What Euro-Equip does

Euro-Equip, S.L. is a Lezama, Spain-based, privately held industrial engineering firm founded in 1974 that designs and supplies turnkey equipment solutions to metal-casting foundries across Spain and, increasingly, international markets. The company covers the full foundry value chain — scrap preparation, melting, holding, pouring, inoculation, slag removal, moulding, sand preparation, demoulding, finishing (shot blasting), fume extraction, and casting simulation — through a combination of proprietary products manufactured in-house or under license and exclusive Spanish/Iberian representation rights for global brands including ABP Induction, DISA, MAGMA, Nederman, PourTech, Wheelabrator, and Yuatsuki. Notable proprietary technologies include the FASTpour high-speed pouring system for DISA moulding lines, the JetHood induction-furnace extraction hood, computer-vision-based pouring and inoculation control systems, and an automated articulated arm for furnace slag removal.

The company's go-to-market is direct enterprise field sales supported by an in-house Technical Office with mechanical and electrical engineering departments, plus a network of regional sales agents covering 13 countries across Europe, Latin America, Africa, and the Middle East. Revenue is generated primarily through one-time capital-equipment sales and turnkey plant installations, supplemented by recurring after-sales service, a warehouse of more than 4,000 spare parts references, and software licensing through its exclusive MAGMA5 representation in Spain and Portugal. Named customers include Funderia Condals (Spain and its SKC Foundry greenfield in Slovakia), and via the ABP partnership, TISCO in China.

Euro-Equip is a small, founder-operated business (11–50 employees) with no disclosed funding, institutional investors, acquisitions, or executive leadership changes on record. Its growth lever is the continuous refresh of its proprietary product portfolio (FASTpour 2013, JetHood 2014, vision-based pouring/inoculation 2018, automated slag arm 2019) and selective international turnkey project wins, underwritten by long-tenured exclusive agency agreements that double as barriers to entry for new entrants targeting the Spanish foundry sector.
