What Gasser does

Gasser AG is a family-owned Swiss services company headquartered in Dagmersellen, Canton of Lucerne, founded in 1984. It operates two integrated business lines: (1) natural stone sales, supplying blocks, slabs, and fountains for construction and landscaping, and (2) waste disposal and recycling services, including construction waste recycling, wood shredding, aluminum can sorting, plastic recycling, cable recycling, and baling. Disposal is enabled through a licensed recycling and transfer facility, a concessioned municipal collection point (Sammelstelle), a fleet of vehicles ranging from 8t WELAKI systems up to 60t ASTRA heavy-duty tippers, and a range of skip containers from 4 m³ to 36 m³ available for rent.\n\nThe company serves four primary customer segments: construction companies (Baugewerbe), industrial and commercial businesses, municipalities (Gemeinden), and private individuals. Pricing is predominantly quote-based for commercial services, with a publicly disclosed consumer product (Gasser Sack, CHF 15.00 per 528-liter bag, including disposal fee) and recurring press container rentals (10–25 m³) for high-volume locations. The company also offers waste concept development as a consulting service.\n\nGasser AG operates three physical locations: the main headquarters and operational site in Dagmersellen, a separately operated landfill (Deponie Hächlerenfeld) in Buchs LU, and a wholly-owned subsidiary, RS Recupero Materiali SA, in Contone, Ticino, which focuses on hard plastics recycling. The company holds VEVA license Nr. 112500006 for waste management operations and is led by Geschäftsführer Markus Gasser. There is no parent company, no disclosed funding, and no public listing.

Regional players

• VOLKETSWIL Entsorgung AG: Regional waste-management and recycling operator in the Greater Zurich area. Comparable services (collection points, recycling, skip containers) but serving a different Swiss region than Gasser.

Broad incumbents

• Remondis Schweiz AG: Swiss arm of a major European recycling and waste-management group providing collection, recycling, and disposal services nationally. Competes with Gasser on commercial and construction-waste contracts at a much larger scale.
• KIBAG Holding AG: Major Swiss construction-materials and disposal group operating quarries, recycling facilities, and transport services across multiple cantons. Comparable to Gasser on the recycling/transport/aggregate side but at substantially greater national scale.
• Implenia AG: Switzerland's largest construction and real-estate services company, operating recycling and disposal functions at national scale. Overlaps with Gasser on construction-waste handling and natural-stone sourcing.
• Baubedarf Richner + Meier AG: Swiss building-materials distributor with national branch network, including natural-stone and landscaping products. Comparable product portfolio to Gasser's natural-stone retail side but as a national distributor.
• Marti Bauunternehmung AG: Large Swiss construction group with in-house material recycling and disposal operations supporting its construction projects. Comparable integrated services but at a national scale far exceeding Gasser.
