About Westermann
Westermann GmbH & Co. KG is a family-owned company with a quarry on the Schafbergplatte in Ibbenbüren-Uffeln. There, Ibbenbüren sandstone and various clays are extracted and processed as bulk materials. The materials are used in hydraulic engineering, path and road construction, landscaping, by construction companies, municipalities and industry. The company delivers with its own commercial vehicle fleet and operates a port facility on the Mittelland Canal for ship loading. The range of services also includes the recycling of mineral building materials at the Hörstel site. Around 80 employees handle extraction, processing and transport; part of the electricity demand is generated in-house via photovoltaic systems and combined heat and power units. The company is family-owned in its third generation and has been rooted in Ibbenbüren-Uffeln for over 75 years.
