The engineering company IGL Luxemburg (IGLux S.à r.l.) was founded in 1989 by the partners of IGW Thomas Turk and Klaus Fricke. This came about as a consequence of the Luxemburg Ministry for the Environment’s project to research the separated  collection and composting of organic waste in the Grand Duchy of Luxemburg. IGLux successfully completed this project and in doing so opened the door for further separated collection projects in Luxemburg.

Since then IGLux has developed into an independent consultancy and servicing business in the areas of waste management, biomasses and public relations work.

Professor Dr. Klaus Fricke withdrew from the company because of his appointment to the TU Braunschweig (Brunswick) in 1999. The long-standing office manager Klaus Groell succeeded him as managing director.
