Europe is already implementing the ESPR (Eco-design for Sustainable Products Regulation) improving the circularity of products, each of them will be issued a digital product passport (DPP) allowing their life cycle to be traced.

This will affect tires which must contain an RFID, an essential component to obtain a DPP.

This RFID, in addition to guaranteeing compatibility with new European standards, will make it possible to improve all logistical aspects affecting the tyre and automobile industry and mobility more generally.

Thanks to this new agreement, Murata will be able to produce generation 4 RFID tyre tags and will have the possibility of offering the integration of RFID Tag in tyres, patented by Michelin. In the future, tyre manufacturers around the world will have access to this product which is scheduled to enter mass production after January 2025.

To facilitate uniform adoption of RFID technology within the tire industry, Murata will continue to provide tyre manufacturers with access to products based on Murata’s RFID software, id-Bridge.
