    Malt factory in Gernsheim

    DURST MALZ makes history

    DURST MALZ has developed from a family business into a large malt manufacturer in almost two centuries. DURST MALZ was founded in 1824 as a country brewery and malthouse in Heidelsheim near Bruchsal. About sixty years later, the company specialized in malting - it was converted into a commercial malt house.

    After modernization measures towards the end of the century, the first malt was exported in 1924. At the end of the Second World War, the owners Karl Fritz and Reiner Hiby-Durst continued to expand the company.

    In 1959 they took over the Niersteiner Mälzereigesellschaft am Rhein. In 1985 the Rheinische Malzfabriken Union in Gernsheim/Rhein were acquired. In 1992 the three companies merged. Extensive modernization and expansion work was carried out over the course of the 1990s, particularly at the Gernsheim plant.

      The new building in Gernsheim went into operation in 1997, and in 2000 the Westdeutsche Mälzerei GmbH, Castrop-Rauxel was taken over.

      Despite this expansion, DURST MALZ has retained its family character and is now managed by the fifth generation, Andreas Hiby-Durst.
