Filling line for spray paint cans for Martin Mathys in Zelem canceled


The filling line for paint spray cans at Martin Mathys in Zelem is no longer an issue. Relations between the EU and the United Kingdom have now normalized. As a result, the supply from the factory in Newcastle is assured and expansion on the European mainland is unnecessary.

The filling line for spray paint cans at Martin Mathys in Zelem is therefore definitively canceled. In other words, we will continue to work on today's capacity. Therefore, in the spring of 2023, the procedure for applying for the renewal of the existing permit, which confirms the current operation, will start. We will keep you informed about this.
 

Zelem's quality of life assured


Our company will therefore continue to operate at the current level of 190 employees. This makes us one of the largest employers in the region. And we are proud of that.

This offers certainty for the future, even now that the filling line for paint spray cans at Martin Mathys in Zelem will not be built. We also want to give that peace of mind to local residents, the surrounding area and, by extension, the entire municipality. We're working on that. For example, we are currently having a number of studies carried out to clarify that nuisance and risks remain limited.

Our employees certainly make an important contribution to this. You probably also know someone who works for Martin Mathys. Perhaps the Truyers family? Annick and Kristof – and soon also daughter Beau – have been working with us for years. They do this together with our other employees according to the highest standards. We recently again obtained an ISO 9001 certificate for this.
 

Taking social responsibility


This is a confirmation of our qualitative way of working. As a company, we leave our mark on a more beautiful world.

Even now that the plans for the filling line for paint spray cans at Martin Mathys in Zelem have been scrapped, we continue to take our social responsibility as a company. Are you curious how sustainability comes out at Martin Mathys? Environmental coordinator Natalie Hansen tells all about it.
