The history of Casals goes back to the end of the XIX century (1881) when the founder Francesc Casals Fransoy opened a small workshop in the centre of Ripoll (Girona). From the mechanizing of the cast iron pieces and the making of machinery for factories and workshops, this small business developed through the years and became a business dedicated to the manufacturing of spare parts for tools and afterwards to the tooling manufacturing.
In 1924 Casals started manufacturing the first models of industrial fans. At first the series production systems were applied but they developed into the current and modern lines of production. In this way Casals became the leader of the industry.
With time, Talleres Casals diversified the production and nowadays Casals Ventilation, one of its divisions, has its own entity and is independent from the rest. Located in Sant Joan de les Abadesses, in a 12.000m2 factory, it manufactures over 100 different types and models of fans, supplying the national and international market. Besides, there is an additional production plant in Ripoll which is specialized in impellers manufacture, where all welding and embossing processes are integrated.
In the last few years the evolution has been very satisfactory and nowadays the export percentage exceeds 60% of the benefits.
In September 2019, Casals Ventilación became part of the Italian group VORTICE, giving rise to one of the most extensive ventilation and air treatment catalogs on the market, and allowing us to expand our presence in the international market. This integration has allowed us to open up new possibilities in the field of R&D, especially focused on the constant concern of the two companies for improving the efficiency of our products.
