New BorgWarner plant

BorgWarner has inaugurated its second plant in Thiruvallur District near Chennai, India. The new plant provides extensive manufacturing, assembly and storage space. With the two sites known to operate in proximity, the company is expected to increase production efficiency and strengthen the company’s position in the region. The assembly of high-performance engine control and Variable Camshaft Timing (VCT) systems will be centralised in the new facility. It will also provide space for warehousing and shipping. “The current expansion was necessary; we needed the extra space to meet our increasing customer demand in India as a major local manufacturer,” said Pei Wang, Vice President and General Manager Asia, BorgWarner Morse Systems. With the opening of this plant, BorgWarner finds itself ideally positioned to meet the ever-growing business needs of the automotive industry, not only in India but also in the entire Asian market.
