The DRH Deutsche Rohstoff Handelsgesellschaft mbH is a medium-sized, internationally operating production and trading company based in the Hanover area, specializing in the sustainable processing and trading of secondary metals and mixed metals. Since its foundation, DRH has developed from a small team into a globally networked provider that now serves around 700 customers in 27 countries. The company acts as a link between scrap producers and users and, thanks to its worldwide network, ensures the reliable procurement of non-ferrous and ferrous metals as well as special scrap fractions.
A core business is regional metal processing, including scrap and metal acceptance in the Hanover area, where mixed fractions are sorted and processed into single-variety, industrially usable raw materials. This in-house processing ensures the resource-saving return of raw materials to the economic cycle, which DRH sees as an essential contribution to sustainable management. The production and trading processes are strictly regulated by internal controls and as a certified waste management company, in order to permanently guarantee high quality and safety standards.
DRH's mission is to take responsibility for nature and society through innovative recycling processes and to help shape a sustainable circular economy. Sustainability forms the foundation of the corporate strategy: Through the consistent processing and recycling of raw materials, DRH makes an active contribution to resource conservation and environmental protection goals. This results in ecologically sound disposal and the minimization of waste, always in accordance with current environmental law requirements. DRH sees itself not only as a trading company, but as a partner for sustainable raw materials management, which expands its innovative strength through continuous process optimization and market development.
The management under Beatrice and Jovis Bartels combines commercial expertise and industry knowledge, which ensures stable economic development and the expansion of innovative recycling solutions. With further locations, including in Switzerland, as well as the subsidiary DRR Deutsche Rohstoffrecycling GmbH with its own metal processing, DRH is consolidating its position as a leading player in the field of secondary metals. The company is thus consistently pursuing its vision of promoting an innovative Circular Economy through effective recycling and thus creating both economic and ecological added value.
