The metal industry, and especially the steel sheet market, went through a year of consolidation, adjustments and preparation for a future that looks as full of opportunities as it is of uncertainties.
Ferros Texar closed the year with the clear feeling of having done our homework well. Our goals focused on growing where it made sense, strengthening our internal capabilities and keeping intact our DNA of commitment, seriousness and closeness to the client.
2025 review: production and specialization in steel sheets
During 2025, Ferros Texar maintained solid production activity, focused on the supply of steel sheets for different industrial processes and strategic sectors. Total production volume was 7,800 metric tons, distributed as follows:
This distribution confirms that the market increasingly demands steel sheets adapted to specific processes, with tight tolerances and immediate availability.
At Ferros Texar we have responded to these needs by reinforcing our permanent stock, improving planning and betting on an ever wider range of grades.
2025 investments: technology, marketing and knowledge
In such a changeable market, also at the mercy of the shifts caused by US tariff policies, 2025 was a year of strategic investment — not so much in large infrastructure, but in areas that add real, lasting value in the medium and long term, built on four pillars:
- Investment in marketing and positioning
- CRM implementation and improvement
- Artificial Intelligence training
- Progress in sustainability
In other words, Ferros Texar focused on investing in what helps us generate business.
Spain, Ferros Texar’s main market for steel sheets
During 2025, the domestic market continued to be the central axis of Ferros Texar’s activity. Spain accounts for virtually all of our sales and is where we can best add value thanks to:
-
- Geographic proximity.
- Deep knowledge of the industrial fabric.
- Fast response capability.
- Permanent stock of steel sheets.
Reinforcing the domestic market was a strategic decision that brought stability and confidence to both our customers and our own team.
Ferros Texar’s biggest challenges in 2025
2025 was, generally speaking, a good year for us, thanks also to our ability to adapt to market needs and the effort dedicated to our clients’ projects.
Growth of the shearing division
Demand for shear cutting has grown notably, driven by clients seeking speed, specific formats and cost optimization. This growth has forced us to improve processes, planning and internal coordination.
Addition of new grades
The market demands ever more diversity from us. In 2025 we worked on adding new steel sheet grades, adapting to sectors with more demanding technical requirements.
Consolidation of projects
Beyond winning new clients, one of the biggest challenges has been consolidating existing projects, demonstrating reliability, continuity and adaptability.
Key segments for steel sheet growth
Looking ahead to 2026, we have identified several segments with high potential to keep growing.
- RMig, the pet food sector: an expanding market that demands quality steel sheets with high hygiene and safety standards.
- Anti-wear sheet for construction machinery: public works and heavy machinery continue to need resistant materials, where anti-wear sheet plays a fundamental role.
- Shear-cutting clients: broadening the shear-cutting client base, betting on diversity and flexibility, will be another of our strategic pillars.
2026 forecasts and strategy for the steel sheet sector
As things stand, talking about 2026 means accepting a high degree of uncertainty.
We start the year with regulatory changes such as the entry into force of the CBAM and an unpredictable economic (and geopolitical) context that could affect demand for our products, which forces us to be cautious.
Even so, at Ferros Texar we face the new year with a clear strategy based on continuing to build loyalty with our clients and setting our goals around realistic growth expectations.
In the words of Ernest, our CEO, the wish that guides Ferros Texar looking ahead to 2026 is clear and simple:
“Keep doing things properly, without losing our DNA of commitment to the client and seriousness. The rest, as always, will depend on our clients, on them helping us to grow.”
