This Recommendation aims to define an information model to describe environmental sustainability and circularity information details about ICT goods (products) in a digital form to be part of a digital product passport as environmental information, that can be compared with information requirements in relevant environmental sustainability and circularity standards, specifically ETSI standards and ITU-T Recommendations. The information details can represent products at any time of their circular lifespan: design, manufacturing, use, hardware changes, and final recycling as e-waste. Several product-related standards can be expressed as a list of environmental information templates. The matching of product information to standards information for checking the alignment of products with different standards when relevant.
