    1. Select the Digital Product Passport located at the Recycler

    2. Then select “Go to Issuing Page” to open a form to create a DPP for a recycled battery. The process is the same for any DPP on this map.

  3. Click on “Submit” at the bottom of the page and you will have issued your Digital Product Passport for a Recycled Battery.

    1. In order to view the newly created DPP, a pop up in the upper right hand corner of the screen will show for you to select “Open VC.”
