The company
Walter Ott Rohstoff-Recycling GmbH is a company trading and providing related disposal services for ferrous and non-ferrous scrap, alloy scrap, broken grinding disks and ceramics, as well as fire-resistant materials, sintered carbides and tool scrap.
We collect waste material and raw materials in order to extract unmixed and marketable secondary raw materials that can be used in remelting plants and in the production of fire-resistant materials and abrasives as well as in other industrial applications.
Consistent recycling is vital as much from an economic perspective as from an ecological one. Our specialist processing makes waste material into an important secondary raw material for industry.
