Quarry
Rhomberg delivers the highest quality from a single source – including our raw materials, which are sourced from the Hohenems-Unterklien quarry. Our site is situated in a central location in the northern Rhine Valley, near the consumer centres to which the raw materials are delivered. In-between the loading and unloading of the trucks, the materials are transported roughly eight to ten kilometres; one-third of the Austrian average.
Good things are just a stone's throw away
In addition to traditional quarrying, materials and raw materials are delivered, reprocessed and recycled. Our recycling rate is approx. 25%. This is also profitable for our customers, who receive high-quality, native products at an affordable price.
For our Swiss customers, customs clearance is performed straight away using scales, i.e. conveniently and without waiting times at the Schmitter in Lustenau border crossing.
Opening times for the Hohenems-Unterklien quarry:
