Barga Group, a family-owned industrial manufacturer based in Navarre in northern Spain, has expanded its manufacturing capacity in India with the relocation of its plant to a larger facility in Tamil Nadu, strengthening its international production footprint and supporting medium-term growth plans.

The group has moved its Indian operations from the Oragadam Industrial Corridor in Mathur, Tamil Nadu, to a new site in Devariyambakkam, located around 15 minutes from the previous facility. The relocation in India expands the plant’s built-up area to 3,500 square metres from 1,700 square metres at the previous site, increasing available manufacturing space and supporting higher production capacity.

The India facility produces platforms, railings and steel or aluminium supports for the wind power sector. The new plant offers increased floor space, improved internal layout and more efficient infrastructure, enabling higher production capacity and the ability to undertake additional manufacturing programmes. Core processes at the India site continue to include laser cutting, bending and welding, aligned with the group’s established production standards.

The India relocation complements Barga Group’s broader manufacturing network, which also includes facilities in Lakuntza and Zaragoza in Spain. The Lakuntza plant carries out sheet and tube metal processing through laser cutting, folding, welding and packaging, and focuses on components for the wind energy sector such as platforms, railings and steel or aluminium supports. The Zaragoza facility serves a different industrial segment, producing components including drums, tanks and ladders for cement mixer trucks.

Barga Group employs around 250 people across its operations in Spain and India. The Lakuntza facility accounts for about 70 percent of group turnover, while the India plant supports international customers and contributes to capacity balancing across regions.

The capacity expansion in India aligns with the group’s medium-term production strategy, which includes plans to double output over the next six to seven years. To support this objective and address labour availability constraints, the company is advancing automation initiatives, including the introduction of robotic cells and more automated production systems.

Leadership changes form part of this broader strategic phase. In May 2025, Pablo Muro was appointed chief executive officer following the retirement of Xabier Troyas. Muro, an industrial engineer with prior experience at Siemens Gamesa and Nordex, has been tasked with modernising internal processes, scaling production and strengthening the group’s international operations.

Barga Group is targeting a turnover of EUR 30 million in 2026, compared with an expected EUR 24 million in 2025. Its customer base includes companies such as Vestas, General Electric, Siemens Gamesa, Nordex Group and Envision, primarily serving the wind energy sector alongside selected industrial applications.
