SCAN-TO-SITE: Digital Product Passports and Embodied Carbon from Factory to Site for Off-Site Manufactured Products
Kirby Group Engineering, GS1 Ireland and University of Galway will develop and test a digital product passport (DPP) for a common offsite-manufactured data centre product. Clients increasingly ask how much carbon is emitted making and delivering such products, but this information is scattered and slow to provide. The project will map the product’s materials, manufacturing and packaging, calculate its carbon footprint and link the results to a scannable product record. It will also test whether factory-made products have lower carbon than equivalent site assembly, giving clients trustworthy carbon data and Kirby a proven method to apply across its offsite products.
