Atlas

The Atlas‑Gruppe has applied to the Delmenhorst local court to open insolvency proceedings under self-administration in order to enable a restructuring while maintaining business operations. Management remains in office; the law firm KösterBerner is taking over the operational restructuring and Hendrik Gittermann has been appointed preliminary trustee. Production, spare-parts service and customer service are to continue; the group most recently generated around €150 million in revenue and employs about 400 people, whose wages are secured by insolvency pay through April 2026. The company cites a persistent, industry‑wide market weakness and structural burdens despite already initiated restructuring measures and shareholder support as the reasons. » Altro su wiwo.de

Ben Giles founded Ultima (originally Ben Giles Cleaning) and scaled it into a specialist trauma- and biohazard-cleaning company with a training academy and a network of roughly 600 freelance cleaners.

His work spans crime scenes, mass animal carcasses and extreme sanitation cases, and he documents practices and psychological strains in a memoir and media work. » Altro su theguardian.com
