Ternium S.A. is a manufacturer of flat and long steel products with production centers in Argentina, Brazil, Mexico, Guatemala, Colombia, and the United States. Ternium owns a 51.5% interest in Usiminas of Brazil. The company has an annual production capacity of 15.4 million tons.[1] In 2023, 55% of its sales were from Mexico; 21% of sales were from Argentina; Bolivia, Chile, Paraguay and Uruguay; 13% of sales were from Brazil; and 11% of sales were from the United States, Colombia and Central America.[1]

Approximately 21% of the company is publicly traded; the remainder is controlled by San Faustin S.A., which is in turn controlled by Rocca & Partners Stichting Administratiekantoor Aandelen San Faustin, a Stichting.[1]

The company takes its name from the Latin words Ter (three) and Eternium (eternal) in reference to the integration of the three steel mills.

History

[edit]

Ternium was formed in 2005 by the consolidation of three companies: Siderar of Argentina, SIDOR of Venezuela and Hylsa (es) of Mexico.

In 2006, Ternium was listed on the New York Stock Exchange.[1]

In 2007, Ternium acquired Grupo IMSA, expanding its operations into Guatemala and the United States.[1][2]

In April 2008, after a series of worker disputes over pay which led to strike actions, SIDOR was nationalized by the government of Venezuela.[3][4] In May 2009, compensation of US$1.65 billion was paid for Ternium's 59.7% stake in SIDOR.[5]

In August 2010, Ternium acquired a 54% interest in Ferrasa, and in April 2015, Ternium acquired the remainder of the company, which was renamed Ternium Colombia.[1][6]

In 2017, Ternium acquired CSA Siderúrgica do Atlântico for €1.4 billion and renamed it Ternium Brazil.[7]

In July 2023, Ternium increased its ownership in Usiminas to 51.5%.[8]
