Descriptiontext

Denuo is a Belgian non-profit employers' federation (legal form: vzw/asbl, registration BE 0445.497.046) that represents more than 250 private waste management and recycling companies in Belgium, succeeding the legacy brand Go4circle. The federation acts as the legally recognized voice of private employers in the Belgian waste and recycling sector, holding seats in the Paritaire Comités 142.01 (metals recovery), 142.02 (rags/textiles), 142.03 (paper), and 142.04 (miscellaneous products), where it negotiates collective labor agreements and conducts social dialogue with trade unions. Its member companies collectively employ approximately 15,000 workers and generate around €3.5 billion in combined turnover across waste streams including metals, paper, textiles, construction and demolition waste, plastics, batteries, and WEEE.

Denuo's core product is a suite of federation services delivered to members: regulatory and policy advocacy at Belgian regional, federal, and EU levels; social-dialogue representation; sector-specific training (ADR transport training, base-formation courses); sector intelligence and statistics; and information dissemination through a bilingual Dutch/French website, email newsletters, social media, a monthly "Trash Talks" podcast on Spotify, and participation in industry events such as CleanTech XPO 2026. Beyond advocacy, Denuo has begun productizing sector services: a CO2 Roadmap and CO2 study for the Belgian waste and recycling sector, a quality assurance system for business residual waste and construction-and-demolition waste, and a KBS Vergisting traceability scheme for the organic-biological waste chain. The federation maintains an alliance network spanning sector organizations (Bebat, Recupel, Fost Plus, OVAM, Go4circle) and technology/services vendors (Casier, BENVITEC, Emelia, Industrious Law, Lybover, Normec Servaco FC, Rematics, Sulo, Terberg Matec, Mol VDK, Zehnder Clean Air Solutions).

Denuo operates a community-led, membership-based go-to-market and generates revenue through recurring membership dues from private waste management and recycling companies in Belgium. Pricing is not publicly disclosed; commercial terms vary by member scale and joint-committee. Services are delivered directly through the federation's working groups, task forces, training programs, website portal, and member-exclusive event channels. The organization is headquartered at Boulevard Auguste Reyerslaan 70, Silver Building B, Brussels, and operates with a small central team of approximately 39 staff serving members across Belgium's three regions (Flanders, Wallonia, Brussels-Brussels Capital).
