Ternium S.A.

Ternium is a leading steel producer in Latin America and a strong player in the Americas. The company focuses on sophisticated value-added products, strategic growth, and competitive industrial operations. Ternium aims to enhance stakeholder value by consolidating its position and strengthening its competitiveness. The company has established competitive advantages in its main steel markets through its industrial presence and a network of distribution centers and commercial offices, which enable differentiated logistics and stock management services. An integrated connectivity platform covers the entire customer relationship process, allowing Ternium to respond to customer needs more effectively. Ternium collaborates with small and medium-sized customers and suppliers in Argentina and Mexico through the ProPymes program to foster their prosperity. This program supports the development of SMEs and a collaborative industrial network, strengthening Ternium's value chain. This effort has resulted in improved competitiveness, increased exports, and import substitution of manufactured products. Ternium's differentiation initiatives include investments in state-of-the-art technologies. For example, Ternium Mexico has developed an industrial center in Pesquería, Mexico, which includes a hot-rolling mill, a cold-rolling mill, two galvanizing facilities, a painting line, a push-pull pickling line, and finishing facilities. In 2022, Ternium began a new downstream project at the Pesquería Industrial Center, which includes a push-pull pickling line and new finishing lines already in operation, and a hot-dip galvanizing line and a cold-rolling mill that recently started operations and are ramping up production. These projects align with Ternium's strategy to strengthen its competitive position, replace imports in the Mexican market, and serve customers with a broader and more technologically advanced product portfolio.
