IOTA Foundation and Digimarc have introduced Digital Product Passports (DPPs) to enhance transparency in plastic recycling. The initiative uses distributed ledger technology (DLT) to track the recycling journey of plastics, promoting a circular economy. The DPP prototype solution records data on the lifecycle of plastic waste, from disposal to transformation into new products. This innovative approach aims to increase recycling rates and reduce environmental impact.
