## FAQ
- Q: Does the RFID tag survive the tire vulcanization process?
  A: Yes. Our embedded tire tags are encapsulated in a high-temperature rubber compound and placed between tire plies during the building stage. They are tested to survive repeated vulcanization cycles at 170-200 °C and 15-25 bar for 12-20 minutes. Post-vulcanization read rates exceed 99.5% in factory testing. Each tag is verified individually before the green-tire moves to the cure press.
- Q: Can the tag be read on a mounted tire while on the vehicle?
  A: Yes. UHF handheld readers can read the embedded tag through the tire sidewall at 1-3 m range, even when the tire is mounted on the wheel and installed on the vehicle. Fleet maintenance technicians walk around the vehicle and scan all four tires plus the spare in under 30 seconds without dismounting any wheels.
- Q: How does RFID improve tire recall compliance?
  A: Each RFID-tagged tire carries a unique EPC linked to its DOT serial number and the registered owner (if sold through a tracked channel). When a recall is issued, the manufacturer can identify every affected tire by EPC, trace it to the retailer or fleet operator who purchased it, and verify replacement through the digital lifecycle record. This raises recall traceability from 20-30% to near 100% for RFID-tagged tires.
- Q: How does the RFID-encoded data relate to the EU 2020/740 EPREL label, the QR code on the sidewall and the EU Digital Product Passport roadmap?
  A: Three layers coexist, each serving a different audience. (1) The EU 2020/740 regulatory label — fuel-efficiency class, wet-grip class, external-rolling-noise value — is a visual / QR code information layer for consumers at point-of-sale, with underlying data held in the EPREL database maintained by the European Commission. (2) The sidewall DOT / TIN and manufacturing marking is the persistent regulatory identifier (49 CFR §574 in the US, equivalent ECE markings in EU). (3) The embedded UHF RFID tag is the machine-readable identity layer used for supply-chain traceability, OEM plant tracking, fleet telematics and retreading. On the DPP roadmap, EU ESPR 2024/1781 will progressively require tire digital-product-passport data (carbon footprint, recyclability, EUDR 2023/1115 natural-rubber origin, retreading cycle count) resolvable via GS1 Digital Link URI. Our factory can pre-encode the EPREL reference, DOT TIN and GS1 Digital Link URI into the same tag, so the RFID read resolves to the full DPP record. The regulatory labels, QR and RFID are complementary — not redundant or alternative — and all three are expected to coexist through the 2027-2030 DPP transition.
- Q: If we deploy RFID in our factory today, does that change our obligations under the US TREAD Act, NHTSA early-warning reporting or the EU CARS 2030 / type-approval regime?
  A: No — RFID deployment does not alter your statutory obligations under the TREAD Act (49 CFR §579 Early Warning Reporting, §573 defect and noncompliance reports, §574 tire identification and recordkeeping), FMVSS 139 / FMVSS 119, or the EU type-approval regime under EU 2018/858 and UNECE R117. RFID is a data-capture layer that makes compliance *easier* — specifically, it automates TIN capture, installation-retailer-of-record tracking, and recall retrieval rates — but the underlying reporting duties remain unchanged. Operationally, tire manufacturers using embedded RFID typically report improved NHTSA early-warning data quality (fewer null fields in §579 quarterly reports), faster recall execution (days to identify affected VINs instead of months), and reduced legal exposure in product-liability litigation because the manufacturing-plant and lot-traceability record is machine-captured rather than manually logged. Regulatory filings and reporting calendars are unaffected; only the efficiency and completeness of the underlying data improves.
