ACR+ member EMULSA has started the gradual placement of 526 organic waste containers for the separate collection of waste in the streets of the urban centre of Gijón.

The introduction of the organic waste container is part of EMULSA's plans to promote waste recycling as required by the EU. Out of the 125,000 tonnes of waste that are generated each year in the municipality, 30.34% was recycled in 2019, when Europe requires that in 2020 50% of the municipal waste must be recycled.
