Olen
Umicore has been active in the world of metals for 200 years. We evolved from one of the world's largest producers of copper and zinc to a materials technology group that invests heavily in 'materials for a better life'.
Today, we are a global reference in circular materials technology with extensive expertise in materials science, chemistry and metallurgy. We employ around 12,000 people worldwide in more than 60 locations.
