We are part of …

In 2013, we became part of Scholz International Holding, one of the largest waste collection and processing companies in Europe.

In 2016, Scholz International Holding was acquired by Chiho-Tainde Group (CTG), which was renamed a year later to Chiho Environmental Group (CEG).

We operate with social responsibility

Social responsibility is a core part of our business strategy and corporate governance. Knowledge and collaboration are key to achieving our objectives.

Why knowledge? Because we regularly raise awareness, educate, and inform about socially important topics. Each year, we participate in charitable initiatives collecting waste paper (“Collecting old paper, supporting a friend”) and plastic bottles (“Old bottle for a new life”), adding a happy ending to every story.

Why collaboration? Because through communication, education, and dialogue, we strengthen relationships with all stakeholders: employees, suppliers, and business partners.
