ummins Inc. CMI announced today that it has completed the acquisition of the emission control assets of Hilite International in Marktheidenfeld, Germany. The Hilite assets are now part of Cummins Emission Solution (CES), positioning the company to serve all major market applications with a Cummins doser. Cummins Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Tom Linebarger said, "The Hilite acquisition demonstrates how Cummins benefits from macroeconomic trends that support our future growth, such as globalization, increasingly stringent emission standards and energy availability. Adding Hilite's technology and capabilities will help Cummins continue to capitalize on these macroeconomic trends and grow into the future.” The selective catalytic reduction dosing (SCR dosing) system developed by Hilite will complement existing Cummins aftertreatment technology, which includes controls, sensors, catalysts, substrates and packaging.
