Competence and continuity in the waste sector

As a complete disposal company, we assure you - our innovative employees have the right solution for every waste problem. We are the responsible and professional partner for our customers. A large number of employees and a modern fleet of vehicles are always at your service. We introduced a QM system back in 1997. At the same time, certification as a waste management company was successfully completed.

We have been operating our recycling center and hazardous waste interim storage facility since 1999. In addition, we have strengthened our position on the market through the cooperation with LOGEX and can thus use the advantages of a strong network and pass them on to you.

All of this makes us a strong partner at your side.

Sustainability

Responsible disposal is active environmental protection

The protection of our natural resources and the preservation of an intact environment are two important goals of our society. The topic of waste is omnipresent and deserves our special attention. Active environmental protection is based on two pillars: On the one hand, avoiding waste and, on the other hand, recycling it in an ecologically sensible way.

As a disposal company, this issue is particularly important to us, because we know what damage improperly disposed of waste can cause in nature. At the same time, we also know the potential that lies in returning waste to recyclable materials and energy cycles. The sustainable recycling of waste and professional advice on correct disposal is our contribution to a clean environment.

From an ecological point of view, we also ensure that we use a modern, environmentally friendly vehicle fleet, avoid unnecessary journeys and keep our energy consumption as low as possible.
