 – with further requirements arising via steel and tyre components.

03 — FAQ
Frequently asked questions from Hanover.
Do you come to Hanover for workshops?
Yes. We are happy to run kick-offs, data audits and management workshops at your offices in Hanover or the region; ongoing project work is done remotely. That keeps the project lean yet personal.
When is the product passport for tyres really coming?
The delegated act for tyres is expected in 2027; a transition period of around 18 months typically follows. It only becomes binding upon publication – but building up material data, abrasion values and supply-chain data usually takes longer than the transition period itself.
We are an automotive supplier – is it enough to wait for the OEM?
No. OEMs pass data requirements on to their suppliers contractually, often years before the legal obligation. Those who wait for the requirements document negotiate from the defensive. Your own DPP data model makes you delivery-ready – towards every customer.
What does getting started cost?
The first consultation is free; the readiness check is a compact fixed-price package. The further scope depends on portfolio and systems and is quoted transparently after the check.
