40 years of Schrader at AAPEX/SEMA 2025

Schrader is celebrating their 40-year milestone, by unveiling a new logo and showcasing its latest TPMS solutions at AAPEX and SEMA 2025 in Las Vegas, November 4-7. 

In 1985, Schrader introduced the world to the first TPMS system, earning adoption by leading OEMs and driving U.S. legislation requiring TPMS in all passenger cars by 2008. Now, Schrader's direct TPMS technology equips hundreds millions of vehicles of worldwide, with more than half of the global OEM platforms relying on Schrader's systems. 

Earlier this year, to close the gap between modern vehicles that come standard with TPMS and older or specialty vehicles that lack this safety feature, Schrader developed and launched AirCheck BLE. This is a universal retrofit kit that delivers OEM-grade tire monitoring for previously unserved segments such as towable trailers, RVs, motorhomes, off-road vehicles, and other vehicles without factory-installed or direct TPMS. 

Schrader will be at AAPEX (booth #A6039) and SEMA (booth #42057) to share this new technology and share how four decades of the company's innovation has shaped the next generation of TPMS technology. Also on display will be Schrader's latest advancement: Heavy Duty TPMS sensors for leading truck and bus brands, and the AirCheck BLE retrofit kit.
