The company supplies well-known automotive manufacturers such as Borg Warner, Cummins and Honeywell, and ships its locally-made product worldwide.

“I was on the original team that chose Newberry County more than 20 years ago, and we have never regretted that decision. This investment is a sign of the continued confidence Doncasters has in the facility we have here in Newberry and gives us the means to better serve our customers, strengthening our future in this community. Our strong relationship with the community and our committed local workforce have been key factors in the long-term success of Trucast,” said Doncasters Turbocharger Components Division Managing Director Chris Pritchard.

“The new announcements gets all the attention, but when an established company like Trucast decides to expand, I take that as a vote of confidence in our community and our workforce. We welcome this continued investment, and we’re delighted Trucast chose us once again,” Newberry County Council Chairman Henry H. Livingston III said.
