    总部位于美国LakeForest,Illinois的天纳克公司于2008年2月11日宣布，福特汽车公司将其2009年和2010年将要上市车型的新的热端排气系统项目给予了天纳克公司。

    “我们非常高兴被福特公司选中成为这个重要的新排气系统项目的供应商。”天纳克公司董事长兼CEOGreggSherrill说，“我们依靠在技术上的投资以及提高我们工程制造能力而保持不断的增长，能提供客户所需，满足当前以及未来对汽车排气方面的要求。”

    天纳克公司将为福特F-150轻型卡车(在今年的北美国际车展上作过推介)、福特Expedition、林肯Navigator以及福特Econoline提供组成其排气控制系统“热端”的主要部件（包括催化转换器）。天纳克公司目前已经在为这些车型提供排气控制系统的“冷端”(消声器和尾管)，因此现在成为了这些车型平台的全排气系统供应商。天纳克公司同时也取得了福特F250/F350汽油车型的一些额外的排气控制零部件项目，而天纳克自2006年这两个车型汽油版和柴油版推出之时就已经是其排气系统的供应商。

    天纳克公司将为福特公司在2010年车型的部分中型和中大型乘用汽车产品线提供排气系统零部件。这反映了福特汽车公司在这类车型的业务增长，并符合天纳克公司在乘用车业务领域增长的全球战略。

    天纳克曾在去年10月份公布2007年第三季度营收的时候引用了这一新闻，但当时不能够指明客户。

    天纳克的Elkhart,Ind.,SewardNeb.,Cambridge,Ont.,Ligonier,Ind.,Marshall,MI.andKansasCity,MO.等制造工厂将参与负责零部件的制造或总装。当项目全部实施的时候，天纳克预计项目总和将会带来比2007年增长2.5%的增值业务收入。

    天纳克作为福特公司“联合业务框架”(AlignedBusinessFramework)供应商成员，是福特公司的战略供应商。

    天纳克公司的全球排气系统业务经营包括了48个排气系统制造工厂以及4个致力于排气系统工程和先进技术的全球技术研发中心。天纳克的工程技术能力以及系列齐全的排气控制产品和系统能够帮助汽车制造厂商超越日趋严厉的排放和噪音法规、实现更好的燃油经济性、满足柴油排放控制的要求、以及其他各类燃料和混合动力汽车的要求。

    Lake Forest, Illinois, February 11, 2008 – Tenneco Inc. (NYSE: TEN) today announced that the Ford Motor Company awarded Tenneco new hot-end emission control business on vehicles launching in model-year 2009 and 2010.

    “We are extremely pleased to be selected by Ford for this significant new emissions control business,”

said Gregg Sherrill, Tenneco Chairman and CEO. “We continue to generate growth by investing in technology and enhancing our engineering capabilities to provide just what our customers need to meet current and future emissions requirements.”

    Tenneco will supply components (including catalytic converters) that make up the “hot end” of the exhaust system for the Ford F-150 light-duty truck (introduced at this year’s North American International Auto Show), Ford Expedition, Lincoln Navigator and the Ford Econoline vehicles.  Tenneco currently supplies the “cold end” (mufflers and tailpipes) of the exhaust system for the Ford F-150, Ford Expedition and Lincoln Navigator, now making it a full-system supplier for those platforms.  Tenneco was also awarded additional emission control content on the gasoline version of the F250/F350 Super-Duty in addition to what it already supplies on both the gasoline and diesel versions of the vehicles that launched in 2006.

    For 2010 model-year, Tenneco will supply emission control components for some of Ford’s mid and upper mid-size passenger vehicle lines.  This represents growth in the car segment with Ford Motor Company and supports Tenneco’s global strategy to increase passenger car business.

    Tenneco referenced this new business in its third quarter 2007 earnings release last October, but was unable to name the customer at that time.

    Tenneco’s Elkhart, Ind., Seward Neb., Cambridge, Ont., Ligonier, Ind., Marshall, MI. and Kansas City, MO. facilities will be involved in manufacturing components or final assembly.  When fully launched, Tenn

eco estimates all these programs together will represent approximately a 2.5% increase in its value-added revenues compared to its 2007 value-added sales. 

    Tenneco is a strategic supplier to Ford as a member of the company’s Aligned Business Framework supplier group.

    Tenneco’s global emissions operations include 48 emission control manufacturing facilities and four global engineering centers devoted to emission control engineering and advanced technology. The company’s engineering capabilities and broad range of emission control products and systems help vehicle manufacturers address increasingly stringent emissions and noise regulations, the drive for better fuel efficiency and the emission control demands of diesel and other alternative fuel and hybrid vehicles.
