The 20 Lasso SEMI PE containers for selective biowaste collection are now in operation in the municipality of Seixal. To this end, Lasso Eco Innovation converted containers previously used for mixed waste.
The initiative implemented by the municipality consists of converting one of them to biowaste in locations where there were two unsorted waste containers, encouraging citizens to properly separate organic waste, which was previously deposited in the mixed waste container.
These containers also include an access control system that ensures more efficient and monitored waste disposal management. This solution represents a strategic step in leveraging existing infrastructure, promoting sustainability and circularity.
According to the Seixal City Council, the public’s response has been very positive, reflecting increased environmental awareness and a desire to contribute to a more effective waste management system. This measure is integrated into the new national directive for biowaste management, to which the municipality is actively adapting to meet national and European environmental targets.
“At Lasso Eco Innovation, we remain committed to providing technological and sustainable solutions that support municipalities in achieving their environmental goals, promoting a more efficient and environmentally friendly circular economy,” says Pedro Martins da Costa, CEO of Lasso Eco Innovation.
