ESW Group, which manufactures aftermarket diesel particulate filters and diesel oxidation catalysts, opens a new 40,000 square foot, lean manufacturing facility to increase production capacity.

MONTGOMERYVILLE, Pa. — Emissions control devices manufacturer ESW Group has opened a new production facility to meet growing demand.

ESW Group, which manufactures Skyline aftermarket diesel particulate filters (DPFs) and diesel oxidation catalysts (DOCs), is debuting a facility that is optimized to produce high volume OEM equivalent aftermarket DPF and DOC units. Skyline products are designed, validated, and made in the U.S., according to the manufacturer.  

“ESW is well positioned to succeed in the diesel emission control aftermarket business,” said Patrick Barge, CEO of ESW Group. “With this new facility, ESW will continue to bring forward the latest technology at industry-leading production quality and speed.”

The new 40,000 square foot, ISO 9001- and 14001-accredited, lean manufacturing facility is expected to significantly increase the production capacity for DOCs and DPFs for the growing aftermarket DPF and DOC market, according to ESW Group.

The production facility is the result of ESW’s collaboration with a network of distributors around the U.S.
“Thanks to these successful partnerships, ESW has enjoyed a continuously growing presence in the market,” said Adam Gross, director of sales at ESW Group.
