TIA Hall of Fame Nominations Close June 23

The Tire Industry Association (TIA) is closing nominations for the 2023 Tire Industry Hall of Fame on June 23.

Nomination forms can be found on the TIA website here.

TIA says the Hall of Fame recognizes the accomplishments of individuals who have contributed to the growth and/or development of the tire industry or have demonstrated high standards, ideals and leadership in managing their businesses in the tire community.

The award is open to all individuals in the tire industry, including manufacturers, inventors, publishers, equipment suppliers, tire association executives, tire dealers, tire and rubber recyclers and retreaders. Hall of Fame membership may be awarded posthumously.

Inductees are chosen by judges based on the following criteria, contribution of new ideas promoting the well-being of the tire industry; service that is exemplary within the tire industry; and respect of their peers.

The association says a candidate’s civic, cultural, educational or charitable endeavors will be considered but are not a primary selection attribute.

The Hall of Fame inductions will take place on Monday, Oct. 30, 2023, during the Tire Industry Association's Tire Industry Honors program prior to the opening of the 2023 Global Tire Expo/Specialty Equipment Market Association show in Las Vegas, Nev.
