C.R. England, the world’s largest refrigerated trucking company, announced today that the company will begin deploying ATDynamics TrailerTail® technology. After extensive fuel economy testing, the first 200 units will be deployed on new trailers this November. The deployment of TrailerTail® technology at C.R. England has the potential to reduce the company’s total diesel fuel consumption by more than 2 million gallons per year.
“Our testing has shown that improved air flow at the rear of the trailer results in reduced fuel consumption. Installing TrailerTails® on our latest group of new trailers will allow us to observe these benefits in a real world situation throughout our transportation network,” said Corey England, Executive Vice President at C.R. England.
ATDynamics is proud to have the most competitive fleets in America deploying TrailerTail® equipment. The optimized TrailerTails® have made over 1 billion miles of on-road testing and the results are very good.
2014 TrailerTail® technology is compatible with all refrigerated and dry van configurations and is now available in multiple length and auto deployment options to meet all operational requirements. TrailerTail® technology can be
factory installed at all major trailer manufacturers for new trailer orders or retrofitted to existing trailers.
