Christophe Duc explains why RFID in tires should be the standard. RFID in tires help support a cicular economy. Tires are given a digital product passport and stakeholders across the supply chain will be able to gain access to tire data. The sorting process of end-of-life tires (ELT) is made more efficient with RFID. Discover the future of connected tires in this lecture!

Content:
- End-of-life tires (ELT) are globally well collected. However their sorting has until now been very manual and exhausting.
- Automatization and digitalization start to drastically change that by improving ergonomics and value and supporting the development of new recycling streams. An example made at REGOM will be shared.
- RFID in tires and standard access to data will further unlock possibilities, fostered by the coming Digital Product Passport for tires in Europe, and its CIRPASS2 Pilot starting May 2024.
- There will be no circular economy in tires without RFID.
