BorgWarner has opened a 64,000-square-foot facility in Chungju, South Korea, to expand manufacturing for its emissions technologies.
In addition to the ignition products produced at the previous plant in the same city, the new facility will also manufacture exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) valves and coolers, variable force solenoids, diesel cold-start technologies and coolant control valves.

The wholly-owned facility also provides space for application engineering, sales, quality, supply chain management and administrative functions.
BorgWarner expects the facility to double employment in the next five years to support its growing business.
“Around the world, automakers are adopting BorgWarner’s emissions and ignition technologies to help meet stringent emissions standards while improving fuel economy and engine performance,” said BorgWarner Emissions Systems president and general manager, Brady Ericson.
“We are proud to open our new modern facility in South Korea and look forward to providing localised production for a growing list of major automakers throughout Asia.”
