Supplier Profile: Tenneco Emissions Control

The long-term development of a global base and success in the aftermarket have contributed to the company’s resilience

The 2008–2009 global crisis in the automotive sector caused many companies to revise their business plans. For emissions and aftertreatment system manufacturers, a requirement by regulators that off-road diesel engined vehicles reduce their particulate and NOx emissions by more than 90% means that these sectors became attractive targets for diversification and new sources of revenue. For example in April 2010, a joint-venture by Bosch, Deutz and Eberspächer to develop, produce and sell diesel exhaust after-treatment systems for off-road applications commenced operations.
