This global spotlight from the World Economic Forum underlines how smart infrastructure can directly contribute to environmental progress and a better quality of life.

The Maroochydore City Centre, spanning 53 hectares on Queensland’s Sunshine Coast, is setting a new benchmark for smart and sustainable urban development in Australia. It is the nation’s first large-scale greenfield city centre to integrate an underground automated waste collection system as part of its core infrastructure.

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 article highlights how Bergen has transitioned from conventional waste trucks and bins to a fully automated underground waste collection system developed by Envac.

Saudi Arabia is on a mission to become a sustainable, circular economy and continues investing in innovative solutions that contribute positively to the environment. Envac is honoured to be part of this journey in the Middle East by becoming a partner in their waste collection demand strategy at the King Abdullah Financial District, the prime business and financial district in the region.

The new ‘Pioneer the Possible: Accelerating the Green Transition’ exhibition in Washington D.C. highlights various proven green solutions from Envac that can help U.S. cities to achieve their sustainability objectives.
