Enviroserv Waste Management (Pty) Ltd
Enviroserv Waste Management (Pty) Ltd is a private company incorporated in South Africa under registration number 1994/000280/06, with its status recorded as active. The company operates in the waste-management and environmental-services sector, providing collection, treatment and disposal of hazardous and non-hazardous waste, industrial cleaning, on-site waste management, waste minimisation and beneficiation, and the development and operation of landfill sites.
Multiple South African industry sources and business directories describe Enviroserv Waste Management, trading as EnviroServ, as one of the country’s largest dedicated waste-management operators, with a service history commonly dated to 1979. That founding reference describes the wider EnviroServ business rather than necessarily the incorporation date of this specific registered legal entity, whose registration number instead points to a 1994 CIPC filing (see the group and FAQ sections of this profile for more on that discrepancy).
The company is commonly reported as being based in Gauteng, with a facility recorded at Meadowdale, Germiston, and reported operating activity extending into Mozambique and Uganda in addition to South Africa. Its principal customer industries include mining, energy, manufacturing, and food and beverage production, for which it provides regulated hazardous-waste handling and compliance-focused disposal services.
A corporate transaction affecting the wider EnviroServ business’s ownership base was completed on 30 September 2022; detail on the resulting shareholding is provided in the shareholders and group-structure sections of this profile rather than here. In connection with that 2022 transaction, the wider EnviroServ business was reported to employ approximately 2,200 people and to generate annual revenue exceeding EUR 80 million, treating approximately 1.7 million tonnes of hazardous and general waste and recycling around 125,000 tonnes per year. These figures were reported at the level of the wider EnviroServ business at that time and have not been independently confirmed as the standalone results of this specific legal entity.

Shareholders
Shareholders of Enviroserv Waste Management (Pty) Ltd
Public information on the direct, CIPC-registered shareholders of this specific legal entity (registration number 1994/000280/06) could not be independently retrieved in this research session, since South Africa’s CIPC company-search portal requires an authenticated eServices account and no free registry extract was accessible. At the wider EnviroServ business level, both EnviroServ’s own website and an official SUEZ press release confirm that, effective 30 September 2022, EnviroServ Proprietary Holdings Limited and its subsidiaries were acquired by a consortium comprising SUEZ (51%), Royal Bafokeng Holdings, “RBH” (24.5%), and African Infrastructure Investment Managers’ IDEAS Managed Fund, “AIIM” (24.5%), replacing a prior private-equity ownership group led by Rockwood Private Equity. It has not been confirmed from a document naming this exact registration number whether Enviroserv Waste Management (Pty) Ltd is itself the entity referred to as “EnviroServ Proprietary Holdings Limited” in that transaction, or a subsidiary held beneath it. These percentages therefore relate to the group holding-company level as at 30 September 2022 and should not be read as a confirmed CIPC shareholding register for this specific Pty Ltd.
Data availability
Shareholder disclosure for this entity is classified as Restricted: South Africa’s CIPC does hold shareholder registers for private companies, but they are not freely searchable without an authenticated eServices or BizPortal account, so the entity-level register could not be verified directly in this session. Group-level ownership is well documented through the company’s own website and the acquirer’s official press release, but it has not been formally traced down to this specific registration number.

Officers
Directors and officers of Enviroserv Waste Management (Pty) Ltd
No CIPC-filed director or officer register for this specific entity (registration number 1994/000280/06) was accessible in this research session; South Africa’s CIPC officer records require an authenticated eServices account and were not retrievable through public search. Based on the company’s own website and independent South African trade-press coverage, Dean Thompson holds the role of Chief Executive Officer of the EnviroServ business, a role reported in a company announcement dated 21 January 2022 and still reported to be held as of a trade-press interview published 18 March 2025. This is reported here as an executive/management title rather than a confirmed CIPC-registered directorship; it has not been established whether Dean Thompson is formally recorded as a director of this exact legal entity on the CIPC register. No other current or former officers could be verified from reputable primary or official sources within the research budget for this profile. Nationality and country of residence are not disclosed in either source and are not stated here.
Data availability
Officer information for this entity is classified as Not found at the CIPC-register level: South Africa’s companies register does maintain director records, but they are not accessible through public web search or unauthenticated lookup, so no complete or dated officer filing could be reviewed for this profile. The one confirmed role (CEO) comes from company and press announcements rather than a registry filing.

Group Structure
Group structure of Enviroserv Waste Management (Pty) Ltd
Enviroserv Waste Management (Pty) Ltd is not reported as an independent, unaffiliated company: reliable official sources confirm that the wider EnviroServ business became part of an international ownership group on 30 September 2022. SUEZ, a French-headquartered water, waste and environmental-services group, together with Royal Bafokeng Holdings and African Infrastructure Investment Managers’ IDEAS Managed Fund, acquired EnviroServ Proprietary Holdings Limited and its subsidiaries, with reported holdings of 51%, 24.5% and 24.5% respectively. A separate, extended SUEZ corporate-family tree (SUEZ Holding and numerous SUEZ-branded entities, mostly in France) is also carried on file against this profile; that tree describes SUEZ’s own global group and has not been independently verified as accurately reflecting Enviroserv Waste Management (Pty) Ltd’s specific place within it, so it is treated here as a possible relationship (unverified) rather than a confirmed one. No official CIPC filing naming registration number 1994/000280/06 as a party to the 2022 transaction, and no document confirming an immediate-parent relationship for this specific Pty Ltd, was located in this research session.

Recent structural changes
Acquisition: on 30 September 2022, SUEZ, together with Royal Bafokeng Holdings and AIIM’s IDEAS Managed Fund, completed the acquisition of EnviroServ Proprietary Holdings Limited and its subsidiaries from a prior private-equity ownership group led by Rockwood Private Equity (source: SUEZ press release; EnviroServ website).
Data availability
Corporate-linkage information for this entity is classified as Partial: a group-level acquisition affecting the wider EnviroServ business is well documented through official sources, but no CIPC filing or other document was located that names Enviroserv Waste Management (Pty) Ltd, registration 1994/000280/06, directly as a party, so its precise position within the group, for example as the acquired holding company itself versus an operating subsidiary beneath it, is not confirmed.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is Enviroserv Waste Management (Pty) Ltd's company registration number?
Enviroserv Waste Management (Pty) Ltd's on-file registration number is 1994/000280/06, in the standard format used by South Africa's Companies and Intellectual Property Commission (CIPC). Its recorded status is Active.
Is Enviroserv Waste Management (Pty) Ltd currently active?
The company's on-file registry status is Active. An active status confirms the entity has not been deregistered or dissolved; it is not, on its own, confirmation that the company is currently trading.
Was Enviroserv Waste Management (Pty) Ltd incorporated in 1994 or 1995?
This is unresolved from the sources reviewed. The on-file incorporation date is 1995-01-01, which follows a common placeholder pattern (1 January of a given year) rather than necessarily being an exact filing date. South African CIPC registration numbers such as 1994/000280/06 conventionally encode the year of registration in their first four digits, which would point to 1994 rather than 1995. No CIPC filing, gazette notice, or other primary source giving an exact registration day and month could be retrieved in this research session, since CIPC's own company-search portal requires an authenticated account. On balance, 1994 is the more likely registration year based on the registration-number format, but this has not been confirmed against a primary CIPC record, and the exact day and month remain unknown.
Where is Enviroserv Waste Management (Pty) Ltd registered and where does it operate?
The company is registered in South Africa. It is commonly reported as being based in Gauteng, with a facility recorded at Meadowdale, Germiston, and reported operating activity extending into Mozambique and Uganda in addition to South Africa.
What does Enviroserv Waste Management (Pty) Ltd do?
It operates in the waste-management and environmental-services sector, providing collection, treatment and disposal of hazardous and non-hazardous waste, industrial cleaning, on-site waste management, waste minimisation and beneficiation, and the development and operation of landfill sites, principally for mining, energy, manufacturing, and food and beverage clients.
Who owns Enviroserv Waste Management (Pty) Ltd?
A confirmed, entity-specific shareholder register for this exact Pty Ltd could not be retrieved, since South Africa's CIPC shareholder records require an authenticated account. At the wider EnviroServ business level, official sources (EnviroServ's own website and a SUEZ press release) confirm that SUEZ (51%), Royal Bafokeng Holdings (24.5%) and AIIM's IDEAS Managed Fund (24.5%) acquired EnviroServ Proprietary Holdings Limited and its subsidiaries on 30 September 2022, replacing a private-equity group led by Rockwood Private Equity. Whether this specific registered entity is that holding company or a subsidiary of it has not been confirmed.
Who is Enviroserv Waste Management (Pty) Ltd's Ultimate Beneficial Owner (UBO)?
No natural-person Ultimate Beneficial Owner has been identified from the sources reviewed. The disclosed shareholders at group level (SUEZ, Royal Bafokeng Holdings, and AIIM's IDEAS Managed Fund) are themselves corporate or institutional entities, so no UBO percentage can be calculated without tracing their own ownership, which was outside the scope of this research.
Who are the directors and officers of Enviroserv Waste Management (Pty) Ltd?

This is an executive title reported in company and press announcements, not a confirmed CIPC directorship record.
Is Enviroserv Waste Management (Pty) Ltd part of a corporate group?
The wider EnviroServ business is reported to be part of a group led by SUEZ, alongside Royal Bafokeng Holdings and AIIM, following a transaction completed on 30 September 2022. Whether this specific registered Pty Ltd is itself the acquired holding company or an operating subsidiary within that structure has not been confirmed from a document naming this exact registration number.
