Product examples

The sorted wastes, which are now again raw materials in a cycle! , are usually continued to give to the raw material-processing industry. Iron goes into steel plants, suitable glass supplied to glassworks and tyre are processed to rubber granulates. From the bio garbage fraction compost is developd in its different sizes and qualities. The separated plastic fraction (in Germany known under the name "DSD") is processed to various products.
