Delta Tecnic Opens Mexico Plant to Expand Masterbatch Production

Delta Tecnic, a Spain-based specialist in color concentrates and masterbatch solutions, has opened a new manufacturing plant in Querétaro, Mexico. The facility marks the first site in the country dedicated to color concentrates for automotive wire and cable and related applications.

New Production Facility in Mexico

Delta Tecnic designed the Querétaro plant to produce masterbatch products for distribution across the Americas. The facility currently spans 3,000 square meters, with plans to expand to 5,000 square meters as demand grows.

The company employs 10 workers at launch and expects to grow its workforce to 20–40 employees within one year. This expansion strengthens Delta Tecnic’s ability to serve regional markets more efficiently.

Global Manufacturing and Expertise

Delta Tecnic operates two additional production plants in Sant Celoni (Barcelona), covering a total of 15,000 square feet and employing 160 staff members. Since launching its Deltacolor Masterbatch division in 1989, the company has expanded its global reach and now exports to more than 50 countries.

Advanced Masterbatch Technology

The company continues to innovate with its micromasterbatch technology, which features smaller pellet sizes that improve dispersion during cable extrusion. These solutions work with PVC and polyolefins, delivering:

  • Better color consistency and homogeneity

  • Improved product quality

  • Faster cable production speeds

  • Lower manufacturing costs

Growth in Key Industries

Delta Tecnic targets growth in several high-demand sectors, including automotive, renewable energy, and telecommunications. The company supports applications such as wind and photovoltaic energy cabling, as well as wiring for household appliances.

Rising demand for energy-efficient solutions continues to drive innovation in thermal insulation materials and complex cable designs, especially in construction and infrastructure projects.

Strategic Expansion Vision

CEO Eric Xirinachs emphasized that innovation drives Delta Tecnic’s growth strategy. He expects the new Mexico facility to strengthen the company’s position as a global technology leader while enabling it to supply advanced materials to industries worldwide.
