• Aim

• Vision

• Missio

We do realise that waste is inevitable, but our aim consists in turning it to values, rather than letting it pile at waste landfills. We are for Latvia without waste landfills. We are for Latvia with segregated and recycled waste with new value added.

We are convinced that responsible and smart resource usage helps to save both companies and each inhabitant of Latvia. Spending less is not about stagnation, it is about development and higher standard of living. We are for smartness, responsibility and development.
