Once again, SIGAUS has tried to support the after-sales area, which groups the largest number of used oil producers (about 40,000 car repair shops) that produce 61,000 tons of oil waste every year. In its 60 m2 stand, with different audiovisual and descriptive material, SIGAUS informed the attending car repair professionals about how important their collaboration is within the waste management process. Visitors also got acquainted with the Universal Collection Service offered by the System, as well as the advantages of joining for free the SIGAUS Car Repair Partner Program, which in addition to providing information about used oil management, offers a specific poster kit that will help communicate their clients about their contribution to the environment.
From its stand, SIGAUS also promoted the #NaturalmenteMotortec contest, in which participants helped communicate through their social media profiles SIGAUS’ work by posting their photo in a small space available called photocall with a message about waste management benefits. Around one hundred visitors participated in this initiative, where they chose to win a weekend at Paradores or a Samsung Galaxy Tab A tablet.

Institutional and Media Participation
New to this 15th Edition of Motortec was the organization of a workshop about Circular Economy in the automotive industry. There was a discussion panel where Fermín Martínez de Hurtado, SIGAUS’ Institutional Relations and Communications Director, shared the IMS’ vision and experience in implementing a Circular Economy success model, like the one implemented in the industrial used oil management. Other participants of this discussion panel were Sigrauto, SIGNUS, TNU, and Fundación para la Economía Circular (FEC).
While participating in Motortec, SIGAUS has also collaborated with different special events of the industry's magazines, and an interview about the role of this type of events in the Ecogestiona show at Radio Intereconomía. Fermín Martínez de Hurtado participated in the interview highlighting, among other aspects, how thanks to SIGAUS’ management, 60,000 tons of new lubricants return to the market every year, which could fill the sump of 15 million passenger cars; and how thanks to energetically valued waste, it was possible to produce 400 GWh of power.
Motortec Automechanika is the main event for the after-sales area in Southern Europe. This edition has boasted over 40,000 m2 of exhibition surface, 7% more than the previous year's, and more than 700 exhibitors, who have welcomed more than 60,000 professionals, of which more than 50% came from car repairs, who attended this event to get acquainted with the industry's latest news.
