TheKnot-Group is a company that works intensively with developers, consultants and problem solvers on plastics, plastic waste and the recycling of materials of all kinds. We develop concepts for functioning material cycles. The amount of packaging waste, plastics that are difficult to separate and other waste is a global problem and the collection, sorting and recycling of usable materials is extremely complex. As global recycling professionals, we specialise in solving precisely these challenging tasks and transforming them into circular loops. With new concepts and products, we also help companies and institutions to achieve their sustainability goals more quickly and efficiently.

A good placefor sustainable solutions
In the former administration building of a major tobacco manufacturer in the 1930s, heads are now smoking for concepts and responsible business.
Our central office with its almost unchanged architecture is not only an inspiring place to work, but also a testament to our own sustainable behaviour.
