Adrion Recycling GmbH

Company History

ADRION Recycling GmbH - a growing company since 1899!

Our company was registered by Albert Adrion as a manufactured goods store as early as 1899 and expanded into a raw product trade over the course of a few years.

In 1924 we were entered in the commercial register for the first time. From 1945 ADRION has been wholesaling scrap metal, scrap paper, rags and even bones.

1989 Wolfgang Adrion founds Otto Adrion Recycling GmbH. The company is now run by the 4th generation.

The company focuses on trading in scrap and with two locations

Scrap metals and the marketing of paper with the offer of container services.

From 1996 the company Rethmann Entsorgung GmbH (today REMONDIS GmbH & Co. KG) became a shareholder.

At the Leichlingen location, at the train station, scrap metal, scrap and wood are sorted, handled and recycled.

In Langenfeld on Schneiderstrasse, ADRION opens a new facility with a deinking sorting system. Up to 60,000 t / year and over 30 types of waste paper were sorted here and marketed to paper mills around the world. ADRION has been exporting waste paper to Asia since 1997 and was therefore involved in the international waste paper trade very early on.

Olaf Adrion has been running the business in the 5th generation since 2005.

In 2013 the company Stiefvater was taken over and at the same time the administration and the scrap business moved to Katzbergstr. 5 in Langenfeld.

At the current company location, in addition to international scrap and metal recycling (with an environmentally friendly rail connection), we also offer all services for the professional disposal of your waste.
