Tire fill manufacturer Arnco says more than 10 million pounds of its Ecofil product have been used since the product was introduced one year ago. That equates to 40,000 tires filled, says Arnco President Larry Carapellotti.
"Presently, the prices of oil and petrochemicals have stabilized mainly due to weak demand caused by the worldwide recession," he says. "But we can be sure that as demand increases we will see more spikes in these highly speculative commodities and the price of flatproofing will increase accordingly."
Arnco also is continuing its "One tote, one tree" program, in which the company will plant one tree for every tote of Arnco material sold.
