For a more connected and fast-moving world

Steel is used for the manufacturing of means of transport as well as for their supporting infrastructure and systems.
Many parts of trains, ships and planes, as well as rails, tunnels, bridges, and even service or freight stations use steel in different ways.
At Ternium we use steel to provide robust, safe and sustainable solutions that improve the mobility of people and goods.

Advantages and features

All the tracks on which trains run are made of steel and have a useful life of between 30 and 35 years.
As far as sea transport is concerned, it is the most efficient means and has the least environmental impact.
