Aeolus trailer tyre gets SmartWay verification

ERJ staff report (TB)

Wakefield, Maddachusetts -- Alliance Tire Americas Inc.'s Aeolus HN808 line haul trailer tyre has been verified by the US Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) to meet the agency's SmartWay Transport Partnership criteria.

“Verification through the SmartWay partnership is another step in Aeolus' commitment to providing US truckers with tyres that help them become more efficient, more profitable and more environmentally sustainable,” said John Hull, national truck tyre sales manager for Alliance Tire Americas, which is the US distributor for the Aeolus truck tyre brand produced by China's Aeolus Tyre Co. Ltd.

The Aeolus HN808 is available in a variety of popular sizes, including 11R22.5, 11R24.5, 285/75R24.5 and 295/75R22.5.

The SmartWay Partnership is a collaboration between the EPA, the trucking industry and the railroads to reduce fuel consumption and exhaust emissions from freight operations. The Aeolus HN808 was verified under more stringent guidelines enacted last September, Alliance Tire said.
