The reuse.id® whitepaper

The research behind the Open Data Standard for reusable packaging — how it was built, what it defines, and what it unlocks for reuse systems.

What's inside

  • Why item-level data is the missing infrastructure for reuse at scale
  • What the reuse.id® standard defines: identity, attributes, lifecycle events and permissions
  • How the standard was developed with Innovate UK funding and industry partners
  • How verified reuse data supports EPR reporting and Digital Product Passports

reuse.id® is open and free to implement. We share this research so operators, brands and standards bodies can build reuse systems that talk to each other.
