Auschwitz III (Monowitz) was a chemicals plant built and owned by the German chemicals conglomerate IG-Farben. The original intention was to make synthetic rubber, but the plant only managed to produce various plastics. Initially, prisoners were marched to and from the factory from Auschwitz I, but the long distance meant they arrived tired for their slave labour, so IG-Farben built huts and established a satellite camp.
