Accella Tire Fill Systems, Manufacturer of the Sustainable TyrFiltm Flatproofing, Teams with American Forests to Help Replant California's El Dorado Wildfire Area

ST. LOUIS, Aug. 24, 2018 /PRNewswire/ -- Accella Tire Fill Systems has partnered once again with American Forests, the nation's longest running non-profit conservation organization, as part of a long-standing collaboration to replant thousands of new trees in our nation's most devastated fire zones. This year, as part of its signature "One Tote, One Tree" sustainability campaign, Accella and its customers and dealers will specifically assist with the reforestation of the El Dorado National Forest located in Northern California. 

This area, located within the majestic Sierra Nevada mountain and foothill environ west of Lake Tahoe, was especially hard hit by the 2014 King Fire disaster. By donating thousands of tree seedlings to be replanted, Accella will help reinvigorate the natural beauty and landscape of a beloved tourist destination and favored outdoor recreation spot that has been admired for generations.

For nearly a decade Accella Tire Fill Systems, which manufactures eco-friendly polyurethane fill for pneumatic industrial and commercial tires, has teamed up with American Forests?along with its valued OEMs, aftermarket dealers, and distributors around the world?to plant one new tree for every tote of its tire fill product purchased. To date, the company's "One Tote, One Tree" initiative (www.onetoteonetree.org) has been responsible for the successful replanting of more than 164,000 trees.

Explains Accella Tire Fill Systems Vice President Mike Arnold: "The El Dorado region is richly steeped in Gold Rush lore and has been revered for its incredible wilderness vistas for years by visitors from around the world, attracting two million tourists annually to its rugged mountainous terrain. Accella's 'One Tote, One Tree' campaign will help enable a regeneration process making it possible for future generations to continue to enjoy the natural beauty of this scenic West Coast mountain region.  We cannot thank our valued dealer and OEM network enough for their continued support with this flagship project."

The commitment to ensuring greater sustainability across the communities it serves is a central mission of the Accella brand. As the industry's market leader in tire fill solutions, Accella Tire Fill Systems seeks to bring more eco-friendly solutions to market throughout the global OTR tire sector.
