It is always good to hear that further developments are being made in order to lessen air pollution from vehicles. Researches are continually being made and recently, the Environmental Solutions Worldwide, Inc. has given a statement that its subsidiary, which is the ESW Canada Inc., already signed an Emissions Control and Technologies Provider and Cooperation agreement with the International Truck and Engine Cooperation (ITEC). The ITEC is a company in line with the Navistar International Corporation that has a site in Warrenville, Illinois.

Recently, the ESWC has been operating with the International’s “Green Diesel Technology.” Word has it that the EDWC’s campaign, which is the Clean Cat™ Level I High Performance Diesel Oxidation Catalyst (HP-DOC) as well as the company’s Therma Cat™ Active Level III technology for catalytic converters are still being verified. The one tasked to verify these products are the Environmental Protection Agency or also known as the EPA and the California Air Resources Board or the CARB. Upon approval, this diesel catalytic converter of an International brand will be tagged as the “Green Diesel Technology.”

Although the new technology is said to benefit International’s bus as well as truck applications, it will also be made available for retrofit installations on OEM vehicles. The new catalyst technology will serve as a part of the portfolio for retrofit and service parts. According to David J. Johnson, who is ESW’s President and CEO, “[the] International will be a tremendous addition to our Company’s growing base of OEM customers and is another example of our desire to build strong partnerships in the diesel engine and vehicle manufacturing sector of the industry. This agreement is the next critical step in ESW’s continuing efforts to grow in the on-road emissions controls market and we believe marks a major event in our Company’s history. International, North America’s biggest diesel engine, truck and bus manufacturer, will provide our group with the largest demographic for retrofit, as well as first fit opportunities for our emissions reduction technologies. The agreement with International extends ESWC’s product distribution and provides a single source for specific technologies and services. It truly is a win-win relationship.”
