Description

Founded in 1987 and headquartered in Luxembourg City, Befesa S.A. delivers specialized environmental recycling solutions to the steel and aluminum industries across European, Asian, and North American markets. The company operates through two primary divisions. The Steel Dust Recycling Services segment focuses on collecting and repurposing steel dust and other residues generated during the production of crude, stainless, and galvanized steel. Meanwhile, the Aluminium Salt Slags Recycling Services segment manages the reclamation of salt slags and hazardous spent pot linings (a byproduct from primary aluminum production), recovering valuable materials such as salt, aluminum concentrate, and aluminum oxides for resale. This segment also processes various aluminum waste streams, including dross, shavings, and cuttings, to manufacture secondary aluminum alloys primarily for the automotive and construction sectors. Beyond these core recycling activities, Befesa provides logistics and waelz oxide treatment services, engages in project and technology development, and operates as a marketing entity.
