About Eggersmann Gruppe
The Eggersmann Group, headquartered in Harsewinkel (Marienfeld), is a network of companies operating nationally and internationally in the fields of construction, recycling and composting. In its recycling division, the company develops and manufactures mobile shredders (single- and twin-shaft), rental turners, screening plants and sensor-based sorters, and implements complete processing plants, including for municipal solid waste incineration ash (IBA). In the field of composting/dry fermentation, the group supplies fermenter tunnel technology in batch operation (BEKON/KOMPOFERM) and operated its own composting and energy plants (KOMPOTEC). The construction division manufactures structural precast concrete elements and design elements such as façades in the BETONT precast plant in Halle Westfalen, and offers structural shell construction, bridge construction and turnkey building and civil engineering. The portfolio is complemented by tank and container manufacturing/tank systems (farmatic), electrical engineering (E&F) and digital plant management via the ESA app. The approximately 1,300 employees are spread across 13 German sites and international locations in Poland, France, Spain, the UK, Italy, Hong Kong and the USA. Consolidated total output in 2025 was approximately €330 million.
