Innovative building materials recycling at the port

04.06.2025
PAPENBURG. In May, proRC GmbH announced an investment of approx. five million euros in a new processing and transshipment facility at the Papenburg port for building materials sourced from secondary raw materials. One objective is to manufacture high-quality alternative materials for road and civil engineering companies that help increase sustainability in the construction industry and conserve resources. From there, the authorised waste disposal company, founded in 2023, can carry out its logistics not only by road and rail, but also by eco-friendly shipping in the future.
