Zoeller’s legacy
Innovating waste management for decades
Founded in 1947 by Hans Zöller in Mainz, Germany, Zöller-Kipper GmbH began as a developer of mechanical lifting devices for waste bins.
As global demand for efficient waste management systems grew, so did Zoeller’s reach. By the 1980s, the company had expanded into international markets with subsidiaries in England and the Czech Republic, solidifying its status as a trusted global brand.
Today, that same legacy of engineering precision, quality, and innovation continues in South Africa through Zoeller Waste Trucks.
