Reno was born in the city of Barcelona, although it later moved its activities to Cerdanyola del Vallès, a city with a great hockey tradition and home to Cerdanyola Club d’Hoquei (the Cerdanyola Hockey Club) - a real national hockey veteran and organiser of the legendary “24 Hores d’Hoquei” (“24 Hours of Hockey”). In its early days, it made racquets, skis and wooden golf sticks, moving soon after into the production of hockey sticks.

Reno quickly became the benchmark brand for roller hockey -“the stick brand”- and signed a partnership agreement with FC Barcelona, an agreement that it still maintains, making it its main provider

Throughout all these years, FC Barcelona has used Reno equipment and has won all imaginable titles, with the Club going down in the history books of hockey.

Reno expanded its influence, working closely with extraordinary teams like H.C. Cerdanyola, C.E. Noia Freixenet, C.P. Vic, H.C. Palau de Plegamans, Igualada H.C., F.C. Porto, R.C.D. Espanyol, U.D. Oliveirense and the Spanish national team among others.

Josep Vigueras, a passionate player and entrepreneur, ook over Reno management and promoted the brand like never before, deepening its relationship and engagement with clubs and players, making new roller hockey products, and paving the way to the international market.

Vigueras made his player début in the upper tier of Club Esportiu Laietà and later also played with clubs like Igualada Hoquei Club, Club Tenis Barcino, Reial Club Deportiu Espanyol, Club Hoquei Caldes (where he coached and was crowned first division champion), Sferic de Terrassa, Cerdanyola Club d’Hoquei and Club Hoquei Santa Perpètua. Vigueras also chaired the Spanish Skating Federation hockey committee in the early 80s and mid-90s
