RECYCLING-TECHNIK Dortmund is Germany’s leading trade fair for industrial recycling technologies and advanced material processing solutions – an essential meeting point for professionals in the circular economy sector. Since its inception, the event has been synonymous with forward-looking innovation and practical, real-world solutions across the entire recycling value chain.
Held every two years in the heart of North Rhine-Westphalia, the event takes place at Messe Westfalenhallen Dortmund – a modern, centrally located venue offering excellent transport links by rail, road and air. Over time, the fair has evolved into a highly specialised platform where experts from waste management, environmental engineering, industry, and local authorities come together to exchange insights on the latest technologies, processes and products.
What sets RECYCLING-TECHNIK apart is its dedicated focus on solutions for the collection, sorting and processing of recyclable materials – ranging from biowaste and electronic scrap to plastics, metals, glass and textiles. The exhibition is further enriched by cutting-edge measurement, control and automation technologies, safety and fire prevention systems for recycling facilities, and machinery for materials handling. A major draw is the Waste-to-Energy segment, showcasing innovative approaches to energy recovery from waste. Also featured are secondary raw materials trading and services aimed at process optimisation, completing a comprehensive industry offering.
The fair is precisely tailored to the needs of a sector under increasing pressure to implement sustainable resource management. Accordingly, it attracts a high-calibre professional audience: decision-makers from industry, academia, municipal operations and the waste disposal sector attend not only to monitor market trends but also to make informed investment decisions. Exhibitors represent a broad cross-section of the industry – from mechanical engineering firms and technology providers to materials specialists and niche service companies.
With its state-of-the-art exhibition centre, outstanding connectivity and proximity to key industrial hubs, Dortmund offers the ideal setting for this specialised trade event – easily accessible, practically focused and firmly future-oriented.
The RECYCLING-TECHNIK in Dortmund took place from Wednesday, 18. March to Thursday, 19. March 2026.
