Ontario-based Onfreight Logistics is installing Aerofficient side fairings on its entire fleet of trailers.

Onfreight is based inTecumseh, ON, with warehousing operating in London and Mississuaga, Ontario.

“We have followed a progressive growth plan that has always included the use of technology to help us not only maintain our high level of service but to also help maintain our overall costs,” said Steve Ondejko, president of Onfreight. “We take our purchasing decisions very seriously. Once we made the decision that trailer fairings truly met the efficiencies and fuel savings the manufacturers were touting, we carefully researched the qualities and capabilities of the various offerings in the market to determine the best product.”

Aerofficient’s fairings are produced from an injection molded automotive-grade thermoplastic polyolefin material known for its high performance properties and its ability to withstand thermal expansion and contraction caused by extremes of heat and cold. In addition, the hinged, three-panel design of Aerofficient’s fairings provides the strength and flexibility necessary for survival in the real world of trucking, such as drop-down docks, snow banks and road and yard hazards.
