The wholly owned SAG subsidiary &#8211; with a total of three locations in Mexico and more than 290 employees &#8211; will pursue two goals in the coming years: Achievement of the EUR 100 million annual sales target by 2021 and market leadership in the NAFTA region in the truck fuel tank product segment.<\/p>\n<p>&#8220;Developments in the North American automotive market offer us far-reaching opportunities. For this reason, we are planning to expand our Mexican product portfolio and intensify our North American business,&#8221; explains Hannes Rest, Press Officer and Head of Global Communications at SAG.<\/p>\n<p>Only this year, the Austrian holding company took over 100 percent of the three plants of SAG Mecasa S.A. de C.V. and SAG Mecalaser S.A. de C.V.. As a supplier for the NAFTA region, the Mexican SAG plants supply renowned OEMs (Original Equipment Manufacturers) with innovative and high-quality solutions, such as energy storage and fuel tanks, for trucks (trucks) and air storage systems for passenger cars (cars).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p><strong>NAFTA region offers new business potential<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>By taking over the locations and developing the entire North American market, SAG is opening a door to new international customers. &#8220;The NAFTA region experiences an upswing. Especially the production figures of light vehicles &amp; light trucks, vehicles up to six tons, will increase in the near future&#8221;, says Rest. Contrary to this development, production figures for heavy trucks (over six tons) are stagnating. New and existing customers are soon to be offered an expanded product portfolio from a single source, which also includes, for example, air reservoirs for motor vehicles.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Intensification of business with start at the NACV Show<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>At the end of September, the Salzburg-based Aluminium Group presented innovative and sustainable solutions &#8211; e.g. fuel tanks, air reservoirs and lightweight components &#8211; at this year&#8217;s North American Commercial Vehicle Show in Atlanta, Georgia (USA). Hannes Rest, commented: &#8220;The event was an ideal platform for presenting our SAG solutions. In addition, we were able to address new potential customers and networks directly on site&#8221;. The NACV Show is one of the largest events of the automotive industry worldwide. Around 400 exhibitors, including well-known OEMs and manufacturers such as Volvo, Daimler and Magna International, took part in the exhibition.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Vienna, 9 October 2017: The NAFTA (North American Free Trade Agreement) area has been successfully supplied by SAG MECASA since 2009.
