2022 marks the beginning of a new decade for Indaux. We are now 60 years old and we continue with the same enthusiasm and motivation as on the first day. Our commitment to this business project is more present than ever, and we are ready to continue improving as a team.

It has been 6 decades of effort, perseverance and dedication, but, above all, passion for what we do. This would not have been possible without each and every one of the people who have been part of this wonderful team.

“Learn – Re-Learn – Unlearn” is the cycle of improvement that we have followed during this period of time to be able to provide our customers with the solutions they need and then turn them into an industrial product.

We do not have any magic recipe but if we add the support of our Customers + the Knowledge of our people + the Investment commitment of our property, the result has been a business trajectory of 60 years by your side.

Thank you very much to all those who have made this business history possible.

From theory to practice: integration of women in the industrial sector

Iratxe NuñezDuring the 1960s, the Indaux workshops came to host almost 30 women, but today the female presence in the workshop is reduced to 7 women, compared to 113 men. Indaux has promoted the atraction of female talent to the worshops and encourage the interest of studying an Industrial VET among the female public. There are still few women who dare to break with stereotypes and study vocational training in industrial specialties.

This February, the Getaria mechanical workshop hired a trainee. It is Iratxe Nuñez, who has completed a higher degree in mechanical manufacturing production programming. “I feel very confortable at Indaux . My colleagues help me and when I have any questions they always attend me with kindness. I also like the work. It is not monotonous. I would like to learn a little about everything, because I think being versatile is better than mastering a single task. I am very grateful to Indaux for this opportunity ”, she says.
