Home Appliances
Verified authenticity and a full service history for every appliance you ship.
QR + NFCDPP
The challenge
Home appliances move through long distributor and retail networks where counterfeit spare parts, refurbished units resold as new, and grey-market diversion erode brand trust and safety. Buyers cannot easily confirm whether a washing machine, oven or refrigerator is genuine, in warranty, or carrying certified components. Returns and resale fraud add cost, while regulators demand verifiable energy, repair and recycling data across the product lifecycle.
The SealTrust answer
SealTrust assigns each appliance a secure cryptographic identity anchored on-chain, so authenticity, warranty status and ownership can be checked in seconds by a scan. The same identity carries a Digital Product Passport covering energy class, spare parts, repair manuals and end-of-life instructions. Lifecycle events are recorded against the unit and readable in its history, cutting refurbished-as-new fraud and supporting legitimate resale.
What you get
1
Instant authenticity and warranty verification at point of sale and service
2
Per-unit service, repair and ownership history that surfaces refurbished-as-new and grey-market resale
3
Centralised energy, repair and recycling data ready for EU reporting
QR or NFC for this vertical
Recommended method: QR + NFC
QR code is recommended for this cost-sensitive, high-volume category; add cryptographic NFC where tamper-evidence or premium positioning justifies it.
Where it goes on the product
Printed or laser-etched QR on the rating plate, or an NFC tag laminated behind the control panel or door frame.
The Digital Product Passport for this vertical
Electronics and household appliances are an ESPR priority group, but no delegated act creating a passport for them has been adopted yet; a future act is expected to cover energy efficiency, reparability, spare-parts availability and recycling data. SealTrust structures and serves this passport directly from each unit's verified identity.
Understand the Digital Product PassportRegulatory milestones
ESPR: electrical & electronic equipment (EEE)
Expected: act not publishedDeadline : Repairability score measure targeted around 2027, recyclability requirements around 2029 (indicative: each obligation starts only once its act is adopted).
No passport field list to comply with yet, and none should be invented. The preparation that holds regardless: unique product identity, structured materials / conformity / repairability data, and a durable data carrier, so the delegated act lands in an existing structure.
Statuses and dates come from our regulation radar: real texts only, flagged as indicative when they are.

How does SealTrust prove authenticity in this vertical?
SealTrust assigns each appliance a secure cryptographic identity anchored on-chain, so authenticity, warranty status and ownership can be checked in seconds by a scan. The same identity carries a Digital Product Passport covering energy class, spare parts, repair manuals and end-of-life instructions. Lifecycle events are recorded against the unit and readable in its history, cutting refurbished-as-new fraud and supporting legitimate resale.
What is the real regulatory deadline?
No ESPR delegated act creating a passport for EEE exists today. Electronics is handled horizontally in the 2025-2030 working plan. Repairability score measure targeted around 2027, recyclability requirements around 2029 (indicative: each obligation starts only once its act is adopted).
