Nitrogen filled/self-balancing tires.

A big part of being green is making things last longer. Extending tire life on RVs is a green choice and one more way EverGreen works to make eco-friendly the norm in its product line. The latest technology of self-balancing tires, combined with using nitrogen instead of air to fill the tires, is an eco-friendly choice that results in significant improvement in tire performance for the Ever-Lite brand.. Nitrogen filled, self-balancing tires are standard on Ever-Lite RVs and the eco-friendly green choice.

With nitrogen-filled, self-balancing tires on your new Ever-Lite RV you're going green and saving money by having fewer maintenance issues and replacing the tires less frequently. This eco-friendly choice keeps tires out of landfills. With an EverGreen RV, tires are one less thing to worry about and you have more time to enjoy the open road. Although they  don't look green on the outside, they are green on the inside.

Middlebury, Ind. — EverGreen Recreational Vehicles continues to revolutionize the RV industry as the first all-composite, eco-friendly, manufacturer to achieve the TRA Green Certified Emerald Rating for its Ever-Lite™ Travel Trailers and Fifth Wheels. EverGreen achieved the rating on November 19, 2009 and has the distinguished privilege of being the only RV company to introduce its 2011 line of eco-friendly trailers at the 2009 Recreational Vehicle Association Show (RVIA) in Louisville, Kentucky, December 1-3, 2009.

“We formulated the parameters based on the National Green Building Standard and tailored that standard to the recreational vehicle industry. We must extend solid congratulations to the EverGreen team, as we were positive an RV COMPANY would never achieve our Emerald Certified Green Rating. They proved us wrong,” said, LEED AP and Green Program Manager for TRA Certification, Inc., Mandy Leazenby, “No other Emerald Certified Green company will be at the upcoming RVIA Show. EverGreen is the only RV company to achieve this status,” she stated.

The certification was based on the eco-friendly, all composite, wood free outside wall construction with which EverGreen trailers are stringently built, and the fact that all these materials are completely recyclable. The Certified Green Emerald Status was also based on EverGreen's lean and green manufacturing processes that recycle all waste and even reuse window and wall cutouts as baggage doors on its products.

“Our team was extremely proud to receive this distinction upon the review of our last audit by TRA,” reflected EverGreen President, Doug Lantz. “It's the honored verification of a journey we have all traveled together since we all founded EverGreen. Our vision was always towards the future, to become the RV industry's first truly green company. We are all very proud to achieve this honor,” he concluded.
