TPMS will become a legal requirement to be fitted on all new cars sold across Europe from November 2012 and in addition to helping to reduce road deaths and casualties, tyre pressure monitoring systems will help the environment, and correctly inflated tyres help a vehicle use less fuel and emit less CO2 emissions.
“The figures released by the UK government are a powerful endorsement for TPMS technology,” said Alfonso Di Pasquale, Vice President of Business Development for Schrader Electronics, the world’s leading developer and producer of direct TPMS technologies. “We believe that motorists purchasing a new car should have the safest products available on the market and a direct TPMS should be the system of choice.”
