Industrial plant dismantling for Mexican companies that relocate their operations

Jan 14, 2025 | APC Services

Industrial plant dismantling is not just a logistical task, but a strategic decision that can define a company’s future. As Mexican companies look to relocate their industrial operations to leverage competitive advantages in new regions, it is crucial to have a dismantling process that is efficient, safe and aligned with their business objectives.

With the growing trend of nearshoring and the rise of manufacturing industries in Mexico, many organizations are relocating their operations to adapt to new markets. However, this process involves complex challenges, such as logistics coordination, asset preservation and regulatory compliance. At APC Industrial we understand these challenges, so we want to offer comprehensive solutions that turn all these challenges into an opportunity for expansion and optimization.

What is industrial plant dismantling?

 

Industrial plant dismantling involves dismantling and moving machinery, equipment and structures, either to reuse them in a new location or to remove them permanently. This process requires not only specialized technical knowledge, but also strategic planning to minimize risks, maximize the use of resources and ensure operational continuity.

 

Main reasons for industrial dismantling

  • Strategic re-location: Moving to regions with greater access to key markets or tax incentives.
  • Expansion of operations: Adaptation to new facilities to increase production capacity.
  • Asset optimization: Technological upgrading of equipment or reuse in different production lines.

 

Benefits of an efficient industrial dismantling

 

  1. Cost reduction

Well-planned dismantling allows companies to identify reusable equipment, reducing the need for new acquisitions. In addition, the proper management of industrial waste and residues can generate significant savings.

 

  1. Resource optimization

Reusing existing machinery in a new plant or production line maximizes return on investment and reduces environmental impact.

 

  1. Regulatory compliance

The industrial dismantling process must comply with strict safety and environmental regulations. By working with experts like APC, companies ensure that every step is aligned with applicable regulations.

 

  1. Adapting to new demands

Moving to a new location allows for redesigning production processes, integrating advanced technology and improving operational efficiency.

 

Key stages of industrial plant dismantlement

 

Initial assessment

The first step is to perform a complete diagnosis of the assets and facilities. This includes:

  • Identification of critical machinery and equipment.
  • Assessment of risks associated with the dismantling process.
  • Definition of a schedule that minimizes operational interruptions.

 

Dismantling and handling of equipment

The dismantling of heavy machinery and structures requires specialized equipment and trained personnel. The rigging services offered by APC ensure safe and efficient handling of the most valuable assets.

 

Transportation and logistics

Moving machinery involves coordinating specialized transportation to ensure the integrity of the equipment. APC Industrial manages the complete logistics, from packing to transportation to the new site.

 

Installation at the new location

The process culminates with the installation of machinery at the new facility. This may include:

 

Important considerations in industrial dismantling

 

Safety
