Schwartz Hautmont, Industrial corporation in Vila-seca, Spain
Schwartz Hautmont is an industrial facility at the Port of Tarragona specializing in steel construction and metalwork projects. The production site has direct access to shipping routes and occupies a substantial area within the port complex.
The company was founded in 1963 through a partnership of investors. Later expansion involved reclaiming land from the sea to add more production workshops at the port.
The facility is known locally as the iron factory and represented the first major industrial site in Vila-seca. It shaped how the town developed before other manufacturing zones were built nearby.
The site is located within Tarragona's port, making it easily accessible by ship for cargo. Note that this is an active manufacturing facility and public access may be restricted or require prior arrangement.
The facility expanded in the 2000s by reclaiming land from the sea to build additional workshops. This unusual expansion method allowed for growth without disrupting the existing production areas.
