The Hera Group has further strengthened its Italian leadership in the waste management sector, particularly in industrial waste treatment, thanks to the binding agreement signed today by its subsidiary, Herambiente Servizi Industriali, concerning the acquisition of 70% of TRS Ecology based in Piacenza, Emilia Romagna region. TRS Ecology has thus transferred to Herambiente its corporate branch responsible for the multifunctional waste treatment platform located in Caorso in Piacenza. With this new facility, when fully operational, Herambiente will process over 64,000 additional tons of industrial waste annually, contributing with approximately 6 million euro to the Hera Group’s consolidated Ebitda, in addition to synergies expected from the integration.

The acquisition of TRS Ecology, which employs over 70 workers and serves approximately 2,700 clients, will allow Hera to expand its presence in the Northwestern Italy and create important synergies with its existing industrial hubs in Pisa, Ravenna and Vicenza provinces. The current ownership, represented by the company’s Sole Director Claudio Dodici, will remain within the new corporate structure, retaining a significant operational role.

The details of the partnership

The TRS facility in Caorso is authorized to treat more than 100,000 tons of waste annually and is organized into four process lines: solid and liquid waste storage; solid and liquid waste reconditioning, sorting, screening and recovery; solid waste volumetric reduction and grinding; solid and liquid waste mixing. In addition to its treatment activities, TRS Ecology can engage in storage, aimed at managing waste from environmental remediation. The Caorso facility currently processes approximately 50,000 tons of waste each year, and with the investments planned by Herambiente, it will be able to increase and streamline its activities, respecting the Group’s circular economy objectives.
