Product sustainability is becoming a condition of market access. Regulations including the EU Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR), the US Uyghur Forced Labor Prevention Act (UFLPA) and emerging Digital Product Passport requirements are raising the bar for traceability, verification and supplier data. With 79% of firms expecting to increase investment in response to new regulatory requirements, sustainability, supply chain and risk leaders need to decide where to build capability now – before compliance gaps begin to affect market access.

In this webinar, Verdantix experts Jessie Wilson and Elisa Molero will draw new data from 151 product and supply chain executives to examine how leading firms are responding to the next regulatory wave, where investment is being directed, and how organizations can turn stronger product sustainability capabilities into commercial advantage.

What you'll learn:

  • Which product sustainability regulations are creating the greatest market-access risk – and where firms should focus their readiness efforts
  • How peer organizations are investing in supplier data, verification, traceability and Digital Product Passport capabilities
  • Why traceability and verification are becoming critical across sustainability, supply chain and third-party risk programmes
  • How to prioritize product sustainability capabilities that strengthen compliance readiness while creating greater commercial value
