  • speira.ID sets a new standard in transparency
  • Digital Product Passport provides all essential details about each unique coil in one place 


Grevenbroich, 12 January 2026
– Speira is pioneering the industry and sets a new standard in transparency. speira.ID, the Digital Product Passport provides all essential details about each unique coil in one place – from carbon footprint and recycled content to chemical composition and input mix. Simple, precise, and above all: authentic.

“We are driven by our purpose to build a circular world that works. Our commitment to sustainability goes beyond the decarbonization of our products – it also includes full transparency in all our production processes and business operations,” explains Hendrik Heck. “Our Speira culture shapes the way we work internally and with our partners and valued customers. This way of working enables us to stay one step ahead in terms of sustainable solutions and ESG compliance,” so Speira’s Head of Strategic Projects and Digital Transformation.

In detail, speira.ID shows for each specific coil its origin (casthouse, casting date, batch number, rolling mill), its overall recycled content, its carbon footprint in kg CO2 per kg Al, its input mix (shares of e.g. used beverage cans, post-consumer scrap, pre-consumer scrap, internal ORBIS scrap, alloys and alloys recycled, runaround scrap, and prime metal), and its chemical composition.

speira.ID provides a milestone in traceability and unlocks unparalleled insights. After logging in Speira’s customer portal, the customer selects a specific coil and downloads its speira.ID. For maximum convenience, mass downloads are quick and easy. Thanks to an integrated data flow, all information is always up to date and instantly available. This service can be integrated into the customer’s supply agreement – delivering maximum transparency and efficiency.

With the customer’s consent, a light version of the Digital Product Passport is available online and can be accessed easily via a QR code which can be e.g. printed on the finished product. No credentials needed, just one scan delivers transparency to our customers and theirs, driving trust along the value chain. “We truly believe that this is a level of transparency that our customers want, that we are willing to provide, and that will soon be standard in traceability, accountability, and stewardship. Acknowledging that, our data creates trust,” explains Heck.

So to sum up, what makes speira.ID such a milestone?

  • End-to-end data flow: Instead of isolated systems, speira.ID connects the entire value chain – from the production to the finished product. This makes it easier to return materials to the recycling process because their composition is known. It’s a real step towards a circular economy.
  • Digital identity for every product: Each coil and each sheet is provided with a unique Digital Product Passport that bundles all relevant data. This enables transparency and traceability in real time.
  • Future-proof service offering: Companies will have to provide more proof of sustainability, origin, and CO2 emissions. speira.ID means no more paperwork, less administrative effort, but compliance and improved reporting.
