Committed to our local area: support for Hernaniko Arraun Elkartea in Hernani and the Maialen rowing boat

At Electroquímica de Hernani, we understand that being part of Hernani is not merely a question of location. It is, above all, a responsibility and a commitment to the people, to the social fabric and to the initiatives that build community and foster a collective identity.
That is why we proudly support the Hernani Rowing Club and, in particular, its women’s trainera team Maialen, a project that embodies values deeply aligned with our understanding of the company.

Rowing as culture and identity

In our community, rowing is not just a sport. It is culture, tradition and a shared identity. The River Urumea does not merely flow through the town: it connects generations, unites neighbourhoods, brings businesses closer together and creates a shared space where collective effort makes all the difference. That same philosophy of teamwork, perseverance and striving for excellence is what also guides our business activities.

The Maialen rowing boat

The Maialen rowing boat symbolises that spirit. A team of women who, with discipline, preparation and commitment, compete at the highest level, carrying the name of Hernani wherever they row. Behind every race lie hours of demanding training, meticulous coordination and sacrifice. But there is also determination, leadership and a firm commitment to women’s sport and equal opportunities.

Commitment to local development

For us, supporting the club and Maialen is not merely a sporting partnership. It is a way of actively contributing to local development, promoting female role models in sport and strengthening the social ecosystem around us. We believe in partnerships that generate a positive impact and in the role that businesses must play as agents committed to our community.

Looking to the future

We will continue to row in the same direction, supporting projects that strengthen Hernani and convey the values we share.
Because when the community grows, we all grow.
