The EPA's SmartWay program says fleets installing Aerodynamic Trailer Systems' new IAS Integrated Automated System (SmartTailâ„¢ with WindTamerâ„¢) will satisfy stringent CARB (California Air Resources Board) legislation requiring 53' trailers operating in the state to have aerodynamic devices installed on trailers that yield 5% or greater verified fuel savings. Verified testing confirmed that Aerodynamic Trailer Systems' product will deliver 5.3% improvement in fuel efficiency. Aerodynamic Trailer Systems, headquartered in Chagrin Falls, Ohio, has developed fuel efficient products for semi tractor trailers to reduce drag and improve fuel economy.

The SmartTailâ„¢ and the WindTamerâ„¢ products are designed for a 10 year life. The SmartTailâ„¢ improves the aerodynamic profile of the trailer with automated polymer skins that are mounted directly to the rear doors. The WindTamerâ„¢ improves the aerodynamics of the trailer with its rugged low profile contoured cover mounted on the undercarriage of a vehicle.
