“The Michelin Energy Flap is designed to increase safety with optimally dispersed water spray downward, away,” said Pierluigi Cumo, B2B VP of marketing for Michelin North America, Inc. “Expanding our partnership with Utility Trailers demonstrates that Michelin is providing the latest technology in energy flaps and delivering on our promise of a more sustainable future.”

The Michelin Energy Flaps offer advanced technological construction, ultraviolet resistance, and the ability to withstand operating temperatures from -40 degrees F to 212 degrees F. They are designed to greatly reduce vehicle drag and feature a low-flex and anti-sail design to keep the Energy Flaps straight while the vehicle is in motion, while the patented mounted surface assures optimal installation without drilling. The flap is made with up to 60%-80% recycled materials.

 All Michelin Energy Guard products are available from the OEM through Aurora Parts or directly from the OEM Dealer.
