About Nemak
Nemak is an international provider of lightweight solutions for the global automotive industry with a focus on the development and manufacture of multi-material components for powertrain and body structure. The portfolio includes cylinder heads, engine blocks, transmission housings, e-housings, structural and chassis components as well as assembled BEV battery enclosures. Production is carried out using processes such as HPDC (aluminum and magnesium), GSPM, Rotacast®, LPDC, CPS® sand casting and sand casting for ductile iron, complemented by CNC machining, heat treatment, joining and assembly technology. Nemak operates 53 production facilities and 12 development centers in 16 countries, including German locations in Dillingen/Saar, Pilsting and Wernigerode, the Engineering Center Raunheim/Frankfurt as well as plants in Linz and Altenmarkt (Austria). In 2026, integration of the GF Casting Solutions Automotive Business begins, including the Suzhou, Shenyang and Kunshan locations.
