The disclosure is accurate as far as anyone checked. Nobody checked.
The EU Digital Product Passport framework mandates verified product data across expanding industries: batteries (2026), textiles, electronics, chemicals, and built environment through 2030. CSRD applies to approximately 5,000 companies from financial years starting 2027. Carbon accounting is moving from voluntary to compulsory. Penalties under EU Directive 2024/825 reach up to 4% of annual turnover.
Severe greenwashing incidents rose 30% in the year to June 2024, even as total incidents fell 12%. Current digital product passport systems sit at Level 2 of the KiVerify™ Proof Ladder™, confirming that data fields are populated and internally consistent, not that the underlying physical facts hold.
Compliance & ESG
KiVerify is built for the enforcement regime, not the pre-enforcement period. Independent, human-attested, tamper-resistant records meet the regulatory standard that is coming, where the capital stack and regulators require proof rather than assertion.
