What VEKA Recyclage does

VEKA Recyclage SAS is a French PVC recycling company headquartered in Vendeuvre-sur-Barse, operating a single industrial site as a wholly-owned subsidiary of the German VEKA group, a leading manufacturer of PVC window and door profiles. The company collects end-of-life PVC windows and doors as well as production scrap from window manufacturers and distributors, installers, demolition and waste-removal firms, and housing construction and rehabilitation companies. Customers request container pickup through an online form under a sales-led B2B service model.

The core offering is a multi-step recycling process — container provision, scheduled collection, optional on-site "Service CHANTIER" handling of construction-site waste, and acceptance specification controls — that converts recovered PVC into recycled granules (Matière Première Recyclée) with characteristics matching virgin PVC, enabling reuse in new window and door profile extrusion. The business is certified and standards-compliant (specific certifications are referenced but unnamed in the source material).

Revenue mechanics are service-based: fees for collection and processing, offset to customers by avoided landfill/incineration costs and recovered material value. Operations are coordinated cross-border with parent VEKA UT (Germany) and sister VEKA RECYCLING UK, providing pan-European coverage. Headcount is 11-50 employees and pricing is not publicly disclosed.

Direct peers

• Deceuninck: Belgian PVC window/door system provider with in-house recycling programs for production waste and end-of-life profiles, serving overlapping European fenestration customers.
• REHAU Group: German-based competitor manufacturing PVC window and door profile systems with its own PVC recycling loop (REHAU Loop). Closely comparable in product category, customer base (window OEMs and construction), and circular-economy positioning.
• Salamander Industrie-Produkte: German PVC window and door systems manufacturer with own-brand recycling and circular economy programs, competing for the same European window-manufacturer and demolition-customer segments.
• Profine Group: German PVC profile manufacturer (KBE, KÖMMERLING, TROCAL brands) operating recycling operations for end-of-life profiles. Directly comparable to VEKA Recyclage as a competing fenestration-recycling-focused entity within a profile-manufacturer parent.
• Aluplast: German PVC profile systems manufacturer serving European window fabricators, with sustainability and material-recycling initiatives relevant to VEKA Recyclage's downstream customer base.

Broad incumbents

• Renewi: European waste-to-product company operating materials recovery facilities including plastics streams, providing broader-scale recycling services that overlap with VEKA Recyclage's collection-and-processing model.
• Veolia Environnement: Global environmental services leader providing broader plastic and industrial waste collection, sorting, and recycling at much larger scale. Comparable on the waste-management service model rather than PVC specialization.
• Saint-Gobain: Global building materials group active across construction products including fenestration-adjacent categories. Comparable as a downstream construction-industry customer and broader circular-economy incumbent impacting PVC demand and substitution dynamics.
• Suez: International water and waste management operator with polymer recovery capabilities across Europe. Adjacent incumbent offering competing collection services and recycled-plastic outputs to municipalities and industrial customers.

Others

• TOMRA: Norwegian sensor-based sorting technology provider widely used in plastics recycling facilities. Comparable as an enabling infrastructure supplier within the same plastic-recycling value chain rather than a direct competitor.
