At CALAF Grup, we build differently to change the society that we live in. From our humble roots to the present day, we maintain the firm conviction of being a company that, despite its size, preserves the family spirit and warmth in dealings, combined with the capacity and expertise of a large corporation.
With a clear orientation towards innovation and perseverance, we work to meet the needs of our environment, aware that our work not only builds buildings, but also creates the spaces where we will live and grow: the future. Our constant search for solutions for our clients and the improvement of the world around us has led us to develop new business models, with diversified companies that walk independently, but with the same vision and common goals that make us stronger.
CALAF Grup is synonymous with construction, environment and industry, with a business group in constant growth, both in terms of people and business figures. We have offices throughout Catalonia and international experience.
Our commitment to social transformation drives us to approach each project with the conviction of building a better future. Our values, rooted in closeness to people, respect for the territory and mutual trust, guide each action and define our way of doing things.
