1.1

global provider of environmental services to businesses

and local authorities

Services organized into two complementary businesses 1.1.1 The Derichebourg Group is a key player at the international level in the provision of services to businesses and to local and municipal authorities.

Environmental Services have become a cornerstone in the international environmental protection policy. The Environmental Services and Multiservices businesses are subject to different economic cycles. The Group’s historic business is the recycling of scrap metal. This activity is somewhat cyclical in nature and depends on the performance of the steel and metallurgy industries. In the mid-2000s, the desire to add a more resilient activity to recycling led to the acquisition of the Multiservices and household waste collection activities (which form part of the Environmental Services business), offering predictable revenues and results.

Derichebourg covers the entire waste recycling chain, from collection to recovery, as well as a full range of Business Services and Public Sector Services, including cleaning, temporary work, energy and outsourced aeronautical services. The Environmental Services’ core business is the processing and disposal of waste – mainly metal waste – and of end-of-life products, with recovery of secondary raw materials by using appropriate processing methods.
