Embeddable Tire Tagging since day one

An RFID tire tag is a small, embedded device in a tire that uses radio frequency identification (RFID) technology to track, monitor, and manage tires throughout their lifecycle. These tags provide digital twins for tires and offer seamless integration with fleet management systems and other tracking applications.

At Hana RFID, we’re redefining RFID technology for the tire industry, creating innovative solutions that promote a circular economy across manufacturing, distribution, sales, and repairs. Our embeddable RAIN RFID tire tags empower businesses to streamline processes throughout the supply chain, delivering new efficiencies and insights for a sustainable future. Partnering with leaders like Impinj, NXP, and ASYGN, we produce RFID tags that meet rigorous quality and reliability standards, trusted by major tire manufacturers worldwide.

As industries evolve through digitization and legislation, we stand at the forefront of tire-tag technology with our Linkless (Rev4/Tag4) and Direct Attached tagging solutions. Designed to work seamlessly with or without sensing capabilities, enabling digital twins of each tire prepared for new regulations like the DPP (Digital Product Passport) in Europe. With expertise honed through development partnerships with Goodyear and Michelin since day one (2005), Hana RFID leads the field in high-performance tire tagging for diverse applications—from OTR to racing. Join us and drive innovation in embeddable tire tagging.

Use Cases

Embeddable RFID tire tagging is the key to a smarter, more connected tire ecosystem. When used with an industry-standard data format, RFID-embedded tires unlock new possibilities across manufacturing, logistics, fleet management, and recycling. By enabling seamless tracking and data-sharing, they drive efficiency in tire lifecycle management—from production to end-of-life recycling. As regulatory frameworks like the European Digital Product Passport (DPP) take shape, RFID ensures compliance, future-proofing your operations for the next era of sustainability and traceability.

Logistics & Inventory Management

RFID tagging streamlines tire shipment inspections and inventory management by significantly reducing manual workload. With real-time data updates and seamless sharing across locations, RFID also enhances visibility into tire deliveries, ensuring better tracking and operational efficiency.

Recycling/Disposed Tire Management

RFID enhances sorting efficiency, improving tire reusability by accurately tracking potential scrap tires and categorizing them for retreading, recycling, or disposal. By providing clear visibility into their status (and contents), it supports environmentally responsible reuse/recycling and a more sustainable tire lifecycle.

Tire Check/Maintenance

RFID simplifies tire maintenance by enabling paperless tracking of air pressure, tread depth, and mounted tires, reducing the workload for on-site workers. It also streamlines ownership management, making seasonal tire changeovers—such as winter and summer swaps—more efficient and organized.

OEM/Automotive Production Line

RFID ensures that new vehicles receive the correct tires in the proper positions, preventing mismatches during assembly. By recording key data such as manufacturing dates, lot numbers, and expiration dates, it also simplifies recall management, enabling quick identification of affected tires.

Retreading

With reuse being a key driver of sustainability, RFID tags provide essential tire product information needed for retreading, ensuring accuracy and efficiency. They also enable seamless recording of retreading applications, supporting a more sustainable and traceable tire lifecycle.

Tire/Wheel Assembly

RFID enables seamless tuning of tire and wheel/TPMS combinations, ensuring optimal performance and compatibility. Additionally, it enhances quality control by providing a reliable way to verify the specifications and condition of tires before shipment, helping manufacturers and suppliers maintain high standards and consistency.

RFID in Racing

As the demand for tire traceability and quality pedigree rose, some of the first real-world applications of our embeddable tire tags emerged in the high-performance world of racing—where precision, reliability, and data-driven insights make all the difference. Since 2006, our technology has been used in NASCAR, followed by the British Touring Car Championship in 2008, Formula E in 2014, MotoGP in 2016, and other elite racing categories.

A step by step approach

Embedding an RFID tag in a tire requires careful design to account for the rubber materials and internal metals used, along with enhanced communication characteristic evaluations. Backed by over 20 years of experience and successful implementations in tires used under extreme conditions, we bring deep expertise and knowledge to support your needs. With our hands-on approach we guide you along the way, ensuring reliable and efficient RFID solutions. We call this “Serviced by experience.”

Digital Product Passport (DPP)

Stay ahead. Get ready for the new European regulations

Get ready for the future of product traceability with the upcoming European Digital Product Passport (DPP) regulations. Designed to collect and share data about a product and its entire supply chain, DPPs provide valuable insights into the materials used and their environmental impacts. As a key action under the Circular Economy Action Plan (CEAP) and the Ecodesign for Sustainable Products Regulation (ESPR), DPPs will become mandatory for a wide range of regulated products—spanning textiles, construction materials, tires, electric vehicle batteries, and more. Stay ahead of the curve and ensure your products are ready for this transformative shift toward sustainability and transparency.
