The Ecology sector is the Cooperative’s boast; in the last years it has shown a great evolution thanks to an awareness campaign for environment and sustainable development, that has allowed unthinkable investments until not long ago.

In the province of Brescia (in the North of Italy) Solidarietà Provagliese has been the first one to provide a door to door separate waste collection of non-recyclable waste (RSU), kitchen waste (FORSU) and recyclable items (such as paper - glass - can - plastic packaging and garden waste) and to remove dustbins in the area; consequently it has obtained immediately good results: the average recycled material rate has been constantly about 80% of the collected waste.

The high percentage reached is due to special motor vehicles, projected and realized to make waste collection easier, and to the efficient management of municipal waste recycling centres.
