A strong network for waste management companies, recyclers and solution providers – shaping innovation together
Waldems, October 2025 – The circular economy thrives on collaboration, practical relevance and innovation. By joining the Entsorger Circle, plastship is strengthening exactly this connection: the new network unites waste management companies, recyclers, waste producers and solution providers who are jointly driving digital transformation and sustainability in the recycling sector.
Under the motto “Together. Practical. Solution-oriented.”, the Entsorger Circle offers a platform where knowledge transfer, digitalisation and AI take centre stage – with the goal of increasing productivity and profitability within the waste management industry.
The Entsorger Circle already connects more than 50 companies from the recycling sector in a unique exchange format. With twelve specialist events per year – ranging from online sessions and site visits to innovation workshops – the network showcases practical solutions and technologies that are already delivering results today.
We are seeing that many waste management companies and recyclers are actively seeking tangible solutions for digitalisation – and this is precisely where the Circle comes in: it brings practitioners together to share experiences and learn from one another,
explains Andreas Bastian, Managing Director of plastship.
As a digitalisation partner for the circular economy, plastship contributes its expertise in recyclate management, data integration and AI-driven material flow optimisation to the network.
One example is the KISS Project (“AI-based Qualification, Control and Optimisation of Material Flows”):
A platform demonstrating how Artificial Intelligence analyses material flows, optimises recycling pathways and enables more efficient use of recyclates – practical and cross-sectoral.
In addition, plastship connects manufacturers, recyclers and waste managers along the value chain to jointly develop market-ready and sustainable solutions.
"With the Entsorger Circle, we are creating a platform that unites digitalisation, AI and practical expertise – helping companies to achieve tangible progress. Our goal is to make working solutions visible and to develop them further together",
says Dr Moritz Gomm, Founder of the Entsorger Circle.
Members can look forward to a diverse programme covering key topics of the circular economy and digital transformation.
