begin about us Products Current Downloads gallery Contact about us The origin of the group of companies goes back to around 1890. The first evidence is the entry of a general partnership in the Mainz commercial register in 1892. The activities of the company founded by master builder Franz Minthe were originally in the field of hydraulic engineering and shipping. A concentration on raw material extraction only developed in the course of the coming decades with the establishment of locations along the Rhine between Karlsruhe and Mainz. In July 1944, F. + J. Minthe GmbH & Co. KG was founded by Franz Minthe (son of the master builder) and his son, Joachim Minthe, originally as a general partnership. Since then, the extraction and processing of gravel and sand has been the main field of business of the medium-sized family company, which is now in its fifth generation. The former mining sites Rußheim Nord and Goldgrund / Goldkehle in the district of Germersheim, as well as Rußheim Süd in the district of Karlsruhe, testify to the longstanding activities of our association. Today the company is represented with plants and branches along the Rhine in Mainz, Eich, Ingelheim, Mannheim, Offendorf (France) and Diersheim. In addition to various raw material holdings, the company also maintains three of its own motorized goods ships, which are used to transport the gravel and sand produced at the various extraction sites to the end customers. © F. + J.
