Syklo is a pioneer of the circular economy
Syklo offers companies the most advanced waste reception, treatment, and further processing services on the market. Our sorting plant in Rusko, Oulu, processes 100,000 tonnes of waste annually.
From the waste, we separate the raw materials that are suitable for recycling and the Solid Recovered Fuel (SRF). Municipal waste is transformed into responsibly produced energy at Oulun Energia’s ecopower plant. In the future, we will direct waste to be recovered even more efficiently than at present.
