Envac has recently completed an important installation milestone as part of the continued development of Mindemyren in Bergen. A 508 x 8 mm pipe has been installed through a 90-metre-long borehole in rock, forming part of the area’s future infrastructure for automated waste collection.
Envac’s automated waste collection system is playing a key role in Diakonhjemmet Garden’s strategy to create a sustainable, energy-efficient and people-friendly urban environment in Oslo.
Envac has signed an extended contract with Tuna Entreprenad (the project’s main contractor) for Eskilstuna Strängnäs Energy and Environment’s (ESEM) optical sorting plant. The collaboration includes both the modification and expansion of the existing facility and a clear commitment to increasing capacity and sorting efficiency.
We’re excited to share that the Swedish Institute has just released a brand-new video about Envac, filmed in Norra Djurgårdsstaden (Stockholm Royal Seaport). Our team had the pleasure of guiding the crew around the area, showcasing our terminal and how our innovative waste collection system works in one of Stockholm’s most forward-thinking districts.
Envac was delighted to take part in this year’s Emerge East at Barking Riverside, a vibrant celebration of community, innovation, and sustainability. Our interactive stand became a hub of excitement, welcoming over 100 children and parents who eagerly participated in our educational game.
The World Economic Forum (WEF) has spotlighted the City of Bergen’s innovative implementation of Envac’s automated waste collection system as a leading example of sustainable urban innovation.
Bergen, Norway, is once again making headlines — this time in The Washington Post, which spotlights the city’s groundbreaking approach to urban waste management.
The pneumatic system by Envac consists of an initial network of over 500 metres of underground pipes through which the waste is transported from the source, with inlets spread inside the terminal, to the waste collection station. The total investment of the system is over 2.1 million euros.
A groundbreaking study from the Royal Institute of Technology (KTH) reveals that automated, hermetically sealed pipe systems for hospital waste disposal and handling dirty laundry can significantly reduce the amount of bacteria in hospitals compared to traditional hospital waste management methods.
Envac is proud to provide state-of-the-art waste management systems for the forthcoming Health Quarter in Aksdal, Tysvaer Municipality in Norway. This innovative facility is designed to enhance healthcare and welfare services for the community.
The Reduce, Reuse, Recycle project in Sweden’s Norra Djurgårdsstaden (Stockholm Royal Seaport) is delivering fantastic results in waste reduction and recycling improvements, and we’re thrilled to share the outcomes of its second phase! Thanks to the Envac ReFlow application-based service, which digitalises and enhances the waste collection system, residents have been able to reduce their residual waste and improve recycling habits.
The report showcases its steadfast commitment, impact, and progress in promoting sustainable cities by providing innovative automated waste collection solutions. Envac highlights the positive difference it can make across four key areas: quality of life, minimising emissions, resource circularity, and business responsibility.
