RDG - Group

The RDG - Group , which includes RDG - Plast GmbH and RDG - Verbund GmbH , has as its corporate purpose recycling of plastics (production waste, composite materials, large-volume post-consumer waste). We obtain the raw material from the automotive supply industry, from packaging manufacturers for the food industry, large pipe manufacturers, waste disposal companies and municipalities.

Producedis at the location in Mühlheim am Inn, in the industrial park Gimpling 26 and 27, with around 25 employees. The necessary material analyzes are carried out in our own laboratory. The modern machine park is equipped with dedusting, screening system, metal separators and air separation table. Composite materials are processed and recycled according to the latest standards. A powerful pipe shredder will be used from July 2020.

In 2020 - despite the crisis - around 5,000 tons of high-quality regrind were produced. This corresponds to a CO2 equivalent of approx. 11,000 tons (1/3 corresponds to the emissions from our in-house wood chip heating system, 2/3 are “credited to the environment”). All processes and procedures are certified in accordance with ISO 9001: 2015.

The export quotais around 70%. Most of the customers for the regenerated material produced are compounders, but also trading houses; in Austria, in the EU and in third countries.

RDG-Plast creates disposal concepts with the aim of collecting as much as possible sorted by type. Customer-specific contract orders for grinding and / or granulation are processed within a very short time.

The collection of raw material and the delivery of regenerated material are partly handled with our own vehicle fleet, and external logisticians are also used.

The RDG Group has been TÜV certified according to ISO 9001: 2015 since May 15, 2019.
