Created in 1965 by Guy Dauphin, Ecore’s main subsidiary “GDE” is the #2 leading French company in the collection and recycling of waste materials, primarily specialized in metal (mostly ferrous metals, destined to the steelmaking industry; and non-ferrous metals, destined to a wider range of end industries) as well as plastic, batteries, and other materials. Ecore has an extensive coverage of the French territory, with a network of 65 collection centres and 10 waste transformation centres.
