And the growing demand for automobiles
The automotive sector is one of the main drivers of growth in the forging market in Mexico. Given that Mexico is a major automotive manufacturing hub, the demand for forged components has increased in recent years. For example, according to industry reports, in 2024, Mexico's automotive industry accounted for 3.6% of the country's total GDP and 17.6% of its manufacturing output. As a leading vehicle producer, Mexico plays a central role in the global automotive supply chains, particularly in North America. Specifically, approximately 18% of all cars sold in the U.S. were manufactured in Mexico, underscoring its importance as a production center for the region. Automakers require high-quality forged components for crucial parts such as engine blocks, crankshafts, and suspension components. The increase in vehicle manufacturing, especially by multinational companies operating in the country, has boosted the demand for these components. The transition to electric vehicles (EVs) is defining new forging requirements, as EVs need specialized components for batteries, motors, and body frames. As the automotive industry continues to grow, it will play a key role in the development of the forging market in Mexico, inspiring competition and innovation in forging technology.
Increased demand in the aerospace and industrial sectors
The aerospace and industrial sectors in Mexico are demonstrating strong demand for forged parts, driving the Mexican forging market. With the growth of the aerospace industry in Mexico, particularly with the opening of manufacturing plants by major aerospace companies such as Airbus, Bombardier, and Boeing, there is increasing demand for precision forged parts for use in fuselages, engines, and turbines. In addition, the demand for heavy machinery parts and equipment components from the industrial sector is fueling demand for forged parts. As Mexico expands its industrial base, the demand for quality forged components will grow, further solidifying the market's direction. For example, in October 2024, ArcelorMittal Mexico announced plans to resume operations at its blast furnace in Lázaro Cárdenas, Michoacán, after nearly five months of inactivity due to a labor dispute. The restart will allow the production of long steel products, including wire rod and rebar, with an annual capacity of 1.5 million metric tons. With this measure, the plant's total production capacity returns to 5.3 million metric tons per year. Consequently, this sector is expected to play a significant role in the growth of the forging market in Mexico in the coming years.
