In Singapore, REMEX GmbH operates one of the most modern recycling facilities for incinerator bottom ash (IBA) processing and metal recovery from IBA. The Environment and Water Resources Minister of the Republic of Singapore officially opened the facility in December 2015. With a record construction time of only eight months, the plant, which features innovative processes and techniques, has become a flagship project in Asia.
REMEX founded REMEX Minerals Singapore Pte. Ltd. in 2014 to enable the construction and operation of the facility. With this subsidiary in Southeast Asia, new territory was entered from a continental perspective.. Our company acts on behalf of the National Environment Agency (NEA) and transfers the experience from similar REMEX plants in the Netherlands and Germany to the Asian market.
The facility was built in Singapore's Tuas industrial zone. Around 600,000 tonnes of ash are processed and recycled there every year. More than 90 percent of the ferrous metals contained and more than three quarters of the valuable non-ferrous metals such as aluminium or copper are recycled. A proud quota, which is especially possible due to sophisticated magnetic and screening technology. The new REMEX processing facility clearly advances recycling, which is eminently important for Singapore, and the goal of a "Zero Waste Economy".
REMEX creates the basis for further international growth with this highly-efficient recycling facility. At the same time, as a company, we stand by those who are facing the global challenge of becoming a waste-free nation.

As early as 2017, the REMEX subsidiary in Singapore passed all stages of the ISO 9001, 14001 and 18001 audits, thus demonstrating not only its expertise in high-quality recycling associated with the processing of incineration residues, but also our commitment to quality, environmental responsibility and the health and safety of employees.
In addition to the processing of incinerator bottom ash, metal recovery and metal recycling, REMEX Singapore offers a wide range of additional specialist services, e.g. for hazardous waste.
