Envac is one of the leading environmental technology companies in Sweden.
The company invented the automated waste transportation technology in the early 1960s and their systems can now be found all over the world – in residential areas, business premises, town centres, industrial kitchens, hospitals and airports.
Envac has close to 40 offices in 21 countries in North and South Europe, the Middle East, Asia, North and South America.
Envac's automated waste handling solutions represent sustainable, environmentally-sound management of waste, as the system is integrated with other infrastructure and services, such as electricity, sewer systems, district heating, district cooling and water, thus eliminating all open, manual handling. The environmental and efficiency gains from this technology are considerable, particularly for areas with large quantities of waste and strict hygiene requirements.
