With its privileged location in the Ebro Valley, an excellent communications network and a concentration of industrial talent, <\/span>Zaragoza <\/b>and, in turn,<\/span> Arag\u00f3n<\/b> are consolidating their position as one of the most active areas with the greatest growth potential in the <\/span>metal industry in Spain<\/b><\/a>. <\/span><\/p>\n

Ferros Texar<\/b>, as <\/span>specialized distributors of steel sheet for the metal industry<\/b>, have been serving clients in this area for years, and we know that the <\/span>metal industry in Arag\u00f3n<\/a>, and specifically Huesca and Zaragoza,<\/b> demands agility, precision and trust. And that's exactly what <\/span>Ferros Texar<\/b> can offer. <\/span><\/p>\n

A booming sector for the Aragonese economy<\/b><\/strong><\/h2>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

The <\/span>metal industry in Arag\u00f3n, <\/b>according to data from the<\/span> Federation of Metal Employers of Zaragoza (FEMZ)<\/b>, doesn't only carry economic weight \u2014 it is directly one of the pillars of regional GDP. With more than 8,500 companies linked to the sector and around 100,000 jobs, metal accounts for approximately 21% of the region's GDP<\/span> and <\/span>for <\/b>18% of total employment<\/span>.<\/b><\/p>\n

The province of <\/span>Zaragoza<\/b> concentrates the bulk of the activity: more than 2,000 companies, more than 17,000 workers and an ecosystem that spans <\/span>metalwork shops<\/b>, chrome plating<\/span>, <\/b>structural fabrication, right through to electrical equipment<\/span>, <\/b>automotive<\/span> and<\/span> industrial installations. All of this within a stable labor-regulation framework, thanks to the sector's collective agreement, which remains in force until 2026.<\/span><\/p>\n

Zaragoza, the metalworking capital of Arag\u00f3n<\/b><\/strong><\/h2>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

The <\/span>Zaragoza metal industry<\/b> is not a promise for the future, but an established reality. Of the 2,217 economic activities registered in <\/span>Arag\u00f3n<\/b> under the category of \"<\/span>Metallurgy and metal products<\/b>\" according to data from the Aragonese Institute of Statistics, almost 70% are based in <\/span>Zaragoza<\/b>. Different industrial hubs around the capital that give life to the region's productive heart.<\/span><\/p>\n

We're not talking about a single type of industry. <\/span>Zaragoza's metalworking companies<\/b> range from small <\/span>family-run metalwork shops<\/b> to large companies linked to the <\/span>steel industry<\/b>, <\/span>the automotive sector<\/b>, or the <\/span>manufacture of technical parts<\/b> for agricultural or rail machinery.<\/span><\/p>\n
