Being quiet, noise from tyres is much more intrusive in electric vehicles, so it makes sense for electric vehicle owners to purchase tyres with a lower external rolling noise rating.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-33121 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/www.tyretrade.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/tyres_webnews_final.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"1000\" height=\"557\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.tyretrade.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/tyres_webnews_final.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.tyretrade.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/tyres_webnews_final-300x167.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.tyretrade.ie\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/09\/tyres_webnews_final-768x428.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>The EU tyre label format shown above came into effect in May 2021. The tyre label applies to C1 (passenger car), C2 (van<br \/>\nand light truck) and C3 (heavy truck) tyres. A product information sheet must also be provided.<\/p>\n<p>Further changes to the label are expected in the future to provide motorists with additional information regarding tyre abrasion and mileage to help reduce microplastics in the environment.<\/p>\n<p>There are different obligations for tyre suppliers, tyre distributors and vehicle suppliers and distributors as to how they must display or provide the label and provide product information sheet in outlets.<\/p>\n<p>However, as a general principle the customer must get to see the tyre label before the tyre is sold to them. The guide provides further detail regarding what you must do in various different scenarios.<\/p>\n<p>Tyre suppliers and tyre distributors must also provide certain information when advertising tyres, selling tyres online, selling through catalogues, telesales and in technical promotional materials.<\/p>\n<p>In addition, tyre suppliers must enter information into the European Product Database for Energy Labelling (EPREL). This database has been set up to provide important energy efficiency information for various products (including tyres) to consumers and to facilitate market surveillance activities and enforcement.<\/p>\n<p>You can find more information on product registration by <a href=\"https:\/\/ec.europa.eu\/info\/energy-climate-change-environment\/standards-tools-and-labels\/products-labelling-rules-and-requirements\/energy-label-and-ecodesign\/product-database_en\">clicking here.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>SEAI undertakes market surveillance in relation to tyres to ensure compliance with the EU Tyre Labelling Regulation. Each year, SEAI assesses the compliance of several websites and advertisements and laboratory tests a number of tyres to ensure that the information shown on the label is correct. SEAI also inspects tyre retail outlets to ensure they are complying with the regulations.<\/p>\n<p>Later this year, SEAI says it intends to undertake market surveillance of tyres using customs information to ensure tyres imported from outside the EU are compliant with the EU Tyre Labelling Regulation.
