“This is a significant development for the company as it dramatically improves our ability to penetrate the expansive North American commercial vehicle after-market. Fleet customers now have access to our products through top quality distribution channels,” said Dave Warkentin, president and CEO of SmarTire.
SmartWave TPMS may be installed on any existing truck and displays each tyre’s temperature and pressure deviation. If the system detects a loss of air pressure or abnormally high tyre temperature, a warning light automatically alerts the driver to the condition. The system reduces tyre failures which in turn reduces roadside downtime and increases driver safety, the maker claims.
