  • REMONDIS / RETHMANN Group — Turnover 2024 (REMONDIS group): €13.2 billion (REMONDIS; RETHMANN group larger).

  • Clean Harbors (hazardous & industrial waste services) — Revenue 2024: US$5.89 billion.

  • Biffa plc — Statutory revenue 2024: £1,443.2 million.


Market sizing & growth (high-impact numbers)

  • Global waste management market (value): estimates vary by vendor but cluster in the USD 1.2–1.4 trillion range for 2024 with mid-single-digit CAGRs.

    • USD 1,219.6 billion (2024) → USD 1,598.1 billion by 2029 (CAGR ≈ 5.6%).

    • USD 1,424.35 billion (2024) → USD 2,365.14 billion by 2033 (CAGR ≈ 5.9%).

Recent developments

  • Major M&A / portfolio moves: Waste Management announced a large deal to buy Stericycle’s medical-waste business (deal value reported at US$7.2B) — a strategic push into healthcare waste & services.

  • Private & public investment ramp-up in recycling tech and WtE (waste-to-energy): brands and municipalities increasing capital spend on advanced sorting, chemical/enzymatic recycling pilots and WtE facilities.

  • Pricing & commodity tailwinds: large haulers reported revenue growth in 2024 driven by price increases, recycling commodity improvements and acquisitions (WM, Republic, Waste Connections reported year-over-year revenue gains).

Drivers

  1. Rising urbanisation & municipal solid-waste volumes globally (more waste per capita in emerging markets).

  2. Regulation & ESG pressure — stricter landfill bans, recycling targets, producer-responsibility rules (EPR), and corporate net-zero commitments. 

  3. Commercialisation of circular-tech (advanced mechanical/chemical recycling, WtE, anaerobic digestion) creating new revenue streams.

Restraints

  • High capex and long payback for advanced sorting, WtE and chemical-recycling plants. 

  • Feedstock variability & contamination of recyclables — lowers economics and raises operational complexity.

  • Fragmented regulation and procurement cycles across municipalities — slows scaling of uniform solutions.

Regional segmentation (short)

  • North America: mature collection & landfill infrastructure, leading private haulers (WM, Republic, Waste Connections); strong RNG and landfill-gas projects.

  • Europe: strong recycling mandates, high WtE penetration (incineration with energy recovery), big integrated players (Veolia, SUEZ, REMONDIS). 

  • Asia-Pacific: fastest growth in waste volumes and investment (China, India, SE Asia) — mix of public initiatives and private investment to expand sorting/recycling capacity.

  • Latin America & MEA: patchwork of opportunities; many projects focus on basic collection, informal-sector integration and selective recycling/WtE pilots.

Emerging trends

  • EPR / producer-responsibility enforcement (packaging EPR scaling up in many markets). 

  • Technology-led sorting & AI-vision for optical sorters, robotics for material recovery.

  • Chemical recycling & enzymatic depolymerisation pilots for mixed plastics (startups and pilots gaining funding).

  • Decentralised, modular recycling & micro-WtE units for remote/municipal applications.

Top use cases

  • Municipal solid-waste collection & landfill management (household + commercial).

  • Recycling / materials recovery for plastics, metals, paper, e-waste.

  • Hazardous & medical waste services (specialised handling, incineration & treatment).

  • Waste-to-energy / anaerobic digestion & RNG production (energy recovery and decarbonisation).

Major challenges

  • Economics of recycling when commodity prices are weak, requiring subsidy/EPR or technological uplift to be viable.

  • Community & permitting objections for WtE/incineration, delaying projects.

  • Informal-waste sector integration in emerging markets (social, regulatory and operational complexity).

Attractive opportunities

  • RNG & landfill-gas monetisation, with utility and transport off-taker contracts.

  • E-waste recycling & precious-metals recovery — high-margin, technology-intensive segment.

  • Industrial & hazardous-waste services consolidation and speciality treatment (higher margins).

Key factors of market expansion

  1. Regulatory tightening (EPR, landfill bans, recycling targets) that forces structural demand for services.

  2. Scaling of advanced recycling (mechanical + chemical) and WtE to convert waste into revenue streams.

  3. Private capital & infrastructure financing to fund large sorting, recycling and WtE projects.
