In July 2025, Aspen Aerogels, Inc. fully acquired OPE Manufacturer Mexico, a maquiladora specializing in PyroThin assembly. This strategic acquisition integrates a critical component of the company's supply chain for its PyroThin thermal barriers. The full ownership of OPE Manufacturer Mexico is expected to enhance Aspen Aerogels' operational control and efficiency in the production and assembly of its PyroThin products. This move aligns with the company's strategy to build a flexible and resilient global supply chain. By consolidating this assembly capability, Aspen Aerogels aims to mitigate risks associated with fluctuating tariff scenarios and better serve U.S.-based OEMs who increasingly prioritize domestic supply. This acquisition is a step towards optimizing the company's manufacturing footprint and ensuring reliable supply for its growing EV thermal barrier business.
