  • EU ESPR & DPP: What Scarf Importers Must Know for 2026
    Apr 13 2026

    In April 2026, EU pilot audits at the Port of Rotterdam detained hundreds of textile shipments. The reason? Missing Digital Product Passport (DPP) data under the new Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR).


    This episode breaks down exactly what scarf importers and textile suppliers need to know:


    - Why a physical "100% Merino Wool" label is no longer enough

    - Tier 3 traceability: RWS Transaction Certificates and fiber origin

    - Tier 2 compliance: REACH Annex XVII and OEKO-TEX Annex 6

    - Tier 1 audits: BSCI/SMETA social compliance

    - How AEO certification cuts customs delays by over 90%


    If you export scarves or textiles to the European Union, this is the episode you need to hear before your next shipment.


    Based on the technical guide from WeaveEssence.
