The Catalan steel multinational Celsa continued to increase its profits in the second quarter of this 2026, after recovering to the black in the first three months of this year, as reported this Tuesday by the company's leadership in a press conference. The company is now beginning the search for new owners once the management team considers that the accounts are sufficiently cleaned up "without haste or urgency," said Rafael Villaseca, president of the group.

New industrial venture from the investment arm of the La Caixa Foundation. CriteriaCaixa has reached an agreement in principle with Celsa Group, Europe's leading producer of low-emission circular steel, to acquire a stake in its capital through a capital increase. The transaction, with which the financial institution makes a clear commitment to one of the largest industries based in Catalonia and will result in approximately 20% of the shares, is expected to close in the coming weeks.
