Global automotive supplier Denso Corporation and electronics and ceramics company Ibiden Co have formed a capital and business alliance to jointly develop the next-generation vehicle exhaust system.
This collaboration will combine Ibiden’s strengths in high-performance ceramic materials with Denso’s expertise in developing products as systems to synergistically develop high-performance yet simple and low-cost vehicle exhaust systems. Denso will acquire the treasury stock of Ibiden through a third-party allocation. In addition, to respond to an increasingly diverse range of powertrains, the two companies will consider collaboration in the area of vehicle electrification to make vehicle electrification more efficient.
The partnership comes about as a need to benefit from increasingly stringent global norms on vehicle exhaust emissions which in turn compel internal combustion engines to be more efficient. This alliance will enable the two companies to pool their accumulated technological strengths to speed up the development of high-performance vehicle exhaust systems for internal combustion engines, including petrol, diesel, hybrid, and plug-in hybrid engines.
While Denso has developed and provided systems components to better control the intake, power and exhaust events in the operating cycle of petrol and diesel engines, Ibiden has focused on its ceramic business and developed high-performance ceramic materials, such as for diesel particulate filters (DPF), for the exhaust system of diesel engines.
