What Valor does
Valor is a Dutch waste valorization company — wholly owned by Ortessa Groep BV — that operates four processing facilities across Sint-Oedenrode, Uden, Hoensbroek and Sittard, serving companies, producers, municipalities, recyclers and waste collectors in the Limburg and Brabant regions. The business is organized into three core operating divisions: ABC's (Afvalbewerkingscentra / Waste Processing Centers), which manage 236,000 tons of mixed waste per year through shredding, mechanical and manual sorting; veyzle, a paper and plastics recycling sub-brand consolidating 70+ years of family-business expertise; and Valor Compostering, which pioneered tunnel composting and converts 47,000 tons of GFT waste annually into Class A certified compost. Adjacent service lines include product destruction (customs goods, food, fashion, cosmetics) with optional 24-hour SLA and CA+-certified archive destruction.
The company's technology stack combines a Doppstadt Inventhor 6.2 shredder deployed across locations, a Van Kaathoven Sittard sorting installation processing 25–35 tons/hour, and fully automated tunnel composting with closed-loop air cleaning. It holds a dense certification stack — CA+, OPK, ISO 9001, ISO 14001, VCA, Keurcompost Class A, Valipac, Better Biomass (NTA 8080 / EU RED3) — covering scrap paper, biomass, industrial packaging and compost quality. Revenues are generated through per-ton waste processing fees (quote-based), resale of baled paper, plastics and compost (90% to agriculture and horticulture), and professional product destruction services, with customers delivering waste directly or via logistics partner networks. Distribution is regional and direct-to-facility, supported by a corporate website, LinkedIn presence, customer magazine, and industry event participation (IFAT Munich 2026).
