Ternium Announces Location of New Steel Slab Mill

LUXEMBOURG / ACCESSWIRE / June 20, 2023 / Ternium S.A. (NYSE:TX) today announced that its new steel slab mill, which the company previously disclosed in February 2023, will be built at and integrated into the company's existing downstream facility in Pesquería, Nuevo León, Mexico following an extensive review of location candidates. Ternium expects construction to begin in December 2023, with the start of operations anticipated to occur during the first half of 2026.

The new state-of-the-art facility will complement the company's new hot rolling mill in Pesquería, which began operations in mid-2021, as well as its downstream project at the same site, which is currently under construction. It will also be equipped with the latest technologies to accelerate Ternium's ongoing commitment to sustainability, including carbon capture capabilities and readiness to switch from natural gas to hydrogen use for DRI production. In addition, all water utilized in the new facility's production process will be sourced from wastewater treated for industrial use.

"We are thrilled to announce the selection of Pesquería, Nuevo León, as the official location for our new upstream production capacity project," said Máximo Vedoya, Ternium's CEO. "This decision is a significant milestone for our company as we continue to integrate our downstream manufacturing capabilities to serve all our customers in Mexico while solidifying our position as a leading player in the USMCA region."

Mr. Vedoya continued: "The value chain in Mexico is rapidly addressing and responding to the growth opportunities presented by the nearshoring of manufacturing capacity. We are confident that the skilled workforce and supportive business environment in the country will enable us to achieve our ambitious goals. We look forward to working with the government, communities, and other stakeholders to continue fostering economic growth, job opportunities, and the region's prosperity."
