  1. Global Technical RegulationMarking for Tyres Presentation for WP.29/AC.3 Informal document No. WP.29-151-03, agenda item 20 WP.29, June 2010 T h e E u r o p e a n T y r e a n d R i m T e c h n i c a l O r g a n i s a t i o n

  2. Objectives The certification mark must be: Simple The simpler the better (one letter or symbol and a certification number) Can be combined with or placed near to the tyre identification number (TIN) Must satisfy authorities who want visual indication of its certification status on tyre Universal Must be valid for type approval under 1958 Agreement So letter E would be replaced by new symbol or pictogram Must be valid for type approval for 1998 Agreement countries So local/regional marks would be replaced by new symbol or pictogram Must be valid for self-certification So current USA DOT mark, for example, would be replaced by new symbol or pictogram WP.29, June 2010 T h e E u r o p e a n T y r e a n d R i m T e c h n i c a l O r g a n i s a t i o n

  3. Simplicity GTR Marking and Tyre Identification Number XXXXXXX Type Approval Number [7 digits] G New GTR Global Pictogram Without optional country code subscript [Actual pictogram To Be Determined] YYY Plant Code [increased from 2 to 3 digits] MMMMMMMM Manufacturer’s Code [Combines current size and type codes] DDDD Four Digit Date Code Space _ [6mm – 19mm] – Administrative component of GTR certification mark Option1: XXXXXXX_G_YYY_MMMMMMMM_DDDD Option2: XXXXXXX_G_ YYY_MMMMMMMM_DDDD Tyre Identification Number(TIN; already exists in slightly different format; not part of certification mark) [Self certification will use all ’’ 0 ’’s] WP.29, June 2010 T h e E u r o p e a n T y r e a n d R i m T e c h n i c a l O r g a n i s a t i o n

  4. Universality The global symbol or pictogram is used by all stakeholders to indicate respect of global requirements The global symbol or pictogram can or may replace all current 1958 and 1998 Agreement CP's certification marks such as E (UN ECE), DOT (USA), CCCs (China), ISI (India), etc., depending on each national regulation WP.29, June 2010 T h e E u r o p e a n T y r e a n d R i m T e c h n i c a l O r g a n i s a t i o n

  5. Summary No major issues with defining a new GTR mark for: Type approval under 1958 Agreement Self-certification The serious problem to be resolved concerns 1998 Agreement CPs who are not also signatories of the 1958 Agreement Additional markings required (not only GTR mark, but other local or regional marks) Additional administrative procedures required (not only GTR tests and papers) There is NO mutual recognition Until solutions are found, no product which is required to have certification marks under a GTR (tyres, glazing, lighting, etc.) will be truly global WP.29, June 2010 T h e E u r o p e a n T y r e a n d R i m T e c h n i c a l O r g a n i s a t i o n
