European foreword
This document (prEN 17988-6:2023) has been prepared by Technical Committee CEN/TC 466
“Circularity and recyclability of fishing gear and aquaculture equipment”, the secretariat of which is
held by NEN.
This document is currently submitted to the CEN Enquiry.
EN 17988 consists of the following parts, under the general title Circular design of fishing gear and
aquaculture equipment:
— Part 1: General requirements and guidance
— Part 2: User manual and labelling
— Part 3: Technical requirements
— Part 4: Environmental and circularity requirements and guidelines
— Part 5. Circular business models
— Part 6. Digitalization of gear and components.
This document has been prepared under a mandate given to CEN by the European Commission and
the European Free Trade Association, and supports essential requirements of EU Directive(s).

Introduction
Directive (EU) 2019/904 of the European Parliament and of the Council on the reduction of the
impact of certain plastic products on the environment lays down rules on different plastic products,
including fishing gear and aquaculture equipment containing plastics and sets requirement to the
Member States to establish Extended Producer Responsibility schemes (EPR schemes).
In accordance with Article 8(9) of the Directive, in 2021 the Commission Implementing Decision
M/574 on a standardization request (mandate M/574) to the European Committee for
Standardization as regards circular design of fishing gear aquaculture equipment in support of
Directive (EU) 2019/904 was approved.
Based on the mandate, a standard with 6 parts and a technical report (TR) on terms and definitions
has been developed by CEN/TC 466.
The purpose of this series of documents is to provide the stakeholders with requirements and
guidelines to address the different aspects of circular design of fishing gear and aquaculture
equipment, including encourage preparing for reuse and facilitate recyclability at end-of-life. The
standard parts are developed not only to support the Single Use Plastics directives (SUP), but the
Port Reception Facilities directive and the Extended Producer Responsibility, (ERP), as well.
The standard parts specify requirements and guidance for the circular design of fishing gear and
aquaculture equipment containing plastics that could be applied in the design, manufacturing, use
and recycling of such fishing gear/equipment.
To get a broader understanding of the legislative and policy background, see regulations commission
implementing regulation (EU) No 404/2011 of 8 April 2011.
NOTE EU 404/2011 is laying down detailed rules for the implementation of Council Regulation (EC) No
1224/2009 establishing a Community control system for ensuring compliance with the rules of the Common
Fisheries Policy, in particular: TITLE II general conditions for access to waters and resources CHAPTER III
Marking and identification of EU fishing vessels and their gear Section 2 Marking and identification of fishing
gear and crafts from art 8 to art 17.
Digitalization in the fishing gear/aquaculture equipment is not about whether product and services
are physical or information based, it is merely about the manner in which value chain operations and
processes are managed with a wide variety of emerging technologies.
Digital transformation is characterized by the European Commission (EC) as “a fusion of advanced
technologies and the integration of physical and digital systems, the predominance of innovative
business models and new processes, and the creation of smart products and services” (European
Commission, 2017).
Currently there is confusion between digital transformation, digitalization and digitization of
conceptual terms:
• Digital transformation (Business level) – change the strategy business model and customer
experience:
o Digital data.
o Automation.
o Integration between suppliers and customers.
oSIST prEN 17988-6:2023
prEN 17988-6:2023 (E)
o Digital Customer Access.
• Digitalization (Process level): emerging technologies’ use to transform processes.
• Digitization (Data level) data conversion from analogue to digital form.
Therefore, to transform the business model digitally value chain processes, digitalization and data
digitizing are necessary but insufficient. Further, other elements need to be considered, such as data
integrity.
Digitalization can connect end-to-end value chain processes at various levels. First within a location
then between locations and ultimately across the whole value chain to deliver greater value creation.
An increased use of digital technologies is crucial to shifting the linear and functional design of fishing
gear and aquaculture equipment management towards more sustainable circular design. Such
technologies improve mechanical, chemical and thermochemical recycling, facilitating the use of
recyclates by producers, enabling better purchasing and sorting decisions and improving waste
avoidance options for recyclers.
Advanced digitalization in recycle management and treatment is currently mostly in the innovation
phase. New business models, such as e-trading platforms, and specific software and business
analytics are emerging.
Digital technologies can be found across the whole life cycle of the value chain process, with some
already in widespread use. The current situation in Europe, however, is heterogeneous, with
different technologies being applied at various scales.
This document, part 6 of the standard, specifies requirements for the hardware, software and
systems for digitalization of product information of circular designed fishing gear and aquaculture
equipment. It is structured as follow:
• Clause 4 of this document outlines the general requirements and guidance for digitalized
information of fishing gear and aquaculture equipment.
• Clause 5 reviews the fishing gear and aquaculture equipment labelling options with focus on
coded wire tags, radio frequency identification tags and Automatic Identification and Data
Capture, and Data Exchange approaches and standards.
• Clause 6 addresses traceability requirements and options
• Clause 7 addresses software requirements and options.
• Clause 7 addresses issues related to access to data.
• Clause 7 addresses issues related to ownership of data.
• Clause 10 addresses IP sensitive and proprietary information.
• Clause 11 addresses issues related to interoperability and data standards.
• Clause 12 address implementation of digital solutions.
The specification of how to identify and uniformly label gear and equipment to ensure traceability of
components throughout their life cycle is covered in part 2 of the standard.

To understand how part 6 relates to the other parts of this standard series, and to understand how
the standard series relate to different stakeholders over the life cycle of gear and equipment product,
see part 1 – General requirements and guidance.
The focus of this document is on digitalization related to circularity. It does not address other
important environmental aspects, efficiency, etc. To be practical and efficient digitalized systems will
cover all aspects of importance. When implementing the requirements and guidance in these
standard parts, balanced trade-offs to other environmental issues therefore need to be taken into
account.
This multipart standard also intends to facilitate organizations in contributing to the UN
Sustainability Development Goals, SDG 9 I
