Overview

Aperia develops automatic tire inflation technology for commercial fleets. Its Halo Tire Inflator is a bolt-on, self-powered device per wheel that uses wheel rotation to keep tires at optimal pressure without an onboard air connection, with installation taking about 5–10 minutes per wheel. Halo Connect i3 adds smart sensors and two-way communication to monitor tire health, provide predictive analytics, and remotely adjust pressure based on load, temperature, or tire model. The system helps fleets save fuel, extend tire life, and improve safety, and its technology has been adopted by major operators and Ryder as a standard specification.
