Our Services

Recovery of industrial waste as a key component of the circular economy model is a safe and environmentally responsible alternative for many industries that generate waste. Life-Cycle Assessment (LCA) studies demonstrate that co-processing offers superior environmental performance to landfilling or incineration.

We manage waste from various industries, including: wood and derivatives, chemical and pharmaceutical, automotive and auxiliary, graphic arts, oil, petroleum and derivatives, rubber or plastic, cardboard and paper.

Our services include:
• Technical and commercial advice 
• Lab analysis and classification 
• Delivery scheduling 
• Transport advice 
• Destruction of off-spec products 
• Final destruction certificate 
• Waste Collection

In Almería, Geocycle’s Albox plant, is specially designed to process liquid and solid waste from a wide range of sources. Once pretreated, the waste can be co-processed in one of our 4 kilns, most of them situated on the east coast of Spain.
