Detroit Diesel signs long-term DPF deal with Corning

CORNING, N.Y. — Corning Incorporated has entered into a long-term agreement with Detroit Diesel Corp. for the supply of advanced diesel emissions control products.

This multi-year agreement will help Detroit Diesel, a subsidiary of DaimlerChrysler, meet EPA 2007 engine regulations.

“We are pleased that Detroit Diesel has selected Corning as its supplier of advanced emissions control products,” said Thomas R. Hinman, senior vice president and general manager of Corning Diesel Technologies. “This agreement further strengthens our relationship with Detroit Diesel and continues to reinforce our position as a leader in the heavy-duty diesel market.”

Corning is a leading supplier of advanced cellular ceramic substrates and diesel particulate filters to major manufacturers of gasoline and diesel engines and vehicles.
