Building the future
with responsibility

United in the same goal: to be the first choice for everyone looking for a reliable partner in sustainable waste management.

Our path to a sustainable future

The recycling plant is the result of the merger of OE-EKO and Salomon ECO, two companies that laid the foundations for a new, transparent waste management system. Today, we combine technology, knowledge and responsibility, creating a circular economy that connects industry, municipalities and people.

Systemic approach

We have combined the knowledge of two leading companies that master the entire process from legislation to operational implementation. We process more than 150,000 tons of waste yearly and we operate in 5 centers in Slovenia. Every ton has its own story and its own traceability.

Technologically advanced company

We invest in development and develop new technological solutions ourselves. With our own production, we are building a system where good ideas can be put into practice. With appropriate digital systems, we strive to manage all processes at the highest possible level.

Professionalism and ethics

Every process, every kilogram of waste, every decision is supported by the knowledge and integrity of our team. Our guiding principle is simple: transparency at every stage, from collection to final processing.

Our mission

Why we exist

Reciklarna exists because we believe it is possible to create a system that works fairly, efficiently and without unnecessary burden on people or the environment. Our mission is to act in the public interest: to ensure the highest level of environmental protection in the most economical way possible. We believe that sustainability should be understood as a logical system based on data and respect for all stakeholders.

Our vision

Slovenia as a recycling champion

Our vision is boldly simple: for Slovenia to become the country with the highest rate of packaging recycling in Europe and the world. Cooperation, knowledge and responsibility are the foundations of this path. By introducing modern technologies and transparent operations, we prove that it is possible to build environmentally friendly systems that are at the same time efficient, economically sustainable and people-friendly.

Our values

System. Technology. People.

Our work is based on professionalism, where precision, certificates and proven procedures are part of everyday life. With innovation we are introducing new technologies and processes that improve the efficiency and the experience of our partners. We ensure reliability through full traceability and clear reporting. We live sustainability through a circular economy that we put into practice. We believe in the power of communities, so we collaborate with businesses, industry and residents, and together we create benefits for all.
