The turbulent economic situation of the past year, combined with the ongoing tense geopolitical situation notwithstanding, the Vecoplan Group can look back on a successful financial 2024, maintaining its financial results at a stable level. The company, a manufacturer of machines and plants for the processing of waste materials, said the continued high demand for sustainable recycling solutions was one of the main factors keeping the company on course for growth today.
“We’re seeing a clear shift in public opinion towards greater awareness of sustainability and CO2 reduction, and it’s having a noticeable positive effect on our order situation,” noted Werner Berens, CEO of Vecoplan AG.
The combination of a global shortage of resources, stricter legal requirements and increasing pressure on companies to improve their carbon footprints is leading to a growing demand for solutions such as those offered by Vecoplan. These range from supplying single-machine orders to complex plants, and mega project construction. “We’ve mastered the challenges posed by uncertain markets and volatile order cycles thanks to targeted investments and a clear strategy,” added Ina Hannen, CFO of Vecoplan AG.
These investments, both in new technologies, as well as staff training and further education, paved the way for innovative product developments secured sales even in the uncertain market situation. Vecoplan has received its first major order for cleaning technology, including dry cleaning. The company also introduced a new ERP system to respond even more flexibly to customer requirements. Vecoplan is planning further investments in the high single-digit millions range for 2025. These include the purchase of equipment and software as well as the expansion of Plant I at the main site in Bad Marienberg.
“With our clear focus on sustainability and the further development of our solutions and our employees, we’re very confident about the coming financial year,” said Werner Berens.
