Derichebourg Group is a French multinational that provides environmental services and multiservice solutions to a range of clients. Its core activities include waste collection, sorting, recycling, and valorisation, as well as facility management, temporary staffing, and airport support services. The group serves municipal authorities, industrial companies, and private sector organisations seeking sustainable and integrated service offerings. By combining recycling expertise with ancillary support functions, Derichebourg addresses both environmental and operational needs across its markets.

The company maintains its headquarters in France and operates in multiple countries throughout Europe and beyond. It employs thousands of staff who work across its various business lines to deliver services locally and internationally. Derichebourg is listed on Euronext Paris, reflecting its status as a publicly traded enterprise with governance obligations to shareholders. While specific figures on revenue or workforce size are not disclosed in the available sources, its geographic spread indicates a notable operational footprint.

A distinguishing attribute of Derichebourg is its focus on the circular economy, linking waste treatment with resource recovery to reduce environmental impact. The group has obtained certifications such as ISO 14001 for environmental management and ISO 9001 for quality management, underscoring its commitment to standardized processes. It is recognised for specialised capabilities in hazardous waste handling, secure document destruction, and the recycling of metals and plastics. These competencies position Derichebourg as a provider that combines environmental stewardship with practical support services for its clients.

Structurally, Derichebourg SA acts as the parent company overseeing wholly owned subsidiaries including Derichebourg Environnement and Derichebourg Multiservices. In November 2023, the group reported a cyberattack that targeted both the parent organisation and a subsidiary, leading to temporary service slowdowns and prompting immediate preventive and corrective measures. The incident highlighted the interconnected nature of its operations and the importance of robust cybersecurity across the group. Ongoing technical investigations were undertaken to assess the intrusion’s full scope and to strengthen security posture moving forward.
