Overview of businesses and business model 1.1
The Derichebourg Group is a key player at the international level in the provision of services to businesses and to local and municipal authorities. Derichebourg covers the entire waste recycling chain, from collection to recovery, as well as a full range of Business Services and Public Sector Services, including cleaning, temporary work, energy, aeronautic support and logistics. The Environmental Services’ core business is the processing and disposal of waste – mainly metal waste – and of end-of-life products, with recovery of secondary raw materials by using appropriate processing methods.
Environmental Services have become a cornerstone in the international environmental protection policy. The Environmental Services and Multiservices divisions are subject to different economic cycles. The Group’s historic business is the recycling of scrap metal. This activity is somewhat cyclical in nature and depends on the performance of the steel and metallurgy industries. In the mid-2000s, the desire to add a more resilient business to recycling led to the acquisition of Multiservices activities.
