Indaver is a European waste management and circular resource company headquartered in Belgium. It designs, builds, and operates facilities for the treatment of hazardous and non‑hazardous waste, materials recovery, and energy‑from‑waste, serving industrial clients and public authorities across several countries.
For the chemical industry, Indaver offers high‑temperature treatment and secure destruction of hazardous streams, solvent and residue handling, physico‑chemical treatment, and the recovery of energy, steam, and raw materials from waste. The company also develops and operates chemical recycling solutions that convert end‑of‑life plastics into basic chemicals and feedstocks, supporting circular polymer value chains. In major industrial clusters such as the Port of Antwerp, Indaver supplies steam and utilities recovered from waste‑to‑energy operations to nearby chemical sites, helping reduce fossil fuel use and associated emissions.

Public tours show energy-from-waste operations, lamp recycling, bottom-ash recovery and a landfill viewpoint across themed routes with music and family activities.
Certified granulates from bottom ash approved for concrete paving blocks, creating ~30,000 t/yr of aggregates and enabling scaled processing of third‑party bottom ash.
Raises Scope 1 & 2 intensity reduction to 50% by 2035 (41% achieved vs 2017); renewables target 30% by 2030 (28% in 2025); broadens water stewardship and advances recycling pilots.
Facility now processing waste and exporting power; capacity 595,000 t/yr and electricity for ~125,700 homes; €680m investment and plans for 40 ha low‑carbon greenhouses.
Authorities demand extra measurements and monitoring after limited historical soil contamination; four PFAS streams will be suspended while datasets and remediation checks are expanded.
PMD collection now shipped by inland vessel: 10,000 t/year (replacing ~2,320 road trips), press reduces volume by two-thirds, cuts CO2 by ~127 t/yr; plan to move half waste to waterways.
Indaver plans to expand waste treatment in SE England, generating low-carbon electricity. The project aligns with their UK strategy and complements Low Carbon's development efforts.
Recycled polystyrene from PMD bags is used in meat trays, reducing raw material needs and environmental impact. Indaver's facility enables food-safe recycling with 10% recycled content.
