The Kenworth Truck Co. assembly plant in Renton, Wash., recently celebrated its 20th anniversary. Since the plant opened in 1993, it has produced more than 130,000 Kenworth trucks. The facility currently produces T660, T800, W900, C500, K500 and 963 models along with some medium-duty Kenworth T370s and T440s.
The Renton assembly plant holds ISO 14001:2004 certification for environmental management systems and last summer the facility received a 2012 Best Workplace for Waste Prevention and Recycling Award from the King County, Washington Solid Waste Division for its efforts to reduce, reuse and recycle.
