Utility division

In 1998 we introduced a new modern waste management method, which is based on the following principles:

• separation of waste at source by type and further processing method,
• separation of all re-usable waste for recovery (recycling),
• biological processing of biodegradable waste,
• minimum depositing of other waste (deposit site).

After a few years of management according to the principles stated above, we have established that less than 20% of total waste is deposited at the deposit site for non-reusable waste.
The following waste is put to good use: wood, stable manure, shavings, metal waste, paper and residues of cargo of biological origin.

Utility activities cover the following tasks:

• collection, transport, recycling and destruction of waste,
• composting of biological waste and the sale of compost,
• mechanised cleaning of streets, handling areas and warehouses,
• supervision and maintenance of the sewage system, oil traps and cesspits,
• washing of containers and vehicles.
