Empower

Empower's core offerings (material traceability, Digital Product Passports, Plastic Credits, Deposit App) are explicitly designed to enable circular economy outcomes such as traceability, compliant recycling and impact verification (Source: Empower.eco, 2025).

SupportEnabler: provides SaaS, APIs and DPP infrastructure used by brands, recyclers and collectors. DirectEnabler: operates a plastic credits marketplace and coordinates cleanups/impact programmes (direct facilitation). Both roles are evidenced on the site; classification as both reflects dual functionality (Source: Empower.eco, 2025).

Empower's product suite centres on Digital Product Passports and blockchain material traceability - the product pages explicitly describe a DPP offering and traceability platform (Source: Empower.eco, 2025).

Primary: site emphasises Digital Product Passports and supply‑chain traceability (supporting reuse/resale R3) and recycling/resource recovery via plastic credits and traceability (R8). Secondary: testimonials and DPP use cases reference refurbishment tracking (R5) and material efficiency/traceability (R2). These are inferred from product descriptions and case studies on the site (Source: Empower.eco, 2025).

Empower explicitly offers Plastic Credits and Deposit App functionality and supports EPR/take‑back workflows and material traceability, which directly support recycling/resource recovery and take‑back schemes. This was inferred from product pages and service descriptions (Source: Empower.eco, 2025).

The site and footer identify the legal entity as 'Empower AS' (a for‑profit company) and include company contact details (Source: Empower.eco, 2025).

Empower's product pages and About section focus on waste collection, recycling, traceability and plastic credits indicating a primary focus on waste management and recycling (Source: Empower.eco, 2025).

The website states Empower software is used around the world and references '51 active markets' and 30+ countries supported; corroborated by external listings (Crunchbase, Extreme Tech Challenge) showing Oslo HQ and international activity (Source: Empower.eco, 2025).

No hardware products are described on the public site; functionality is presented as software (blockchain platform, apps, APIs, QR tracking) rather than physical devices (Source: Empower.eco, 2025).
