1. GreenCycle Equipments (Libreville)
Based in Libreville's industrial zone, GreenCycle Equipments has built a reputation as Gabon's go-to for cable recycling solutions. What sets them apart? They don't just sell machines—they listen. "A local recycler once told us their old cable stripper kept jamming on wet wires," says Marie Ndong, the company's sales manager. "We modified our scrap cable stripper equipment with weather-resistant components, and now it's their most reliable tool." Alongside strippers, their hydraulic cutter equipment is a favorite for processing thick copper cables, with adjustable blade pressure to handle everything from household wires to industrial-grade cords. They also offer on-site training, ensuring your team knows how to maximize efficiency without sacrificing safety.
GreenCycle's small but dedicated team prides itself on fast turnaround times—critical in an industry where downtime means lost profits. "Last month, a client in Oyem needed a replacement cutter blade urgently," Marie recalls. "We drove it up ourselves the same day. That's the GreenCycle promise."
2. EcoMachinery Gabon (Port Gentil)
Nestled in Port Gentil's busy port area, EcoMachinery Gabon focuses on heavy-duty recycling equipment, with a special knack for lead acid battery processing. Their lead acid battery breaking and separation system is a marvel of engineering, but it's their hydraulic press machines that steal the show. "We designed our presses to compact lead plates into dense briquettes, reducing transport costs by up to 40%," explains technical director Jean-Pierre Okala. For recyclers dealing with battery casings, their hydraulic cutter equipment slices through plastic and metal like butter, making separation a breeze.
EcoMachinery also understands Gabon's commitment to the environment. "Our systems come with built-in spill trays and acid-neutralizing features," Jean-Pierre adds. "We don't just help you recycle—we help you recycle responsibly." With clients across West Africa, they've become a trusted name for reliability, even in remote areas. "A mine in Cameroon once ordered a press during the rainy season," he laughs. "We delivered it by boat and set it up in three days. No job is too tough."
3. Gabon Recycle Tech (Franceville)
Franceville's Gabon Recycle Tech is where innovation meets e-waste. As circuit boards and old electronics pile up in Gabon's cities, this supplier has carved a niche with their circuit board recycling equipment, which uses dry separation to recover precious metals like gold and silver. But their hydraulic baler equipment is equally impressive—perfect for compacting plastic and metal scraps into neat bales for storage. "We noticed recyclers were struggling with space," says founder Pauline Mboma. "Our balers turn a truckload of loose scrap into a stackable bundle, freeing up yards of warehouse space."
Pauline's team believes in customization. "No two recyclers are the same," she notes. "A small workshop in Lambaréné needs a different baler than a large facility in Libreville. We tweak size, pressure, and cycle times to fit their needs." With a showroom in downtown Franceville, clients can watch the machines in action before buying—a touch that builds trust in an industry where seeing is believing.
4. Sustainable Gear Co. (Oyem)
For small-scale recyclers in Gabon's rural areas, Sustainable Gear Co. in Oyem is a lifeline. Their portable hydraulic briquetter (think: a compact machine that fits in a pickup truck) lets farmers and local collectives process scrap metal on-site, while their lightweight hydraulic cutter equipment is ideal for cutting scrap cables and metal rods. "We started because we saw a gap," says owner Michel Aboubakar. "Big suppliers ignored small recyclers, but those are the people keeping Gabon's communities clean."
Michel's machines are built for durability. "Our cutter has a reinforced steel frame and a blade that lasts 500+ cuts," he says. "We test every unit by cutting through old car axles—if it can handle that, it can handle anything." With affordable pricing and a "pay-as-you-go" maintenance plan, Sustainable Gear has become a favorite among first-time recyclers. "A man from a village outside Oyem bought a cutter last year," Michel smiles. "Now he's processing scrap from three villages and employs two locals. That's the impact we want."
5. MetalMasters Gabon (Mouila)
Mouila's MetalMasters Gabon is all about brute force. Specializing in heavy-duty scrap processing, their 2-shaft shredders tear through appliances, car bodies, and large metal structures, while their hydraulic press machines squeeze shredded metal into dense blocks for smelting. "We work with construction companies and demolition crews," says operations manager Alain Bongo. "They need machines that can handle 10-ton loads without breaking a sweat." Their hydraulic cutter equipment, designed for industrial use, features a 30-ton pressure capacity—enough to cut through steel beams.
Alain's team doesn't just sell machines; they design complete systems. "A client in Port Gentil wanted to process scrap cars," he explains. "We set them up with a shredder, a hydraulic press, and a sorting conveyor. Now they process 50 cars a day." With a warehouse full of spare parts, they guarantee minimal downtime—a promise that has earned them contracts with Gabon's largest construction firms.
6. CleanWaste Solutions (Tchibanga)
As Gabon embraces electric vehicles and renewable energy, lithium-ion battery recycling is becoming critical—and Tchibanga's CleanWaste Solutions is leading the charge. Their Li-ion battery breaking and separating equipment safely processes spent batteries, while their air pollution control machines ensure toxic fumes are filtered out. "Lithium batteries are tricky," says environmental specialist Amara Diop. "Our system uses a dry process to avoid water contamination, and our hydraulic cutter equipment opens battery casings without sparking—safety first."
Amara's team partners with universities to stay ahead of technology. "We recently added a sensor-based sorting feature that identifies different battery chemistries," she notes. "It's like giving the machine a sixth sense." With clients in the renewable energy sector, CleanWaste is helping Gabon build a circular economy for lithium—a resource that will only grow in demand.
7. ResourceHub Equipments (Makokou)
Makokou's ResourceHub Equipments specializes in the messy business of refrigerator and AC recycling—think: bulky appliances filled with refrigerants and metal parts. Their refrigerator recycling equipment uses hydraulic baler equipment to compress metal frames, while their refrigerant extraction machines safely capture gases like Freon. "We worked with the government to meet strict environmental standards," says owner Justin Owono. "Our balers reduce refrigerator volume by 70%, making disposal cheaper and greener."
Justin's team also offers training for handling hazardous materials. "A lot of recyclers don't know how to safely extract refrigerants," he says. "We include a free training session with every machine—because a safe workplace is a productive workplace." With a network of service technicians across Gabon, they're never far when a client needs help.
8. PowerCut Industries (Lambaréné)
Precision is the name of the game at Lambaréné's PowerCut Industries. Their high-pressure hydraulic cutter equipment can make micro-adjustments to the blade angle, ensuring clean cuts on delicate materials like copper wiring and circuit boards. "We serve jewelers, electricians, and small manufacturers who need precise metal pieces," says sales rep Sophie Nzota. Their scrap cable stripper equipment is equally refined, stripping insulation from wires as thin as a thread without damaging the copper.
Sophie prides herself on PowerCut's customer service. "A jeweler in Libreville needed a cutter that could handle gold-plated scrap," she recalls. "We modified our standard model with a gentler pressure setting and delivered it in a week." For PowerCut, no request is too small—because every recycler deserves equipment that works as hard as they do.
9. EcoPro Machinery (Bitam)
Bitam's EcoPro Machinery bridges the gap between wet and dry recycling processes. Their wet process equipment is perfect for separating metals from organic waste, while their dry separators handle plastic and electronic scraps. But it's their hydraulic briquetting machine that's the star—turning loose metal chips into solid briquettes that fetch higher prices at smelters. "We designed it for machine shops," says engineer David Obame. "Now they can recycle their own metal waste instead of paying to haul it away."
David's team is passionate about education. "We host workshops twice a year in Bitam," he says. "Recyclers learn how to combine wet and dry processes for maximum efficiency." With affordable leasing options, EcoPro is making advanced recycling accessible to small businesses across Gabon.
10. AllInOne Recycle Hub (Moanda)
Moanda's AllInOne Recycle Hub lives up to its name, offering everything from lead acid battery recycling plants to hydraulic cutter equipment under one roof. "We're a one-stop shop," says general manager Patricia Oka.
