AwSV-Compliant Scrap Storage at Reifenhäuser Heinsberg with Two NCLD 100 HS Systems
The Challenge at Reifenhäuser Heinsberg
Reifenhäuser Heinsberg GmbH generates scrap metal during its production processes, which needs to be collected in skip containers and stored safely outdoors. Key requirements for the storage solution included reliable protection against weather conditions as well as safe construction and compliance with the German AwSV regulations governing facilities handling substances hazardous to water.
The Solution: Two CONSTELLMAT NCLD 100 HS Systems
Two CONSTELLMAT NCLD 100 HS container storage systems were installed at Reifenhäuser Heinsberg. The systems enable organised storage of skip containers filled with scrap metal and reliably protect them against precipitation.
At the same time, the integrated spill containment system ensures the safe retention of any liquids that may escape. The NCLD 100 HS systems therefore provide a practical solution for the AwSV-compliant outdoor storage of skip containers.
Both systems also provide clearly designated storage areas and support organised operational processes. This allows metal chips and scrap materials to be stored safely, cleanly and systematically.
The Result
With two NCLD 100 HS systems, Reifenhäuser Heinsberg now has a safe and organised solution for storing scrap metal in skip containers. The covered container storage systems combine weather protection, organised storage processes and reliable liquid containment, supporting the practical implementation of requirements for the storage of substances hazardous to water.
Project: Reifenhäuser Heinsberg GmbH, Heinsberg, Germany
Systems: 2 × CONSTELLMAT NCLD 100 HS
Application: Storage of scrap metal in skip containers
Configuration: Covered, with integrated spill containment system, compliant with German AwSV requirements
Safe Containment – Reliable Protection
An important feature of the NCLD 100 HS is its integrated, non-load-bearing spill containment system. It supports the safe storage of containers that may contain residues of substances hazardous to water and helps protect the underlying surface against contamination.
The design provides a solution in compliance with the German WHG and AwSV requirements, establishing an important foundation for the responsible handling of potential environmental hazards.
Outdoor Storage with Additional Protection
The covered design protects the stored containers and their contents against weather conditions. At the same time, the enclosed construction provides additional protection against unauthorised access and theft.
This combination of roofing, spill containment and access protection offers significant added value in everyday operations, particularly when storing valuable metal chips.
Installed On-Site by CONSTELLMAT
The technology is not the only thing supplied by CONSTELLMAT: Our own team also installed both NCLD 100 HS systems directly at REIFENHÄUSER.
From planning and manufacturing through delivery and on-site installation, the entire project was handled by CONSTELLMAT from a single source. This ensured that the systems were precisely adapted to the site’s requirements and professionally installed.
More Organisation. More Safety. More Control.
With the two NCLD 100 HS systems, REIFENHÄUSER has established a clearly structured waste disposal area for the outdoor storage of substances hazardous to water.
The solution combines:
- Design in compliance with German WHG and AwSV requirements
- Integrated spill containment system
- Protection against weather conditions
- Additional protection against theft and unauthorised access
- Clearly designated container storage areas
- Robust construction for industrial applications
- Professional on-site installation by CONSTELLMAT
The result speaks for itself: greater organisation in the waste disposal area, increased safety for the site and a professional solution for the everyday storage of substances hazardous to water.
REIFENHÄUSER & CONSTELLMAT – Working Together for Safe and Reliable Storage
The project at REIFENHÄUSER Heinsberg GmbH demonstrates how a simple container area can be transformed into a well-designed and organised waste disposal facility.
Two NCLD 100 HS systems, one clear objective: safe, organised and environmentally responsible storage of stainless steel scrap and other types of scrap metal.

Frequently Asked Questions About This Reference Project
Which companies would benefit from a similar solution?
Structured outdoor waste disposal is particularly beneficial even when a company handles only one material stream and needs to optimise its day-to-day waste management processes.
Does the company’s entire waste disposal process need to be redesigned?
No. In many cases, existing processes can be maintained and specifically improved by creating clearly designated areas and introducing a more structured layout.
How customised can such a solution be?
The solution is generally tailored to the existing conditions at the facility, taking into account factors such as available space, material types and internal operational processes.
How can you identify when improvements are needed?
Typical signs include unclear responsibilities, poorly organised collection areas and increased coordination efforts in day-to-day operations.
How is a project like this implemented in practice?
As a rule, the existing situation is first analysed before a structured solution is developed that can be integrated into the company’s existing operational processes.
