Sustainability is the central guiding principle of our company and shapes our daily actions with purpose and positive energy.
A key component is the use of our baling press: by compressing production waste, we significantly increase the loading volume per truck, avoiding unnecessary transport trips. This reduces fuel consumption and lowers CO₂ emissions — measurably and effectively.
In this way, we combine efficiency with responsibility and contribute to a functioning circular economy.
In addition, we rely on precise sorting processes in which materials are carefully separated and cleaned. This ensures that valuable materials are prepared in suitable form for further processing — as a solid basis for new end products.
By doing so, we return materials to the recycling loop and create sustainable solutions for a resource-efficient future.
At WTR, over 97% of all collected materials flow back into the value cycle.
Instead of incineration, we rely consistently on reuse — turning waste into usable resources and actively conserving natural raw materials.

To illustrate: in 2024, around 1,989,000 trees would have been required to absorb the same amount of CO₂.
Through our sustainability strategy and company‒specific recycling processes, we prevented this CO₂ from entering the environment — emissions that would otherwise have been released through incineration.
Recycling at WTR — The Resource Cycle
