Profile

We are a medium-sized family business, founded around 1890 in Oelde, district Beckum, which is now managed by the 5th generation. Many years of experience over generations distinguish us. At the beginning of industrialisation, scrap iron was collected and recycled by the Westarp family using horse-drawn carts. This has changed slightly until today. The Westarp company fleet consists of over 60 vehicles. In addition, more than 400 employees are employed, who liven up the sites and various warehouses throughout Germany. On a total area of more than 400,000 m² there are state-of-the-art facilities and recycling plants which contribute to the reuse cycle of almost all types of raw materials.

Our core competence lies in raw materials trading. Here we offer a full-service overall concept, so that from the collection to the recycling of all materials, no other traders are interposed. We are not only specialists in the processing of metals but also in special services such as demolition and dismantling. All our plants are approved according to the Federal Immission Control Act. Westarp has been a certified waste management company since the introduction of the Waste Management Specialist Company Ordinance and is also certified according to DIN ISO 9001 (quality management), DIN ISO 14001 (environmental management) and DIN ISO 45001 (safety management). Our customers have valued our many years of experience in raw materials trading, disposal and services etc. for decades.
