This exciting and expansive development is currently eight months in and already signs of major progress are beginning to show.

Mexico Layout - MAT FoundryThe purchase of key plant has been completed and the construction of the remodelled facility is well under way. Installation of the plant will commenced in September 2016 with production trials planned for June 2017.

Divided into two distinct phases, the expansion initially focuses on a facility capable of producing 30,000 metric tonnes of castings per annum. This will include DISAmatic moulding technology, induction melting, automated pouring and casting finishing processes.

This programme of expansion will allow the MAT Foundry Group to supply both ductile and grey iron automotive components to its global partners located in Mexico and the United States.

In addition to these automotive components, Mincer HD will continue to supply current customers with quality components in the heavy truck, trailer, and commercial vehicle markets in North, Central, and South America.
