Umicore Office Building by Conix Architects. Belgian Business Awards for the Environment: 2nd place winner Umicore. Umicore. Umicore N.V.. formerly Union Minière, is a multinational materials technology company headquartered in Brussels, Belgium. Formed in 1989 by the merger of four companies in the mining and smelting industries, Umicore has since reshaped itself into a more technology-focused business encompassing such areas as the refining and recycling of precious metals and the manufacture of specialised products from precious metals, cobalt, germanium, zinc and other metals.

The company has been a component of Belgium's benchmark BEL20 stock market index since its 1991 inception.[2] To symbolise this trend of moving away from mining and the production of commodities and base metals, the group Union Minière changed its name to Umicore in 2001.
