The campaign kicked off on Saturday at Lourinhã Market, attended by António Gomes, a councillor on Lourinhã Municipal Council, and Armando Militão, Valorsul’s managing director. Valorsul has just launched the environmental awareness campaign “Mercado a Reciclar” in the municipality of Lourinhã, in partnership with the Town Council, with the aim of encouraging market traders and visitors to sort recyclable waste correctly within the market environment, thereby promoting its delivery for recycling.

The digitisation project at the Lumiar Sorting Centre has won first prize in the Digital Transformation in Sustainability category. Valorsul was honoured at the National Sustainability Awards, organised by Jornal de Negócios, with the 1st Prize in the Digital Transformation in Sustainability category for its digitisation project at the Lumiar Sorting Centre in Lisbon.

On World Recycling Day, celebrated on May 17th, we remember that every gesture counts and every choice matters. Therefore, we highlight the Tons of Help campaign, a solidarity initiative that combines recycling with social responsibility, through which it was possible to allocate more than €920,000 to social solidarity institutions last year, in the form of financial compensation for recyclable material delivered to EGF companies. These amounts positively impacted approximately 85,000 people through the support provided by 538 institutions that participated in the campaign. The Tons of Help campaign is aimed at social and non-profit institutions in Portugal and is available in the EGF's area of ​​operation, through its 11 concessionary companies, covering approximately 60% of the national territory.
