The industrial sector is one of the main areas of SIGAUS’s activity, which already encompasses 10.000 used oil manufacturers. It is for this reason that BIEMH, as well as being the Spain’s main trade fair in its sector and the third largest in Europe, is an unmissable event for the Company, as it has taken part in the last three editions.
On this occasion, SIGAUS had a stand measuring 60 m2 which received more than 2,000 visitors over the six days that the event lasted, seeing professional, students and the public in general pass through its doors. Through the use of explanatory materials and diverse informative videos, SIGAUS explained to attendees how it handles used industrial oils, and how through its used industrial oils management network this can be collected free of charge from any point in Spain. Likewise, and by using an explanatory model, the stand’s visitors were able to see first-hand the different treatment methods to which reside is submitted and the environmental benefits resulting from the foregoing.
Similarly, companies which deal with or import industrial oils or their components were informed of the legal obligations that are their duty once the product has ended its working life. The latter creating major levels of interest with regard to the handling of used lubricants, as this a type of residue whose complexity implies a different series of economic conditions when undertaking their handling.
