company history

Throughout our history, Zeton has continually achieved new milestones. We credit our success to dedication in meeting or exceeding customer requirements and expectations, an extraordinarily high staff retention rate, industry-leading expertise and the loyalty of our valued customers worldwide.

1986 Founded in Burlington, Ontario with seven existing employees - David Beckman, Chris Brown, Paul Gailey, John Grieve, Sean Murray, Brendan McDonald and Nam Nguyen.
1993 Through continued expansion of our customer base, Zeton's staff grew to approximately 25 people.
1996  Acquired Zeton B.V.* in Hengelo, The Netherlands, and became widely recognized as the world’s leading designer and builder of innovative pilot and demonstration scale plants.
1998 Zeton B.V. purchased land and built a new Dutch operating facility in Enschede, The Netherlands, its current home.
2001  Construction began on a new operating facility for the Canadian Division at the current location in Burlington, Ontario. This new, integrated, design-build facility officially came on-line in late Spring 2002.
2008 Expanded the Burlington facility to double the available manufacturing space.
2009 Built on our success, and with a goal of continually investing for the future, Zeton B.V. is in the process of building a new, larger state-of-the-art operating facility in Enschede.
