Thomas Hayn, Managing Partner of ARJES GmbH, summed it up with a wink: "It’s just a great company with a bunch of great professionals."

For us, this award is not only evidence of resilience but also a validation of the values that shape our actions every day: social and environmental responsibility, innovation and continuous improvement, appreciation for employees and customers, and trust as the foundation of long-term relationships. We also owe our success to the enormous commitment of our employees, who make a decisive contribution every day with passion and dedication. These core principles are what carry ARJES through challenging times, and they will continue to ensure our success in the future.

The study by Süddeutsche Zeitung emphasizes: “The winners will be those companies that adapt quickly, become more efficient, enforce higher prices, and establish robust structures to avoid supply bottlenecks and production stoppages.” ⁽¹⁾

For our team, this recognition is not only a reward for what we have achieved so far but also an incentive for the future. We firmly believe that our adaptability and innovative strength are key success factors in the recycling industry. Our commitment to the industry is also reflected in our recent investments: Since April 2023, we have made significant investments in the new ARJES GmbH production facility in the Krayenberggemeinde Merkers to expand production capacities and hire additional qualified employees. Furthermore, we have strengthened our product portfolio and solidified our market position with the revival of the EuRec brand. Lastly, our strategic partnership with RBG GmbH from Velbert and the collaborative relationship with the companies of the LIG Group – connected through a strong network and shared synergies since this year – further underscore our forward-looking approach.

Our positioning as a crisis-proof company is primarily thanks to our competitive machines and systems, which offer a unique range of applications combined with an outstanding price-performance ratio and a vast international sales and service network. As a result, we provide our customers in the recycling industry with decisive advantages. For us, recycling is more than just a business – it is a passion and a responsibility that we take seriously. Our motto, Recycling starts with A(RJES), is not just an advertising slogan but a commitment that guides every decision and every development we undertake.

We are ready to meet the demands of the future. With courage, a willingness to take risks, and pragmatism, ARJES will remain a reliable partner in the recycling industry for years to come – always striving to listen to and address the daily challenges of our customers.
