WIEDERKEHR IS RECYCLING

Recycling. Everyone talks about it, but we’re actually doing something. And we’ve been doing it since 1959. Back then, one young man had the courage to take his unconventional ideas and lofty ambitions and make something of them. Xaver Wiederkehr started out with a quiet little workshop and a rented scrapyard in Wohlen. This was back when recycling was still belittled as a newfangled trend. Today his name defines the Wiederkehr Group as one of the largest companies of its kind in Switzerland and one of the most cutting-edge reprocessing facilities in the world.

OUR PHILOSOPHY
