Our history

We were born in Asturias in 2003 and, since then, we have acquired several local machinery rental companies until 2008. In parallel, in 2006, we became the only company in the sector listed on the Spanish stock market. That same year, we started our internationalization project in Romania and Bulgaria, reaching to expand to Latin America, Saudi Arabia, Morocco and the Dominican Republic between 2008 and 2023. In recent years, we have focused our efforts on the Iberian Peninsula, Morocco and Latin America, expanding and diversifying our lines of business.
