Chief operating officer Jay Hansen said: “When Noble was awarded the Durango program in July 2005, we committed to open an all-new facility to meet our customer’s needs in January 2006. Our team has met their target of beginning LWB production this month, demonstrating Noble’s ability to meet customer requirements for reliable delivery and quality.
“Since we announced the award of the Durango programme, we have been awarded four more for our Ohio facility, with production on our next scheduled to begin in the second quarter of 2006.”
