In 25 Alcampo centres in Spain, organic waste is segregated into sealed containers that, once filled, are transported by Saica Natur to a composting plant belonging to Castellano Manchega de Limpiezas, for recovery. The compost obtained is subsequently used by Semillas Batllé to manufacture the universal substrate enriched with this high-quality compost, in 10 % of the final composition of the product. In addition, the universal substrate is sold in a container made of recycled plastic (Natur Cycle Plus plant) and the water consumption in the manufacture of the shorts is reduced by 39 %.

Entity Saica Natur S.L. in collaboration with Auchan Retail España S.L., Castellano Manchega De Limpiezas S.L.U. and Semillas Batllé S.A.
