The strength of a large Group
We are a company of the Hera Group founded with the aim of combining expertise in the field of waste management with a complete range of treatment facilities under an industrial model that understands the prospects of the Italian market and manages resources in a careful and sustainable way.
Sustainable and innovative solutions in integrated waste management
Herambiente, which is 75% owned by the Hera Group, owns its waste treatment facilities and has grown over time by acquiring other companies in its sector to become a leader both in terms of the amount of waste treated and in terms of coverage of the entire national territory. The remaining 25% is held by EWHL European Waste Holdings Limited, a company incorporated under British law, 50% owned by British Infrastructure Fund 3i Managed Infrastructure Acquisitions LP and 50% by Dutch Pension Fund Stichting Pensioenfonds ABP.

What we do
We organise and manage all operational and commercial activities of waste treatment and recovery plants. Through our expertise, knowledge of the issues, identification of collective needs and a network of qualified partners we are capable of safeguarding and caring for the environmental and industrial heritage across the whole country. We manage directly with our subsidiaries or with qualified national and foreign partners all the activities related to the treatment, recovery and disposal of solid and liquid, municipal and special waste through a plant system based on the most modern technologies.
Why we do it
OUR MISSION
“We offer sustainable and innovative solutions in integrated waste management, responding to the challenges of the future of companies and communities by creating value and new resources.”
In recent years we have grown and the motivation that underpins our work has also evolved. Our target market has gone beyond our local area and community, including companies and offering innovative services to different industrial sectors and large national and international players. Our sphere of action has expanded to include the European market. Thanks to the acquisitions we have made in recent years, we are now in a position to present ourselves not only as a provider of waste treatment services, but also as a manufacturer of semi-finished and finished products derived from waste, with a focus on customer care and environmental sustainability.

From the origins to market leadership
The roots of our parent company go back almost one hundred years, to the twentieth century, when the municipalities of the region of Emilia Romagna began to entrust municipal companies with the management of waste and, over the years, with the construction of treatment plants for municipal waste. Since Herambiente was founded in 2009, the company has grown year after year, acquiring companies, facilities and strategic skills that have made it one of the leading companies in the market today.
