Question · Q4 2025
Henrique Marquez requested more details on the Pesquería upstream project, specifically asking about its potential to increase steel volumes and the expected cost savings from producing slabs in-house versus purchasing from third parties, including logistics benefits.
Answer
Máximo Vedoya (CEO, Ternium) explained that the Pesquería project is focused on the automotive industry, aligning with the USMCA's melt and pour clause for 2027, and will allow Ternium to sell more volume by replacing imports. Pablo Brizzio (CFO, Ternium) added that benefits include margin gains from in-house slab production, increased efficiency from the sophisticated facility, the ability to produce previously unavailable products, logistics savings, and future potential for increased sales volumes if the market grows.
