THE Applus+ SOLUTION

At Applus+, we know waste management, as we have over 25 years of experience working with authorities, the industry, managers, or agents to provide them with the best solutions from a technical approach, guaranteeing the final outcome.

Thanks to our presence throughout over 60 countries, this coverage results in a service based on proximity, which implies a detailed knowledge of the territory and the applicable regulatory framework. We provide high-value expertise and digital tools of our own to manage and analyze information.

Our team is made up of specialized waste management technicians, as well as specific project managers who provide the protection and communication required from project inception through its termination.

We understand the changes and needs that the market demands, in line with the circular economy paradigm. In this sense, we participate in business policies aimed at excellence, where the waste vector is understood as an opportunity.

We support and provide advice to public entities or municipal utilities in the provision of effective and quality services, planning the operating management that will be integrated into adapted and adjusted models.

The origin of all these comprehensive strategies is the knowledge of the “zero status” needed to obtain information favoring the most accurate approach, along with our customers.

The experience of Applus+ in waste consulting and inspection is supported by numerous projects comprising strategic planning, management organization and compliance, inspection and control, quality characterization and control, training, communication, and innovation.

Most of our projects are supported by certificates of satisfactory execution, which evidence the excellent performance of our team, and we are accredited as a control body for waste characterization and sampling. We are the first entity to be accredited by the Spanish Accreditation Entity (ENAC, in Spanish) to inspect facilities containing Category A hazardous mining waste.
