Innovation, vision and performance are the building blocks of great companies. For more than 170 years, Schrader, the global pioneer in the design and manufacture of valve, mechanical and electronic system components and sensing technologies, has delivered innovative solutions that customers trust. One of our first inventions was the world-renowned Schrader pneumatic tire valvethe very same valve that is used today on every motor vehicle in the world. Since our breakthrough inventions beginning in 1844, weve accelerated our strong culture and track record of innovative technologies solving real-world challenges for our customers. More recently, we pioneered tire pressure monitoring systems (TPMS) for global OEMs and a revolutionary, patented programmable sensor for the Aftermarket. TPMS is a safety feature now standard on all cars in North America and growing globally in Europe and Asian-Pacific countries.
