Mexican steelmaker Talleres y Aceros S.A. de C.V. (TYASA) has announced the inauguration of the first phase of its special steel project on May 25, expanding its footprint in the high-quality steel segment.
Located at the company's steel complex in Ixtaczoquitlán, Veracruz, the new facility has an annual production capacity of 400,000 tonnes. It is designed to meet demand from the automotive, metalworking, oil and gas, energy, and tool manufacturing industries, among others.
During the first phase, the facility will produce round bars with diameters ranging from 0.5 inches to 4 inches, as well as hot-rolled flat bars with widths of 2–4 inches and thicknesses from 5/16 inch to 1 inch.
Total investment in the project amounted to $250 million. Over the development, construction, and commissioning phases, the project created 250 direct jobs and more than 3,000 indirect jobs.
With the launch of the first phase of the special steel project, TYASA's total annual production capacity has reached 1.6 million tonnes. The company stated that this project marks the beginning of a new stage in its development, consolidating its position as the only producer in Mexico active across the full range of steels---including commercial long products, flat steels, and special steels for high-performance industrial applications.
