Bridgestone's IntelliTire Tool Hits Milestone

For the first time, Bridgestone Americas Inc.’s IntelliTire tire monitoring tool has surpassed 200 million readouts in one year.

This marks the company’s highest annual total of tire pressure readings to date across its TBR and OTR tire businesses, according to Bridgestone officials.

“Bridgestone Fleet Care’s technology combines durable hardware with a software application designed to help fleet operators to proactively address specific tire issues and mitigate unplanned maintenance, with the aim of helping to reduce downtime and improve driver safety.

“Fleets using this solution have access to critical data such as tire inflation pressure and temperature, enabling them to continually monitor the health of each tire throughout its lifecycle.”

“It is exciting to see Bridgestone’s Fleet Care’s tire monitoring service successfully integrate with so many fleets and customers across the market,” says Jon Kimpel, president, Advanced Tire Solutions, Bridgestone Mobility Solutions.

“As a result, customers have begun to experience the full benefits of this integrated technology as part of a comprehensive tire program through Bridgestone.”
