THE PAULY GROUP GmbH & Co. KG

THE PAULY GROUP GmbH & Co. KG, based in Neu-Eichenberg, Germany, is a mid-sized enterprise group specializing in ecotechnology with over 40 years of market leadership in ecological sludge treatment systems across Germany. The group operates through six business divisions. Its flagship offering, KLÄRSCHILF, is a nature-based sludge dewatering process that uses specially cultivated reed beds to passively dewater sewage sludge without energy-intensive mechanical presses, chemicals, or noise. The reed rhizome network and layered soil structure provide continuous drainage and evapotranspiration. KLÄRSCHILF operates as a general contractor providing feasibility studies, planning and construction, operational supervision, and final clearing and utilization of dewatered material, with over 100 installations operational across diverse settings from islands to urban municipalities — including a 20-year operational track record at KSV Schwarzenbeck. The FreibadPLUS division delivers biological water treatment technology for outdoor swimming pools, replacing conventional chemical treatment with natural processes. FLORATOP and HEIMATKONTOR produce quality soils and substrates on a compost basis, recently promoting peat-free gardening initiatives. PLANCO-TEC GmbH, operating since 1983 from Neu-Eichenberg, provides environmental analytics and hygienic safety certification for biological treatment processes. EKO-Terra rounds out the group's ecotechnology portfolio. The Pauly Group serves municipalities, regional utility associations, and private enterprises throughout Germany.
