About us
Twence is a waste-processing company that actually generates energy. The company processes the waste from every household and many of the businesses in the Twente region. The waste is safely sorted using state-of-the-art technology, made suitable for reuse, composted, incinerated or – only as a last resort – deposited in a landfill. Over 90% of the waste that Twence receives is transformed into raw materials, building materials and energy.

Twence serves the environment while working on a better future. After all, subsequent generations will need to be able to count on reliable and affordable waste processing.
