AkzoNobel has opened a new production line for coil coatings at its facility in Garcia, Mexico.
As well as doubling current capacity, the new line will also serve local coated steel manufacturers, including Ternium, Zincacero and Galvasid. Products manufactured at the site support the construction and domestic appliance sectors. In addition, the new line will produce speciality products, including metallic and ‘wrinkled’ finishes. Volumes currently imported from the USA will now be manufactured in Mexico.
