Overview
GALANGAL is a Latvian waste management and recycling company based in Cēres parish, Tukuma municipality. According to its official website, the company has been working in recycling and waste management for around 15 years and employs a team of roughly 30 people, cooperating across several European countries. It processes tens of thousands of tonnes of waste per year and converts that material into usable products such as plastic regrind, film granules, refuse bags, or energy. The company's service range covers the full loop from collection to reprocessing. It collects and accepts recyclable waste using its own transport or a manipulator crane — with a particular focus on agricultural film and big-bag sacks for farmers — and prepares the documentation for each collection. Waste can also be delivered to its site in Cēres parish, Tukuma municipality, by prior arrangement. On the processing side, GALANGAL produces plastic regrind and film granules, as well as refuse bags under the "Labais Maiss" ("Good Bag") name, made from packaging collected from customers. The stated aim is to return raw materials to circulation as genuinely usable products rather than letting them disappear. The company also supplies and rents press containers (16 m³ and 20 m³), offers an automatic loading system for 1.1 m³ containers, and provides SMS fill-level monitoring. It can deliver and rent 240 L and 1.1 m³ containers and exchange a press container within 24 hours. Its positioning is built around closing the material loop — from waste collection through recycling and back into industry and everyday use.
History
GALANGAL is a Latvian company active in waste collection and recycling. Its official website states that the company has been working in recycling and waste management for around 15 years, which places its operational origins in the late 2000s or early 2010s, though the exact founding year is not given in the available evidence. The company is based in Cēres parish, Tukuma municipality, Latvia, and operates with a team of roughly 30 employees. From its base in Tukuma municipality, GALANGAL has built a service model that spans the entire material loop. It collects recyclable waste with its own transport or a manipulator crane, with a particular emphasis on serving farmers — collecting agricultural film and big-bag sacks — and prepares documentation for each collection. Customers can also deliver waste to the company's site by prior arrangement. The company's processing operations produce plastic regrind and film granules, as well as refuse bags sold under the "Labais Maiss" brand, made from packaging collected from customers. This reflects a strategy of returning raw materials to circulation as real, usable products. GALANGAL also provides waste logistics equipment and services: it installs and rents press containers of 16 m³ and 20 m³, offers an automatic loading system for 1.1 m³ containers, and provides SMS fill-level monitoring. It can deliver and rent 240 L and 1.1 m³ containers and exchange a press container within 24 hours. According to its website, the company cooperates across several European countries and processes tens of thousands of tonnes of waste per year, converting it into regrind, granules, bags, or energy. The available evidence does not identify founders, ownership structure, or specific dates for milestones, so those details remain unconfirmed.
