Experience Digital Product Passport live: RATHGEBER Group at the GS1 EXCHANGE 2026
24.03.2026From claim to solution: The RATHGEBER Group brings the Digital Product Passport to life at GS1 EXCHANGE 2026.

How does regulation become real practice? The RATHGEBER Group will be presenting answers to this question at GS1 EXCHANGE: Digital Product Passport 2026 in Cologne. The focus of the presentation is smart-TEC, the specialist for intelligent marking solutions within the Group.
As a GS1 solution partner, smart-TEC will be presenting specific solutions relating to the Digital Product Passport (DPP) - from RFID, NFC and 2D coding to seamless digital connectivity. The aim: to make products uniquely identifiable and reliably link them with digital information - standard-compliant, scalable and future-proof.
From claim to implementation
Instead of theory, the GS1 EXCHANGE focuses on real application scenarios. In live demonstrations, the smart-TEC team will show how a Digital Product Passport can be created in just a few minutes and linked directly to a label - clearly, practically and tangibly.
Solutions that combine brand and function
The cross-industry portfolio from smart-TEC ranges from smart-LABEL applications to robust metal labels and DPP-capable brand emblems. The RATHGEBER Group also contributes its comprehensive labeling and brand expertise - from the selection of suitable labeling technology to high-quality, brand-appropriate implementation. The IDconnect software forms the digital foundation for DPP templates, GS1 Digital Link and the structured maintenance of product information.
Our mission: Not only to prepare companies for new requirements, but also to work in partnership with them during implementation - pragmatically, efficiently and on an equal footing.
Meet us at GS1 EXCHANGE 2026 and experience the Digital Product Passport in practice.
