For nearly a century, the family stood as a guardian of a land in Pitrufquen, weaving tradition with visionary development. Our legacy began with a commitment to rural progress, and today, we champion projects —from renewable energy systems to thoughtfully planned developments —that harmonize modern needs with environmental stewardship. Every initiative reflects our belief that progress should nurture, not exploit, the natural world. With deep roots in this soil and generations of expertise, we bridge heritage and innovation to create lasting value.
As a family-run enterprise, we understand the rhythms of the land and the aspirations of growing communities. Whether deploying cutting-edge infrastructure or preserving native ecosystems, we measure success not just in infrastructure built, but in lives enriched. This principled approach, paired with our proven business acumen, allows us to deliver solutions that endure —for the people we serve today and the future generations.
Rooted in Chile's Araucanía Region, we uphold a century-old promise to develop responsibly. We aim to actively manage native forests through sustainable practices –protecting wildlife habitats, minimizing tree removal, and implementing reforestation where needed. Our goal is to create meaningful local employment while delivering infrastructure tailored to rural communities' unique needs.
We strive to empower progress through renewable energy systems and water recycling, harmonizing modern development with ecological preservation. Our approach blends ancestral land wisdom with innovative green technologies, ensuring every development leaves the land healthier for future generations.
From forest-friendly construction to renewable-powered utilities, we set new standards for sustainable growth in southern Chile. The health of native ecosystems guides every decision, as we build infrastructure that serves both people and the environment equally.
Childhood trips to Pitrufquen planted seeds of connection that blossomed when returned as an adult. The Araucania's dual reality: majestic native species and fruit trees standing for ages masking infrastructure gaps we could not ignore. By 2024, we co-funded 50% of our neighbors' electricity line, powering progress literally and figuratively. That year marked our first strategic investment; a pre-feasibility study for photovoltaic generation, mapping sunlight into sustainable potential.
This year, we deepened our commitment with a BESS feasibility report, transforming that potential into actionable storage solutions. Each step honors the land's legacy while charging its future—measured investments yielding exponential returns for the community and ecosystem we cherish.
