10 Years of Transformation – Eneris Surowce Celebrates a Decade of Innovation in Circular Economy

A Decade of Investment – From Waste Collection to Resource Management

Eneris Surowce began its operations by taking over municipal waste collection services and immediately launching its first own investment – a waste management facility in Greater Poland in 2015. Over the following decade, the company expanded its range of services and set new standards not only in municipal waste collection but also for industrial, construction, hazardous waste, bio-waste, lithium-ion batteries, and packaging films.

Eneris has invested nearly PLN 1 billion in new facilities and service development across Polish cities and municipalities. The company replaced its entire fleet, tripled its workforce, and quadrupled its revenues. Acquisitions of companies such as Altvater, Grabplast, and Bioproten have strengthened Eneris’ market position and broadened its service offering in key segments.

“What was once considered waste and a problem is now becoming an opportunity for Polish municipalities. We give it new meaning – as a source of energy, value, and responsible transformation. It’s a natural path for a company that has spent a decade developing competences across the entire waste management cycle. We strive for solutions that protect resources and enhance quality of life – precisely where change matters most: locally, close to citizens,” says Artur Dela, founder and Chairman of the Supervisory Board of Eneris.

Delivering Solutions that Close the Loop

Eneris develops technologies that accelerate the transition to a circular economy – with a focus on recovering raw materials and energy from waste. One such example is the lithium-ion battery recycling plant in Żarki near Częstochowa – one of the largest of its kind in Europe. At the same time, the company is investing in film recycling, biogas plants, and photovoltaic farms.

Eneris’ approach goes beyond collection and processing. The company recovers materials for reuse in industry, such as LDPE regranulate from plastic films and alternative RDF fuel. These initiatives directly contribute to reducing the volume of waste ending up in landfills.

A complementary element of the system is the thermal treatment plant for hazardous waste in Bydgoszcz, operated by Eneris Proeco. The recovered energy supports local industry.

“Over the past decade, we’ve gone through a period of dynamic growth. We focus on solutions that promote sustainable development and help build a circular economy. We act with care for the environment and the quality of life in Poland. We know that new challenges and ambitious goals lie ahead,” emphasizes Dorota Włoch, CEO of Eneris Surowce.

This integrated and coherent operating model combines innovative infrastructure, local partnerships, and a strong environmental focus. From battery recycling and education to just transition, Eneris is committed to systems that serve both people and the planet.

Shaping the Future of Polish Municipalities and Cities

The coming decade will be a time of continued investment in the development of local circular economy models, based on full recovery of raw materials, energy, and water. Eneris will focus on recycling technologies, secondary raw materials production, and localized energy systems. The goal is to support industry, cities, and services in their transition toward climate neutrality – while reinforcing Eneris’ position as Poland’s leading brand in sustainable development.

Eneris Surowce is a story of trust, hard work, and shared success. It is also a commitment to future generations – to protect the soil, water, and air that sustain us today, so they may continue to serve tomorrow.
