You can acces the key EANBarcode in the array with Object['EANBarcode'].
The same for the key name, Object['name'].

I'm not sure what you meant with using a for loop since there are many things you can do with an array and a for loop. Can you try to elaborate your question a bit more specific?

I had not heard of stdClass before your post so this is just a guess as what you have to do. You have a class named Object that contains an array. The contents of the array are also a stdClass named Object. I am not sure this is valid and would certainly say that it is not good practice because it is confusing.

What I have seen about stdClass shows that it is invoked without a formal class definition like this:

<?php
$stuff = new stdClass;
$arrayOfProductInfo = array (your array);
$data; //create variable for foreach loop
//assign values like this
$stuff->products = $arrayOfProductInfo;
//then I think you could use a foreach loop to pull info from the object.  I have not done this but I think it would work.
foreach ($stuff->products as $product) {
  $data .= $product["EANBarCode"] . " " . $product["name"] . "<br>";
}

But your stdClass is different in that it is sort of named as a class, but does not have the correct syntax as I know it. Formal class declarations are like this:

<?php
class Object {
  //class stuff here
}

My first question is whether this data is from functioning code. If so, here are some ideas for accessing the data. Again, I have not used this before, so this is just an educated guess.

<?php
$workingVar = $Object->Products;
foreach ($workingVar as $product) {
  echo $product->Object["EANBarCode"] . " " . $product->Object["name"] . "<br>";
}

I think you will run into problems since you have two "Object" stdClasses defined and neither one is defined the way I have read other stdClasses have been defined. Let me know if any of these ideas work for you.
