AUBURN HILLS, Mich. — A major Columbus auto component manufacturer has announced a name change to align automotive megatrends and strategy for clean mobility. Faurecia Emissions Control Technologies is now known as Faurecia Clean Mobility.
The company has plans to focus on three key areas:
- New technologies for a more efficient and responsible use of thermal and hybrid cars, integrating high-tech systems such as energy recovery and monitoring of real time data.
- Developing breakthrough innovations for the rapidly growing commercial vehicle market as well as the global off-highway and high horse power market, including marine and power generation.
- Leveraging its expertise to develop innovative solutions to accompany the growth of electric vehicles, with a focus on lightweight solutions including composites and battery thermal management.
Executive Vice-President, Christopher Schmitt says, “By focusing on Clean Mobility we are boosting our growth opportunities. The electrification of the powertrain is a major opportunity for value added technologies such as energy recovery, composites and battery management. At the same time the world is becoming increasingly emissionized, in particular for commercial vehicles and high horsepower engines. This represents important growth opportunities for innovative air quality solutions for which Faurecia is the world leader.”
