Alquezar

What Alquezar does

Alquezar (legal name TALLERES ALQUEZAR S.L.U.) is a privately held Spanish industrial machinery manufacturer founded in 1959 and headquartered at Polígono de Malpica, Zaragoza, Spain. The company designs, engineers, manufactures, assembles, and commissions turnkey industrial plants across four product verticals: aggregate processing (crushing, classification, washing, clarification, and filtering), concrete production (batching, mixing, and gravel-cement systems), mortar production (tower-type dry mortar plants), and recycling (concrete and construction demolition waste / RCD recovery). Underlying technology is largely mechanical and process-engineering based, including a registered granted patent on a drying and fines separation system implemented through the company's sand mill (molino arenero) for dry mortar applications, alongside complementary equipment such as the VSI VA-2250 tertiary crusher and RHT-25 drum concrete recycler. Strategic technology-supply relationships — notably with BHS Sonthofen for twin-shaft mixers — are integrated into its concrete plant offerings.

Alquezar generates revenue primarily through one-time, custom-engineered turnkey plant sales with bespoke project-by-project pricing (no publicly disclosed price list), supplemented by recurring aftermarket services including maintenance, spare parts, and technical support. Its go-to-market is sales-led and direct: it engages enterprise construction-materials clients (quarry operators, ready-mix and precast concrete producers, mortar manufacturers, and infrastructure developers) through direct project sales, complemented by participation in international trade fairs such as BAUMA (Munich), SMOPYC (Zaragoza), and SIM (Orléans), and an active social media presence across LinkedIn, Facebook, X, Instagram, TikTok, and Pinterest. Named enterprise clients include Lafarge Group, Hanson UK (Heidelberg Cement Group), CEMEX, COSENTINO, CALCINOR, Ferrovial, and PACADAR, with installations completed across Spain, Portugal, the United Kingdom, France, Algeria, Morocco, Guadeloupe, and Réunion Island. The company employs 11-50 people, holds one registered patent, and received the ANEFHOP Best Plant of the Year Award in 2024 for its OGERKO plant.

Core offering

Alquezar designs, manufactures, and commissions custom turnkey industrial processing plants for four sectors: aggregate plants (crushing, classification, washing, clarification and filtering), concrete plants (dosing, mixing, gravel-cement), mortar plants (tower-type dry mortar with drying, fines separation, screening, dosing, mixing and packaging), and recycling plants (concrete and construction demolition waste CDW/RCD). The company provides in-house engineering, manufacturing, on-site assembly and commissioning, plus aftermarket maintenance and spare parts service for installed equipment.

Product overview

Alquezar is an industrial machinery manufacturer specializing in turnkey solutions for four major product lines: Aggregate Plants (crushing, classification, washing, clarification, and filtering), Concrete Plants (dosing, mixing, and gravel-cement systems), Mortar Plants (tower-type dry mortar production), and Recycling Plants (concrete and CDD/RCD recycling). Founded in 1959 and based in Zaragoza, Spain, the company designs, manufactures, and commissions complete processing plants with a portfolio spanning equipment like VSI tertiary crushers, drum concrete recyclers, modular hoppers, and washing systems. The product range is supported by engineering, manufacturing, assembly, and aftermarket service capabilities.

Products and services

• Aggregate Plants Turnkey plants for the aggregates sector covering crushing, classification and grading, washing, and clarification and filtering systems designed for quarrying operations and raw material processors.
• Concrete Plants Complete concrete batching and production plants with dosing, mixing, and gravel-cement systems for ready-mixed concrete manufacturers and precast concrete producers. Configurations include twin-shaft mixer setups such as BHS Sonthofen units for high-capacity applications.
• Mortar Plants Tower-type mortar production plants with crushing, drying, fines separation, sand screening and storage, dosing, mixing, bulk discharge, and bagging capabilities for dry mortar manufacturers. The system incorporates a patented drying and fines separation sand mill (molino arenero).
• Recycling Plants Plants for recycling concrete and construction demolition debris (CDD/RCD), transforming waste materials into reusable aggregates for construction applications.
• VSI VA-2250 Tertiary Crusher High-performance tertiary VSI crusher designed for maximum operating efficiency, producing exceptionally high-quality sand with versatile applications in aggregate and mortar production plants.
• RHT-25 Drum Concrete Recycler Concrete recycling unit consisting of a metal drum into which concrete to be recycled is introduced with water, producing drained aggregate and recycled water with the lowest possible concentration of solids.
• Modular Hoppers Modular hopper equipment designed for easy assembly and transport, used for extraction of raw alluvial aggregates in quarrying and aggregate processing operations.
• Aggregate Washing Plants Complete washing systems integrating disc screens, stone washing units, sand washing systems, water treatment equipment, optical separators, and stockpiles with tripper conveyors for aggregate processing operations.
• Engineering Services Design and engineering of turnkey projects tailored to specific client requirements for aggregates, mortar, and concrete processing plants.
• Manufacturing Services In-house manufacturing of industrial machinery and plant equipment at the Zaragoza facility for aggregates, concrete, mortar, and recycling plant projects.
• Assembly and Commissioning Services On-site installation and startup services for complete plant systems, delivered as part of turnkey plant projects for aggregates, concrete, mortar, and recycling applications.
• Aftermarket Service Post-sale support, maintenance, and spare parts service for installed equipment and plants across the aggregates, concrete, mortar, and recycling product lines.
