I actually installed the two installations at 12:09 left and right on the picture! Incredible place to work, I was always wandering of to other places to look during my work 😅
Cool video, some extra info from someone who works at one of these factories.. the 'oven' is called a Kiln and the collection of tubes at the end of the kiln is called a Planetary Cooler, be careful if you ever enter a kiln again because the coating inside does fall off, very dangerous. also wear a mask as there's some nasty stuff inside some of those places (chromates etc)
Not to mention the cement dust can cause silicosis. Damn nasty.
Thanks for the extra info ! :)
@@wigglewiggle3789 That's exactly what I was thinking when I saw all that dust!
Thanks. Wantet to write that, too. I work in refractory furnice construction Business wich is building the „coating“ inside these kilns. Sad to see that HC complex abandoned. I often work for this group in germany.
Does the entire kiln rotate?! At 9:48 after they exited the planetary cooler it looked like a big gearbox/rolling assembly in the bottom left of the frame. The kiln was sitting on a big round wheel?
Thanks for sharing with us another wonderful exploration! Just a kind remind, please take care of yourselves and wear a mask in these rough environments. Those dusts are really harmful to human bodies.
Great episode, really, I am really impressed. Having worked as a Lab and QC manager of a cement plant as big as this one, I can tell this is an amazing experience. Breathtaking how much matter is being processed in so many linear steps, all VERY dangerous. NEVER go into a killn, where the refractory bricks (heavy!!) and incrustations may fall on you VERY easily.
Zeldzaam om een keer een Urbex uit eigen land te zien. Klasse video weer.
Impressive and beautiful! I hope vandals and scrappers don't get in there and destroy and steal everything. You and The Proper People are my favourite urbexers. Great camera work, music, and mood in your videos. And always exactly the right amount of background information about the places you explore. 💗 I looove the bold move to follow the security van with the drone. 😂 And this window is awesome! It looks like it something from Gotham City. 😉 31:45
Agreed. TPP and unbeaten path are the only ones I like to watch
Oh, and of course congratulations to 250.000 viewers. Can't wait to see you get to 500.000. 👍
Hey Bob I was fortunate enough to Visit several operating Cement Plants Years ago . Some Old , Some being upgraded and some defunct . All were Amazing ! Thanks for the Tour . Brings back memories .
I love the way your explores are put together, really brings the atmosphere out. I've long had a fascination with this kind of thing. My late father was an Architect and as a kid I'd occasionally join him on old sites prior to conversions (so think old hospitals and institutions etc). All the best and thanks!
SUPERVET! De ENCI in Maastricht. Lots of love!
Several years ago I toured an operational cement 'factory' so seeing your explore of an abandoned one was pretty cool.
15:13 There would have been like 8-10 monitors on that control desk, as shown by the empty mounts.
Excellent production! Much thanks for adding in the subtitles & fahrenheit for us westerners. Those touches make your work stand above the rest (besides the really cool locations/risks, of course)!
Thanks for letting me know & for watching Chris :)
When I was a kid we had a home furnace that burned coke (made from coal). The remains of the burned coke were small, black glass-like pebbles my father called clinkers. He would spread them on the driveway like gravel. Thanks for another interesting video, Bob!
Outstanding adventure, Bob seems to smile a lot if he has a camera near something unbeaten.
Het feit tot deze fabriek gewoon nog in gebruik was tijdens opnames is geweldig Maastricht enci groeve
Congrats reaching 250k milestone ! Well deserved 👍
Geweldig om te zien. Wat een fabriek. Nooit geweten !! Bedankt!
Another Super Fascinating Episode - Loved It - Bro the English is Brilliant ! 👍🏻
that must be the tallest hill in NL behind it lol
Nope its not, and its not even a natural hill. Its called 'de observant' Enci used it as a garbage dump for useless stone. Becouse of all the weight of that garbage almost the the whole tunnensystem (limestone quarry) underneath it collapsed. And al medieval drawings are gone.
@@StijnSchurkens that's cool info! for the record I was joking lol
@@StijnSchurkens Damn, that's extremely unfortunate.
Great video and a great exploration, looks like it was abandoned more than a couple of years ago, I would have worn a mask though with all the dust about
Leuk om deze te zien. 👍👊gr uit Maastricht
Lol first thing I thought when I saw the title and thumbnail "It's not gonna be ENCI is it". Staying local for change I see. :)
Yup, thanks to Corona :')
Please edit the comment to not include the actual name of the place to keep it somewhat hidden against vandalism.
Apart from that, i think we will visit this one as well, looks amazing, thanks for the video
Wow wat vet, fietste er net nog langs :)
Is het een beetje toegankelijk?
Cool video bob keep going the goodwork was a really good special episode 🔥🔥🔥
I worked there on a dumptruck. And years before that. I sandblasted that oven, so the old plates could get graind out. And new welded in.
Must be weird to see it in this state😒
@@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath Yes it das. Bad i don't mis it LOL. On the left side on the terain is the dump pit.
Thanks for the walk through which may I say added new meaning and depth to the word amazing ... hello from Australia
Thanks for the video lads! Keep them coming 👍
Jullie zijn het mooiste stuk vergeten. Rechts achteraan. Zijn tunnels te zien van de mergelgrotten. Die kan je zien als je op het terrein van de afgraving bent. Naar beneden lopen en rechts blijven kijken. De drone kan ook mooie beelden schieten daar.
Daar komt nog een losse video van😌
Awesome place!!
Nice man! Dit bewijst maar weer, voor kwaliteit hoeven we niet altijd naar het buitenland te gaan!
Ik zou het wel leuk vinden om eens wat oude fabrieken en gebouwen te bezoeken, Ik woon anti kraak en ben erg goed in lock picking. De dingen die je vind zijn altijd geweldig, ik ben zelfs in een oud douane kantoor geweest en andere belangrijke gebouwen en de dingen die mensen achter laten zijn geniaal.
And there is still power ... the lights are on!
Yup... in some parts.. in The Netherlands it will not get the chance to decay. Things get reconverted/demolished FAST here.
they closed it cause Heidelberg Cement, the owner, was to afraid of the unions in Belgium if they close the CBR plant in Lixhe, it was either CBR or Enci that had to close
Thank U very interesting. I like how you explain what it was.
What an amazing location, so many great pictures! LoL @ following the security car with the drone 😂
Very thrilling!! What a great video as always, thanks Bobby 😎👍
What drone does they use for videos ?
@@sebastiangusta64 not sure, I think it is a DJI MAVICK air 2 or mini
You need to ask Bob what he uses, this was 11 months ago, he has probably updated
Cool place. That was a wren singing at 18:13 :)
One of the best aspects of these type of places . They were Built Strong . Earthquake or Bomb Proof . That's Why they still stand . It could be repurposed .
Fortas, makkelijk te omzeilen ;)
So you must live in Mestreech ;)
Added to the very interesting and well explained visit, I'm impressed by the quality (i would even say artistic) of some pictures.
And yes... Some shots reminded to me the "Alien" movies!! The name is perfectly choosen! Great great job.
Good Quality & Amazing Video,
Thanks for watching! Also check out the playlist most dangerous adventures!☺️
Dat jullie daar binnen zijn gekomen, ik dacht dat overal camera's stonden er er enorm goed gecontroleerd werd door bewaking.
Mooie beelden!
steenfabriek de grote rug?
During its operation, this factory produced enough cement to cover the whole Netherlands under half a centimeter of concrete.
Thanks for the cool fact !
17:00 captions on you will thank me!
ROFL :))
I always thought I could rely ony English listening skills and no need subtitles, but man, this one was necessary :))
Amazing location, another great episode🔥
Sure glad that wasn't going at the time. Pretty hard to sneak around without being heard, walking on klinkers
I think in the 2drum were it pulverized there are big steel balls ,I've heard people call a ball mill some what like a hammer mill. Great video 🎩🇺🇸
Cool ik was hier een paar dagen terug nog geweest👍
Really cool explore! I like to see industrial settings.
Great video from my hometown! The drone footage is amazing!
Limestone? That's calcium. Watch out for Helvetica!
2 uncles of me worked there in 80's and 90's :)
Seems that some furnaces are also used by the police to burn illegal drugs, but I am not sure about that.
That oven looks like a giant revolver mechanism for a caliber 38 pistol
Great Video guys 👍🏻
Great video, enjoyed it a lot.
Super cool looking place, excited for this upload 🤗💚💚🤗
there is a "exactly" the same factory in Skövde, Sweden. but still running
Another super episode Bob...and congrats on the 250k subs....
Was this video made a while ago as the picture quality isn't as good as your usual videos...not criticism just wondered 😃
UA-cam compresses the video... the quality SHOULD be good😥
PS: I now know what you mean... I started a new "style" I just put on the GOPRO instead of walking with a really heavy gimbal and camera all the time.
@@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath Ignore me hahaha...i should have realised i was really early and you tube hadn't rendered the 1080p version...looks great now. My impatience 😂😂
@@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath The new style is fine...it's good to mix it up a bit...and it makes it easier for you to get in the more difficult spaces with a Gopro 😃😃
@@halcyondaystunes O damn, that took a while then..uploaded it 1 day earlier :)
I done in the past exploring coldwar and worldwar objects in the netherlands ..... it was crazy
wow guys your exploration video is amazing thanks 👍👍
another awesome SubEx explore from this great team!
edit: what was the machine towards the end, 31:50+ ...some sort of power turbine?
Very amazing location guys Eploring the Unbeaten Path 👌👍⚠️
Another Great one
Very nice.
Thanks Guys.
That’s the largest flame thrower I have ever seen, thank god it isn’t one ☝️ hehe 😂
't Doet mij denken aan Blendtec, "don't breathe this".
Een masker met stoffilter zou geen kwaad gekund hebben.
RIP ENCI ......
Wow - Sick looking place !!!!
Like a crashed spaceship that has flown thousands of lightyears over decades but was abandon by its crew now that it became useless to them. Where did they go? Maybe they have split up and had gone on a search for a new meaning of their lifes on an planet that must be become foreign to them after all this time in space at a relativistic speed...
Oh yeah. I like that thought a lot. Maybe you can say that about many abandon industrial sites but I think it fits really well here with all the half processed cement and dust of it lying around (Was it the remnants of fuel or did they mine for some precious material?) or maybe because it was abandon so recently. Nevertheless thank you for that awesome video.
Wat voor drone gebruik je eigenlijk om die prachtige aerials te maken, en hoeveel nabewerking zit er in de luchtshots? Misschien een idee om eens een gear-video te maken? :)
This would make an excellent paintball or lasergame location...
Ik heb daar gewerkt, die oven schoonstralen voor onderhoud. En ik heb er op een dumptruck gereden.
Todos os videos do canal sao expetaculares, ja assisti um por um e nao perco nenhuma notificacao
In think that Bearing could use some TLC .
How comes that the lights are switched on in several locations?
Did you find the switches?
They should film an Alien franchise movie here!
Fijn om te weten dat je er in kan haha laats ware ze aan werk daar😅🙃
Stoflongen!
Why do these abandoned sites have electricity!?!? Who is paying the electric bill? It takes away from the excitement when you can just flip on a light switch, lol.
It’s partly in use.. that’s why. I explored it because it will be demolished before the electricity is shut off
Is dit in Maastricht ofzo, aangezien het in de bergen ligt. Zoveel bergen zijn huer namelijk niet.
Het zijn heuvels. Geen bergen. In Lumburg hem je idd dit soort heuvels. Richting de Ardennen
Zit hier niet hetzelfde bedrijf waarvan een deel actief is ? Zag zoiets oo google maps namelijk dus heb mn twijfels om erheen te gaan
Ótimo video, trabalho muito bem elaborado, já é emocionante assistir seus videos imagino como será gravar ... abraço!!
Should’ve waited posting this man..
I hate it when they abandoned these placez. They were working. But what about thr owners do they pay the electricity on those areas that still operate and the lights?
The Umbrella Corporation :)
I see a tire in the thumbnail haha
dik respect pracht locatie
With more effort the owner might have let you camp out for a simple photo shoot. Great job how you did it anyway!
In the Netherlands that won't happen, I tried contacting the owners of a cool abandoned building once and they wanted to charge me 300-400 euro's (~350-450 dollars) for a photoshoot, big industrial complexes like this would be a no-no because of safety regulations.
What is the video we’re your in the snow walking to a giant building on a hill
Are there any plans for redevelopment of the ENCI site?
Jammer dat jullie niet in die hoge torens zijn geweest op het einde. En de loopband brug. Daar kun je vrij hoog. Ook de crusher is vet. Dat is een heel oud gedeelte. En vanuit het hoofdgebouw aan de kant van de stad lopen vrij hoog bruggetjes de oude grotten in. Heb ik altijd al eens willen onderzoeken.
Ik heb bij dit bezoek niet alles gefilmd☺️ bedoel je de mergel crusher?
@@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath ja. En op het einde van de ovens. Daar is n toren waar je vanuit kunt oversteken via die hoge loopband brug. Daar kun je nog hoger tot onder het spitsdak. Ik heb er ff gewerkt. Mooie shit wat jullie doen. Triest dat de enci dicht is ik hoop dat ze de schoorsteen laten staan. Hoort bij maastricht vind ik
@@ExploringtheUnbeatenPath en kijk zeker eens aan de noordkant van het facadegebouw ( waar die andere bedrijven inzitten) daar lopen boven oude bruggen de oude grotten en controlehuisjes in.
Mestreech!
The only place in the Netherlands where there are hills.
De fabrikant locatie is ongeveer 100 jaar oud
It’s in Maastricht city, my home city 🙋♀️❤️.
Aa, summer...
you should check out ths abandoned power plant in italy just search for: Ex Centrale Enel Polesine Camerini
or maybe the tank graveyard near Lenta also in italy
@@filipbrecelj669 Been to many power stations in Italy :) ... and also those tanks ! Will do a revisit soon probably
Bestaat er ook n versie in t Nederlands of met Nederlandse ondertiteling? Zou je een hele hoop oud medewerkers, waaronder mijn vader een groot plezier mee doen.
You Guys should carry a can or lubricant for those Squeaky Doors . A little Dab'll Do Ya .
What is this location and where can you find it?(de plek/coördinaten)
Google is je beste vriend, succes
