“The recovery we want” has been the motto of the 15th edition of the National Environmental Congress, which should have been held last November, and had to be postponed due to health restrictions. 1,200 specialists from various departments have worked to organise this event dedicated to making the Circular Economy a reality in all areas of society. During the four-day event, representatives of the business world, Public Agencies and a wide range of professionals have reflected on various issues that affect our environment, such as the rise in e-commerce, mobility habits during the pandemic and how to approach energy transition in a way that preserves biodiversity and the territory.

SIGAUS was present at the event with a stand where it was able to share with visitors its Circular Economy model for industrial oil, which enables the collection and use of 100% of the lubricant waste generated in Spain, through the service it offers to the 67,500 oil-producing establishments in more than 161,000 collections per year. The Organisation also shared the significant results achieved with this effective management, which in 2020 enabled the generation of 55,000 tons of new lubricants thanks to regenerated waste, thus avoiding the emission of 59,000 tons of CO₂.

In addition to sharing this information with visitors, the Organisation also launched a mini-contest during CONAMA on its Facebook and Instagram pages, in order to share with followers its commitment both to this key environmental event and to the Circular Economy.
