Broad incumbents

• Befesa: Luxembourg-headquartered recycler specializing in non-ferrous metal recycling (especially steel dust and salt slags from aluminum) plus aluminum salt slag recycling. Comparable non-ferrous metals processing focus serving industrial customers, though Befesa operates industrial-scale plants rather than yards.
• Stena Recycling: Swedish-headquartered global scrap metal and recycling company with extensive collection, processing, and trading operations across Europe. Directly comparable as a non-ferrous scrap buyer/processor serving industrial customers, but at much larger scale than Eko Centrum.
• European Metal Recycling (EMR): UK-based global scrap metal recycler operating yards and processing facilities across Europe and internationally. Comparable as a non-ferrous scrap collector and processor serving industrial end markets, with substantially larger scale and geographic reach.
• Kuusakoski: Finnish-founded, pan-European metal recycler operating in ferrous and non-ferrous scrap collection, processing, and trading. Comparable as an established non-ferrous scrap processor with yards and collection networks, though significantly larger and more geographically diversified than Eko Centrum.
• Sims Metal Management: Australia-listed global scrap metal recycler with operations across North America, UK/Europe, and Australasia. Comparable as a non-ferrous and ferrous scrap collector and processor serving industrial customers, at very large scale.
• ELG Haniel: German-based global scrap metal trader and processor specializing in stainless steel and non-ferrous alloys, with collection yards and processing facilities across multiple continents. Comparable non-ferrous scrap trading and processing activity, much larger scale.
• Scholz Recycling: German-headquartered scrap metal recycler with extensive yard network across Europe handling ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Comparable as a yard-based collector and processor serving industrial buyers; substantially larger footprint than Eko Centrum.
• Cronimet Holding: German-headquartered global trader and processor of secondary raw materials, with a strong focus on non-ferrous and specialty metals. Comparable non-ferrous scrap trading and processing model serving industrial end markets, at substantially larger scale.

Direct peers

• DDM Group: Netherlands-based mid-sized recycler focused on non-ferrous metals and e-scrap. Comparable business model of non-ferrous scrap collection, sorting, and trading for industrial customers, though with greater European breadth than Eko Centrum's single-region footprint.

Others

• C. Steinweg Group: Dutch-based global metals and minerals logistics and trading group providing warehousing, handling, and distribution of non-ferrous metals. Adjacent comparable as a downstream logistics/trading intermediary serving industrial metal buyers — not a direct scrap yard competitor but operates in the same metals value chain.
