ECOPARC DE BARCELONA

Ecoparc de Barcelona is an environmental facility dedicated to comprehensive treatment of solid waste in the metropolitan Barcelona area.

As a result of the commitment we entered into through the Metropolitan Municipal Waste Management Programme, we serve the city and municipalities that carry out selective collection of waste.
