Maerz Lime Kilns. Worldwide.

75 Years of Maerz – Anniversary Trip to Munich

In September, Maerz Ofenbau AG celebrated two significant milestones: 75 years since its founding in Zurich and 20 years of its branch in Timisoara, Romania. To mark the occasion, employees from both locations gathered for a memorable anniversary trip to Munich.

Over three eventful days, almost all members of our Maerz family explored Munich by bicycle, and visited either the Deutsches Museum, the football stadium, the BMW Welt, or a traditional brewery.

A shared lunch at the iconic Hofbräuhaus was a highlight. The grand finale was a festive dinner at the Paulaner Bräuhaus, where everyone raised their glasses once again to a double anniversary worth celebrating.

Beyond the cultural and culinary highlights, the trip was above all a celebration of team spirit. Traveling, experiencing and celebrating together strengthened our sense of unity and reminded us once again of what we can achieve as a team.

75 Years of Innovation and Passion for Lime

Since its founding in 1950 as an engineering office for industrial kilns in Zurich, Maerz has evolved into a global leader in lime kiln technology. From the very beginning, a passion for technical innovation and process optimisation has been at the core of everything we do.

Today, Maerz lime kilns operate in more than 70 countries across 5 continents, setting benchmarks in energy efficiency, emission reduction, and digital process control.

Our dedicated employees, long-standing customers and partners, and our ongoing commitment to progress have made this success possible.

Looking Ahead

In the years to come, Maerz will remain true to its pioneering spirit. With innovative technologies for CO2 reduction, new energy and new digital solutions, Maerz is actively shaping the future of the lime industry in close collaboration with its global partners.

With this energy, we look confidently ahead to the next chapter – and the next 75 years of success!
