Spanish maker of metal auto body structures and chassis parts, stamped and welded for automakers worldwide.
Spanish maker of metal auto body structures and chassis parts, stamped and welded for automakers worldwide.
Wins contracts for a specific vehicle platform two or three years before launch, then supplies parts per vehicle built; steel is its main raw material and most price changes are contractually passed through to the carmaker with a lag. It operates plants near its customers' factories worldwide. The Riberas family's holding company controls it.
In one line: A metal-stamping Magna International.
Moat: narrow (scale, process know-how, customer qualification). Long-run OEM contracts and hot-stamping expertise, but auto-parts pricing is competitive and capital-intensive.
Headquarters: Madrid, Spain · Founded: 1997 · Employees: 42,466
