Reconomy Group expands circular capabilities in Europe with strategic acquisition of Combineering.
Leading global circular economy business, Reconomy Group has acquired green tech development company, Combineering, a well-established and rapidly-growing provider of unique, science based recycling solutions with the aim of turning waste into an infinite resource. The deal has been completed on Tuesday, 28 February 2023.
Based in Birkerød, Denmark, Combineering has been developing specialised recycling solutions for four decades, with the aim of maximising recycling rates, minimising waste, reducing CO2 emissions, and closing the loop for its customers.
Their large scale, scientific and proprietary circular methods have been standardised and implemented across various industry sectors, providing full legal compliance and driving the best value for customers.
Combineering’s strong presence across industries including agriculture, energy, biogas, manufacturing and construction will compliment Reconomy Group’s existing ‘Recycle’ vertical and circular economy capabilities, whilst adding further specialist expertise and greater reach built on long-term customer relationships in several countries.
Combineering will continue to operate as a distinct brand within Reconomy Group and have the benefit of access to a much broader set of sustainable products, technologies and services. Reconomy Group Combineering

Guy Wakeley, chief executive of Reconomy, concluded: “Enabling the circular economy for businesses around the world is the reason that Reconomy exists. Decoupling economic growth from the consumption of natural resources is a fundamental need for the 21st century and Combineering brings important proprietary capability to pursue this purpose and drive great ESG outcomes for our customers.
