The presentation of the new cleaning machinery that will operate in the municipalities of Conca de Barberà (Tarragona) was held on 16th September. This fleet of vehicles includes an Eco-Cleaning hydrocleaning unit designed and manufactured by Surtruck.
The presentation ceremony took place in the facilities of the UTE Conca de Barberà III, located in Espluga de Francolí (Tarragona). This joint venture, which has been awarded the cleaning service, is made up of the companies CLD and Urbaser.
The event was attended by the mayors and regional councillors of Conca de Barberà, together with the president of the Regional Council, Magí Trullols. On behalf of Surtruck, Antonio Venegas, commercial director of road cleaning and solar thermal O&M, was present.
