Expansion update: SLRC Phase 2

InsulTech continues to make progress on the expansion of its operations in San Luis Rio Colorado (SLRC), Sonora Mexico. This site was opened in 2021 with an initial footprint of 30,000 SF of sewn fabric insulation production space. Since then, the facility has been expanded to include metallic foil insulation production and an incremental 15,000 SF was added.

InsulTech’s new facility, pictured below, more than doubles this footprint with 120,000 SF of initial manufacturing space and the ability to expand to over 240,000 SF.

InsulTech has successfully launched both foil and fabric operations thanks to excellent efforts by its production team, led by Production Leader Arturo Flores. Sheet metal operations will come online in Q4 2024.

We are excited for the opportunity to expand our capabilities in this strategic manufacturing location. We are open for business and actively seeking programs to tool-up.

InsulTech to Expand SLRC Site

InsulTech is pleased to announce an expansion of its San Luis Rio Colorado (SLRC), Sonora Mexico facility. This facility was opened in 2021 with an initial footprint of 30,000 SF of sewn fabric insulation production space. Since then, the facility has been expanded to include metallic foil insulation production and an incremental 15,000 SF was added.

InsulTech’s new facility will more than double this footprint, with 110,000 SF of initial manufacturing space and the ability to expand to over 200,000 SF.  In the coming months, InsulTech will launch operations to support both sewn fabric and foil insulation product types.

“SLRC  is a strategic investment site for InsulTech,” said Sean Deshler, Commercial Director. “The combination of excellent labor, border proximity, and competitive costs allow InsulTech to achieve quality, speed and cost at scale.”

Lighting and climate control system improvements are currently underway. InsulTech expects production to begin in July 2024.

Product Spotlight: T3000 Foil Encapsulated Heat Shields

T3000 foil encapsulated heat shields are abrasion resistant and designed to be environmentally impervious to the elements that impact on-highway vehicles, power generation equipment, gas turbines and other applications. They also resist vibration, and can withstand intermittent flame exposure without permanent deformation.

The total encapsulation achieved welding foil skins using AWS D17.2 resistance welding performed within InsulTech's Nadcap Accredited welding program.

InsulTech can provide design and material options options to increase stiffness and service life, and enhance appearance.

InsulTech's in house tooling capabilities allow for rapid response on a wide range of geometries . Learn more.
