Steel Industry Capacity Expansion in Mexico

In 2025, Mexico’s steel industry continues to expand its capacity. The Acerero Group plans to launch slab production and operations at its new steel mill in San Luis Potosí in September, with a investment of $650 million, including the installation of new arc furnaces and ladle refining furnaces. The production scale is expected to reach 150,000 tons in 2025 and gradually increase to 650,000 tons by 2028. Suacero’s new advanced wire rod mill in San Luis Potosí is scheduled to start operation in the third quarter of 2025, with a designed annual capacity of 500,000 tons. Talleres y Aceros’ new rolling mill is planned to be commissioned in late 2025 or early 2026 in Ixtaczoquitlán, Veracruz, producing 350,000 tons of special steel bars for automotive and industrial applications annually. Ternium Steel will also commission a 600,000-ton-per-year hot-dip galvanizing line at its new integrated steel mill in Pesquería, Nuevo León, by the end of 2025.
