The new site will expand Bodycote&#8217;s North American footprint and provide additional regional capacity to support customers across Mexico and the southern United States, helping reduce logistics complexity and strengthen supply-chain resilience for OEMs and tier suppliers operating in the region&#8217;s automotive, aerospace, and industrial markets. The Apodaca facility will offer precision heat treatment capabilities including case hardening and nitriding processes such as carburizing, carbonitriding, and nitrocarburizing, technologies widely used to improve wear resistance, fatigue performance, and dimensional stability in critical drivetrain, gearing, and structural components. The new site complements Bodycote&#8217;s existing North American network and reflects continued investment by the group in geographic capacity expansion and customer-proximate service. Bodycote is the world&#8217;s largest provider of heat treatment and specialist thermal processing services, operating more than 165 facilities across 22 countries with capabilities spanning vacuum heat treatment, hot isostatic pressing, surface engineering, and advanced thermal processing technologies. The company serves a broad customer base across aerospace, automotive, defense, energy, medical, and general industrial markets, and continues to invest in both new geographies and decarbonized process technologies to support its customers&#8217; performance and sustainability goals.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"external-link\" href=\"https:\/\/www.bodycote.com\/press-releases\/press-releases-2026\/bodycote-announces-new-heat-treatment-facility-in-monterrey-mexico\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\" aria-label=\"https:\/\/www.bodycote.com\/press-releases\/press-releases-2026\/bodycote-announces-new-heat-treatment-facility-in-monterrey-mexico\/\" data-tooltip-position=\"top\">Read further here<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Bodycote, Macclesfield, England, plans to open a new heat treatment facility in Apodaca, in the Monterrey metropolitan area of Mexico.
