WHY CALCINOR

Our roots are in the 1950’s when Fidel Azcabide established a lime and gypsum factory

Our search for quality and guaranteed supplies means we have a constant need to find our own raw materials so that we can meet our customers’ needs.

OUR EXPERIENCE

As a result of this demand our production processes incorporated the first ever regenerative Maerz kiln; that was back in 1973. Over the last 40 years Calcinor has developed into a business group entering new markets through organic growth and through the acquisition of strategic companies at national and international level.

The company strategy is based on the diversification of markets and products, typical of an entrepreneurial mind-set, and one that guarantees sustained growth over time. Our differentiation from competitors – as in previous eras – is still based on a good-understanding and collaboration with our customers, the use of the best available techniques, flexibility in production, a wide range of products and a shareholder vision that guarantees a long-term existence.

The development of Calcinor continues in the 21st century, opening up new markets such as those of refractories or precipitated calcium carbonate. In the same way, the arrival on the international market resulted in strategic alliances with local partners for the supply of new territories, such as Maghreb and Eastern Europe.

Calcinor is currently a holding company for around 21 firms and has around 2.000 employees, it has a manufacturing presence on two continents and supplies markets on the five continents. It has a diverse business structure that started out in the mining sector, at several quarries. Calcinor has been able to penetrate numerous sectors by employing a wide range of products with the use of industrial processes based on cutting-edge technologies.
