The intermunicipal company Igretec has released its 2026 Environmental Statement, an official document detailing its sanitation and wastewater management performance for 2025 and setting priorities for the 2026-2028 period.

As part of its EMAS (Eco-Management and Audit Scheme) registration, Igretec has published its 2026 Environmental Statement. This official document reports on the environmental performance of its sanitation and wastewater management activities in 2025 and establishes priorities for the 2026-2028 period.
This transparent and verifiable report highlights Igretec's daily results in operating essential infrastructure for wastewater collection and treatment. It specifically details the volumes treated and the performance in eliminating pollutants such as BOD5, COD, nitrogen, and phosphorus before treated water is released into the natural environment.
The statement also analyzes sludge valorization, waste management, resource consumption (water, energy, raw materials), air emissions, as well as actions taken for biodiversity and nuisance control.
Beyond a mere reporting obligation, the EMAS approach, of which this statement is a central element, integrates Igretec's environmental management into a continuous process of measurement, evaluation, and improvement. It reflects the commitments of the company's Environmental and Energy Management System (SMEÉ).
Planned investment programs for the 2022-2027 period and new objectives set for 2026-2028 aim to enhance facility performance and reduce environmental risks and impacts. Publishing these results allows partners, public authorities, and citizens to have clear information on Igretec's environmental performance and commitments.
