Castellón: Spain’s ceramic industry capital and provincial legal centre

Castellón de la Plana is the provincial capital of Castellón and the commercial anchor of one of Europe’s most important industrial clusters: the ceramic tile district of Vila-real, Onda, L’Alcora, and Almassora, which accounts for the majority of Spanish tile production and a significant share of European exports.

The port of Castellón moves ceramic products, citrus from the Ribera de Castellón, and chemical industry output, giving the province a distinctive commercial profile shaped by export-oriented manufacturing and agricultural activity.

The presence of Universitat Jaume I and the Audiencia Provincial de Castellón establishes the city as the administrative and legal centre for the province, serving residents from Peníscola in the north to Nules in the south.

Why choose our law firm in Castellón

At Delaguía y Luzón, our Castellón work is shaped by the province’s industrial character. Ceramic sector employment contracts, export disputes, industrial property transactions, and tax planning for family-owned manufacturing groups all feature regularly in our case mix.

Our law firm in Castellón also serves the coastal communities of the Costa del Azahar, where French, Belgian, and Dutch residents own second homes and require Spanish counsel with sensitivity to the cross-border dimension of their affairs.

Our services for clients in Castellón

Tax law and fiscal planning

Castellón’s ceramic and citrus exporters generate complex international tax situations, particularly around VAT refund procedures, transfer pricing between related manufacturing entities, and the application of the Spain-Italy, Spain-France, and Spain-Germany double taxation treaties.

Our law firm in Castellón handles:

  • Corporate tax planning for family-owned ceramic and agri-food groups
  • Intra-EU VAT and export tax compliance for industrial exporters
  • Non-Resident Income Tax filings for foreign owners of Costa del Azahar property

Civil law and inheritance

The family-owned character of Castellón’s industrial base makes generational succession planning a recurring matter, often combining corporate shareholder arrangements with personal estate planning.

We assist with:

  • Generational succession structures for family-owned industrial groups, combining corporate and testamentary instruments
  • Cross-border inheritance for French, Belgian, and Dutch coastal residents
  • Family protocols and shareholder agreements for ceramic and citrus-industry groups

Property and real estate law

Castellón property work spans three distinct segments: urban residential in the provincial capital, industrial units in the ceramic cluster municipalities, and coastal second homes on the Costa del Azahar.

Our property practice covers:

  • Residential purchases in Castellón city and the coastal municipalities
  • Industrial property transactions, including ceramic-factory sales and warehouse acquisitions in the polígonos industriales
  • Tourist rental compliance for coastal second homes

Commercial law and business formation

The ceramic cluster’s concentration of manufacturing, distribution, and export activity produces a steady stream of commercial work, particularly around supply agreements, distribution contracts, and joint ventures with foreign buyers.

Our commercial team supports:

Labour and employment law

Employment in the ceramic cluster is governed by the Convenio Colectivo de la Industria Azulejera and related sectoral agreements, which contain specific provisions on shift work, seasonal adjustments, and collective bargaining.

We advise on:

  • Employment contracts under the ceramic-industry collective agreements
  • Collective bargaining, redundancies (ERE procedures), and workforce restructuring
  • Representation in individual dismissal disputes before the Juzgados de lo Social de Castellón

Economic criminal law

Our defence practice covers financial, corporate, and tax-related matters before the provincial courts, drawing on experience with the specific risks that arise in family-owned industrial groups.

  • Corporate compliance programmes under Organic Law 10/1995
  • Tax inspection defence for industrial and corporate taxpayers
