TIREMAAX, an automatic tire pressure control system, helps maintain optimal tire pressure in commercial vehicles, reducing wear and tear on tires and improving fuel efficiency. Hendrickson says it automatically monitors and adjusts tire pressure, ensuring that tires are always properly inflated, contributing to safer operations and extending tire life. TIREMAAX is a critical component that enhances transportation fleets' reliability, sustainability, and cost-effectiveness, aligning with the industry's growing focus on efficiency and environmental responsibility.
"Utility Trailer is honored to be part of this historic moment with Hendrickson," adds Steve Bennett, president and COO of Utility Trailer. "The TIREMAAX system is a critical component in our trailers, providing our customers reliability and peace of mind. All Kroger 3000R refrigerated trailers, with Cargobull TRUs, come with UTILITY TrailerConnect for both TIREMAAX monitoring and monitoring of the TRU and trailer health.”
