New web service module for tyre labels

The EU Regulation for the new EU Tyre Label will come into force by the May 1, 2021. This causes many changes as well as uncertainties. For all market participants, this means short-term, complex and far-reaching adjustments in a wide variety of systems. In addition to a visual redesign of the label, there are the following changes:

• Bus/truck tyres: These tyres will also require the EU tyre label.
• QR-Code: A QR code links to the EU Product database (EPREL).
• Tyre type identifier: Below the QR code you will find the tyre type identifier which is identical to the manufacturer article number.
• Classification: The new scale ranges from A to E, tyres will be re-grouped by the manufacturers.
• Noise class: The labeling with up to three sound waves is now replaced by an ABC classification.
• Ice/snowflake pictograms: Two new pictograms (= Three-Peak-Mountain-Snowflake) and ice logo indicate winter suitability.

BMF also offers solutions in all product families due to the market request, including a stand-alone usable module in the BMF ProVis Data Webservice. “Our customers and partners can retrieve an online and offline usable tyre label within a few seconds via the tyre label module of our ProVis Data Webservice.”, explains BMF CEO Stephan Schulze. Furthermore, BMF integrates the new tyre label into all products of the ProVis series as well as the new label values into all solutions of the Datahub series. Heiko Foltys, CEO at BMF, highlights: “Existing BMF systems - whether ProVis series applications or Datahub solutions - will be adapted by us free of charge.”

The BMF team will be happy to provide you with a test access to the Data Webservice or test data sets within a few days upon request. The provision of a ProVis Data Webservice can also be realized within a few days.
