The company is founded in Pamplona by the Huarte and Malumbres families. Led by Félix Huarte, it manages to reach a privileged position in the sector.
Obrascón joins Huarte as an industrial partner.
The merger becomes effective in January. The sixth construction group in the country is born.
Lain Constructors becomes a subsidiary company of the British Group John Laing Construction.
A group of professionals acquire 90% of the company, changing its corporate name to Lain Constructions.
