Metal Structures & Iron Products Manufacturing in Mexico industry analysis

The Metal Structures and Iron Products Manufacturing industry in Mexico has tamed much of the revenue volatility it experienced in the past; however, the industry has grown at a dampened pace over the five years to 2019. Operators in this industry are primarily engaged in the manufacturing of metal products for structural and architectural purposes. Products produced by the industry include reinforcing bars, bar joists, towers, bridge sections, metal plates, windows, doors, gates, fire escapes, stairs and prefabricated metal buildings such as silos and warehouses. The industry's product range is vast and diverse with many potential downstream industries purchasing these products for a variety of different projects. As a result, the performance of the industry is reliant on the general growth of the economy and its outlook, which drives investment in construction projects that bolster demand. The industry is affected by interest rates that foment investments and exchange rates that can affect trade patterns. The rise of exports to the United States and increasing domestic demand has promoted growth in the industry. However, construction declines in certain sectors, such as transportation and utilities, have limited demand. Over the five years to 2019, the industry is expected to grow an annualized 0.9% to MXN $68.1 billion, including expected growth of 1.2% in 2019 alone as the value of residential and nonresidential construction grows.
