The Indicador de Economia recently highlighted MaserGrup in an article titled “MaserGrup and the Challenges of the Industry of the Future”, which emphasizes the group’s trajectory and its innovation perspectives for 2026 in the different sectors in which it operates.
MaserGrup is an industrial group with a strong commitment to responsible innovation, which serves as a driver for transformation, decarbonization, and long-term value creation. With a growth model based on diversification, productive efficiency, and applied innovation, the group has positioned itself as a benchmark in the sectors where it operates.
Currently, MaserGrup has five factories, three in Spain and two in Chile and Colombia, and offices in Germany, Switzerland, USA, Mexico, and China, which strengthens its international projection and operational capacity. The experience accumulated in areas such as food, industry, and real estate management allows the group to face with confidence the challenges that will shape the economic agenda in the coming years.
Innovation and Public-Private Collaboration
One of MaserGrup’s pillars of innovation is public-private collaboration. Currently, the group is developing nine projects under this framework with a total budget of €8.7 million, of which €3.2 million come from public funds, combining loans and direct grants, while the rest corresponds to private contributions from the group. This mixed funding model reflects the confidence of public administrations in MaserGrup’s ability to transform innovation into tangible industrial results.
The projects focus on key areas such as process optimization, energy efficiency, environmental impact reduction, and the development of new products aligned with responsible resource management. These initiatives not only strengthen business competitiveness but also generate qualified employment and stimulate the industrial ecosystem.
R&D&I and Industrial Investment: Sustainability, Progress, and Resilience
MaserGrup’s current project portfolio shows a balance between research, development, and innovation (R&D&I) and industrial investment, with seven R&D&I projects totaling €3.7 million and two industrial investment projects amounting to €5 million. This combination reflects a strategy aimed not only at innovating but also at effectively and profitably implementing that innovation in production.
Looking ahead to 2026, MaserGrup will reinforce this strategy with a stronger focus on advanced automation, industrial plant digitalization, and intensive use of data to optimize performance and resource usage.
The Keys to Industrial Innovation in 2026
According to MaserGrup, three main axes will mark industrial innovation next year:
- Sustainability, evolving from a differentiating factor to a structural requirement.
- Intelligent and predictive digitalization, with real-time monitoring systems and artificial intelligence.
- Open and collaborative innovation, through cooperation with technology centers, universities, and other ecosystem players to accelerate the development and market launch of new solutions.
With this vision, MaserGrup reaffirms its commitment to a more efficient, responsible and prepared industry for future challenges as explained in the Economy Indicator article.
