New and revised European legislative projects increasingly rely on technical communication as an instrument to achieve the respective objectives of the regulations or directives. This applies, for example, with regard to new information requirements, documentation obligations to promote sustainable product aspects or to promote the security of products with digital elements and systems that utilise artificial intelligence. It also applies with regard to the introduction of new information products such as the Digital Product Passport. This applies, for example, to the eco-design of sustainable products, the marketing of construction products, the promotion of product repair, enableing comsumers to make informed choices with respect to sustainability aspects of products, cyber resilience and systems with artificial intelligence,
