Our commitment is to sustainable waste management; with the priority towards the recycling and recovery of as much as we can from waste, (the solvents, fuels, oils, metals, sludges which we use to make alternative fuels, etc). We treat waste which cannot be recycled to minimize its environmental impact, through various techno- logical processes wich include: physico-chemical, biological treatment, fuel blemding, stabilization, distillation and neutralization, among others. Even so, a small percentage of waste cannot be recovered or eliminated; this waste is taken for final disposal.

These forms of treatment are provided at our own facilities, but they can also be developed Recycling, recovery, at our clients’ facilities. We facilitate both the physico-chemical, treatment and management of waste, providing turnkey environmental consultancy, collection biological treatment, and treatment of waste and waste consolidation fuel blending, services. stabilization, Our growth model is based on the expansion “ of the waste management business into new distillation and countries, both developed and developing. In neutralisation addition, this growth model also includes the creation of new business lines such as the construction and management of a hydrocarbon storage terminal, started in 2013.

We also provide integrated solutions for the treatment and elimination of non-hazardous waste such as organic waste and sludge from residential and industrial sewage treatment plants, as well as waste from the construction industry. Our services are complemented by the treatment and remediation of contaminated soil; and other activities such as the decontamination and dismantling of out-of-service vehicles, which are finally recycled for the recovery of ferrous and non-ferrous metals.

According to data released by ASEGRE (Asso- ciation of Companies Specializing in the Mana- gement of Waste and Special Resources), there has been a cumulated fall of €218m in the sector since 2008.

The main reasons for this situation are to be found in the economic crisis and the subsequent reduction in industrial activity and in the virtual disappearance of the construction industry in SPAIN & FRANCE many areas.
