HISTORY Established in 1992 by the Cologne City Council, it was the task of AVG Cologne to implement the specifications of the waste management concept from 1988. It was necessary to set up the planned infrastructure with recycling and treatment plants and to operate the plants. Until then, all of the waste from the city of Cologne ended up in the United Ville landfill in Erftstadt-Liblar. In the early years, AVG Köln and private waste disposal companies founded companies for the sorting and recycling of mixed construction and commercial waste as well as for the composting of biogenic waste. At the same time, she began planning the composting plant and the residual waste incineration plant. Two commercial waste sorting plants, two mixed construction waste sorting plants, the composting plant, the residual waste incineration plant and the ash processing plant were built within six years. In addition, the city of Cologne transferred the operation of the United Ville landfill to AVG Cologne in 1998. In order to strengthen the loose corporate group and make it more effective, AVG Cologne took over all of the associated companies in 2009. A uniform corporate identity was created under the umbrella brand AVG in 2014, which also documents the common business core and the bundling of forces to the outside world. In addition to AVG Cologne, AVG Resource GmbH for the area of commercial and mixed construction waste and AVG Kompostierung GmbH for the processing of biogenic waste operate. AVG Service, responsible for maintenance and repair, completed the group in 2015. LEFT SITEMAP CONTACT IMPRINT DATA PROTECTION RECYCLING YARDS PRICE LIST & OPENING TIMES .lo Loading...

CATHEDRAL STREAM OUR ELECTRICITY FOR THE DOM AVG KÖLN MBH PROVIDES THE NIGHT LIGHTING OF THE COLOGNE DOM At night the Cologne Cathedral, the symbol of the city of Cologne, shines especially when it is put in the right light by 220 spotlights. And if the cathedral remained in the dark, something crucial would be missing in the Cologne Rhine panorama. It would also lose its lighthouse and navigation function for many Cologne residents, but above all for the around six million tourists annually. But for years it was the case that the cathedral stayed dark at night. The city lacked the financial means. It was only through a private initiative that it was possible to illuminate the cathedral throughout. AVG Cologne has been providing night lighting since November 23, 2011. Since then, Cologne Cathedral has remained clearly visible from afar, day and night. This is a special commitment for AVG Cologne.
