Navistar diesel division to expand SC operations
COLUMBIA, S.C. — A division of Navistar Inc. that makes diesel engine fuel parts says it will expand its Columbia operations and add 200 jobs.
The South Carolina Commerce Department said Tuesday that Pure Power Technologies will invest $25 million in an expansion of its research and development facility and add the jobs over the next three years.
Navistar bought part of Continental Diesel Systems U.S. LLC in 2009 and turned it into Pure Power. The division is based in Columbia and has a manufacturing plant in nearby Blythewood.
The company also is developing technology to help reduce carbon dioxide emissions.
