A successful transition from manual waste sorting to high tech processes
Created in the year 2000, Ar-Val built its reputation as a high quality service provider as quickly as it produced its first Material Recovery Facilities.

After its acquisition in 2014 by Ceres Group, with its 56 million euro turnover in 2016 and 275 employees, Ar-Val can, if required, count on the resources and skills of its sister companies.
Today, under the administration of its Managing Director Yann Masson, Ar-Val has 65 employees, including 30 in the design office. They work on five to ten projects at a time for the French and the International market, attaining a 33 million euro turnover in 2016.
