GT Development and Norgren’s Global Truck Group have combined forces in a new business unit called Global Vehicle Technologies (GVT) that to develop products for a broad range of heavy-duty truck cab/chassis and powertrain applications.

GVT, the new operating division of Chicago, Ill.-based Norgren, offers fluid and motion control products to commercial vehicle OEMs and Tier 1 and Tier 2 suppliers. GVT provides problem-solving engineering expertise and components in powertrain, chassis/cab, braking systems, fuel systems and suspension/driveline operations.
“Our new name, product mix and added engineering capability reflect our commitment to worldwide markets and our continuing emphasis on the needs of commercial vehicle manufacturers and their Tier 1 and Tier 2 suppliers,” said Mike Bozich, GVT president. “By expanding the components of GT Development and Norgren’s Global Truck Group, we can engineer and source many of the unique and critical parts that go into commercial trucks,” he said.
Seattle-based GT Development was acquired in 2005 by England-headquartered engineering company IMI and integrated into Norgren, its largest business unit.
On the chassis/cab side, GVT’s broad product lineup covers custom-engineered, on-board fittings, manifolds, cab controls and air management systems. Many of its components are designed to reduce air leaks and assemble time.
GVT’s powertrain systems are designed to enable truck manufacturers to meet emissions regulations and protect the environment while maintaining peak engine performance. Components include valves, cartridges and actuators. For more information, visit www.gvt-norgren.com.
