Axalta Coating Systems has announced a commitment to invest US$10.5M in Tlalnepantla, Mexico, to expand capacity to produce resins used in the manufacture of transportation coatings.
The investment is intended to enhance and expand the capability of the Tlalnepantla operations centre, one of three manufacturing locations for Axalta in Mexico and headquarters of the company’s businesses in Latin America.
"This investment underscores the company’s commitment to support our continued growth in Mexico with locally produced coatings,” explained Jorge Cossio, President, Latin America for Axalta.
