About us Products Processes Durability Working at Nyrstar Contact News Info for contractors History and background In 1892 the zinc factory was founded by the Dor brothers in the area that was later called Budel-Dorplein. This area was extremely suitable because of the availability of a large site, sufficient quantities of (cooling) water and good supply and discharge facilities by road, water and rail. At the time, zinc production took place according to a thermal process. For economic and environmental reasons and in connection with better working conditions, the thermal company was closed in 1973. A new zinc factory was built based on the electrolytic process. In 2000 the production process was adjusted again. By using the so-called Century ore, which is mined in Australia, the company is currently able to produce the zinc with virtually no waste.
