RHEINZINK was founded in 1966 by the Grillo Stolberger Zinc companies, along with the United German Metal Works. Production began in 1969. The headquarters and administration base is Datteln at the edge of the Ruhr District.
As the first manufacturer of construction zinc in Europe, RHEINZINK replaced the traditional pack-rolling process with new, innovative technology - the continuous wide-strip casting and rolling mill. Today RHEINZINK belongs to the Grillo group of companies. It has a production capacity of approx. 160,000 tons a year and employs over 800 people. RHEINZINK is present in 30 countries around the world.
The in-house research and development departments are constantly working to improve processing and production quality. Moreover, practical innovations are created here, which simplify both work flow and installation considerably, by means of their economical compatibility, and, along with lasting function guarantee, increase the competitiveness of the trade.
