Description
With us, waste is a resource to be exploited, an asset that can be recovered and brought back to life. How? Through a beneficial recovery and recycling process.
At our Amato Cannara facility in Tolentino, Marche, we take care of sports and PPE waste.
We are a Benefit Corporation. We believe that, in addition to economic profit, there are other factors that need to be brought into play. The creation of shared value, which, over time, has a social and environmental impact on the territory and the planet. Our vision is: circular, sustainable and shared.
Our project dates back a long way. ESO RECYCLING has its roots in the entrepreneurial idea of Nicolas Meletiou, who, with his long experience in the industry, has always believed that waste could be turned into resources. Even when there was no talk of a circular economy, Nicolas Meletiou dreamt and planned for the recycling and exploitation of office and sports waste. The “recycling cycle” philosophy was a daily leitmotif. The driving force behind any initiative to give a second life to a piece of waste by diverting it from landfill. In 2009, esosport® was launched, a project aimed at collecting and recycling used sports equipment throughout Italy, involving public administrations, companies and sporting goods shops and chains. In 2018, back to work® was initiated by ESO Benefit Corporation to collect and recycle personal protective equipment used by companies.
That of the circular economy: starting with the collection of used sports equipment with esosport® and the recovery of safety shoes with ESO’s back to work®, as well as the recovery of textiles, gloves, masks, helmets and goggles. We recover, we recycle, we process to obtain new secondary raw material, with the aim of significantly reducing the amount of waste sent to landfill.
