– while ensuring a greener planet for future generations

Sustainability Report

Envac’s 2025 Sustainability Report explains how its automated, underground waste collection systems improve urban quality of life while reducing truck traffic, emissions, noise and odours and freeing space for greener areas. The work is organised around four focus areas: quality of life, minimising emissions, resource circularity and business responsibility, with documented projects achieving up to about 90% lower emissions from waste collection vehicles and better recycling and energy efficiency through solutions like the Envac Automation Platform and ReFlow.

Contributing towards sustainable urban development

Sustainability has always been at the core of what we do and is an essential driver of our business. We enable smart, sustainable communities and drive the circular economy by redefining how society thinks of waste – today and for future generations.

With 2.5 billion more people living in urban areas by 2050 and a doubling of the amount of waste generated, cities require smarter and more sustainable waste management solutions. Envac is part of the broader solution by promoting circular resource use and carbon neutrality while improving quality of life and creating added value for property developers.

Minimise Emissions

Energy efficiency is essential for combating climate change, since it significantly cuts down on both direct greenhouse gas emissions (GHG) from fossil fuel use and indirect emissions from electricity generation. Envac’s technology and automation helps facility and infrastructure managers save energy and minimise emissions.

Business Responsibility

Envac is committed to ensuring that both our employees and external partners operate responsibly and safely. Guided by corporate governance policies and principles, our approach to business responsibility rests on three key pillars: fair and ethical business, ethical supply chains, and healthy, safe workplaces.

The preservation of the environment in cities and the improvement of the quality of life in urban environments are two of the most important challenges that public managers will have to face in the next 30 years. Addressing them will require collaboration among all citizens in addition to technological innovation.
