Electrical lifting scaffolding in Umesa participated in the project Ecourban in Barcelona, a complex with offices, aparthotel, car parks, gardens and walking areas, for whose construction materials recyclable, free from toxic and fitted with components for companies with environmental guarantees are being used. Also solar panels have been placed to reduce the expenditure of energy in the work, and a green roof collector of water.
The area of platforms has also participated with its machinery at the construction of one of Europe's largest plant for recycling: recycling of Zaragoza Centre. The new facilities, which have begun to work on an experimental basis, provide service to the Aragonese capital and 61 municipalities of the environment. Its processing capacity is 450,000 tonnes of waste and more than 15,000 tons of recyclable containers a year. In addition, it will produce 25,000 tons of compost and 7 mWH of electricity per year. However, the ecoplanta will give service to nearly 70 percent of the Aragonese people over the next 15 years.
