ATDynamics, a global supplier of semi-trailer rear-drag aerodynamics technology, announced that Fritz Marinko, formerly Director of Auto Research Center, will be joining ATDynamics in a newly created position as VP of Special Accounts and a member of the executive team. 

Marinko is an accomplished leader in the trucking, aerodynamic and government relations communities and will continue his engagements with the Trucking Maintenance Council, the Society of Automotive Engineers (SAE), the Truck Trailer Manufacturers Association, as well as offer support to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA).

“I started my career at ARC with the goal of educating the industry and improving the fuel economy of heavy-duty vehicles via improved aerodynamics,” Marinko said. “At this point, the trucking industry understands the benefits of trailer skirt technology. The next substantial fuel savings opportunity for the industry is the full-scale adoption of rear-drag aerodynamics technology. I am proud to join the ATDynamics team in a role that allows me to continue to serve and educate the trucking industry on improving vehicle aerodynamics and fleet profitability.”

According to Andrew Smith, CEO of ATDynamics, “TrailerTail technology makes immediate economic sense for any trucking fleet whose trailers are pulled more than 25,000 miles per year at highway speed, which is the majority of the semi-trailers seen on the highway. We are pleased that Fritz will join us in our mission to change the shape of the modern semi-trailer and deliver over $20 billion in fuel savings to our customers over the next decade.”

Marinko holds a Bachelor’s Degree in Mathematics and Statistics with a minor in Mechanical Engineering from Ohio State University.
