About Eggersmann Gruppe
Eggersmann Gruppe GmbH & Co. KG, headquartered in Marienfeld in East Westphalia, is a group of companies operating nationally and internationally in the business fields of construction, recycling and composting. The group manufactures structural reinforced concrete precast elements and design elements such as facades at its own precast concrete plant BETONT in Halle (Westf.), and develops and builds stationary recycling plants as well as mobile machines such as shredders, screening systems and windrow turners. Further manufacturing fields include container construction and tank systems, dry fermentation plants for biogas production, refuse-derived fuel production (Eggersmann FUEL) and the processing of waste incineration ash using the IRRT process. Customers include municipal waste management, the cement industry, plastics recycling and the construction and environmental sectors. Around 1,300 employees at 13 German locations and international sites in Poland, France, Spain, Great Britain, Italy, Hong Kong and the USA generated a total output of around €330 million in 2025.

Materials & Processes
Reinforced concrete / concrete (precast elements)
Structural reinforced concrete precast elements and design elements such as facades are manufactured weather-independently at the BETONT precast plant.
Municipal solid waste incineration ash (MSWI ash, bottom ash, slag)
Using the IRRT process, up to 80% of the dry mass can be processed into certified raw materials.
