Kolbenschmidt Pierburg has booked major orders from two prominent automobile makers for innovative components for emission reduction. For the company’s Neuss, Germany-based mechatronics division (Pierburg), the two orders will be worth EUR300m (US$335.26m) in sales during the lifetime of the contracts.

The products ordered include exhaust gas flaps for “a large European automaker” and exhaust gas recirculation modules for a “well known customer in the US”. The exhaust-gas flaps are part of the control system for exhaust gas recirculation in a low pressure circuit, and will be produced by Pierburg in the Czech Republic starting in 2017.
