The PK team participated in the 11th International Waste Management Conference in Poreč from 5 to 7 June, organized by Business Media Croatia, our long-standing partner in the field of media cooperation. The conference brought together more than 300 experts, representatives of utility companies and companies involved in waste collection and recovery. Representatives of PK doo presented the latest technological solutions for the efficient provision of utility services. The best-selling utility superstructure, the SKK115-4.2 rear utility tipper and the Palfinger PK 17.001 SLD3 crane equipped with a grab, were presented at the conference. In addition to the above, the conference presented a Palfinger work basket P130A on a Ford Ranger, an Epsilon crane C70G77 and a Palfinger PK 3800 for emptying underground/semi-underground containers, a three-sided tipper and a PK crane on a B category vehicle, and a communal retrofit with an Epsilon crane and a Palfinger puller, and finally a communal semi-trailer PPKK53 for compacting and transporting municipal waste.
At the Conference, which was organized by Business Media Croatia, publisher of Tehnoeko magazine, and brought together around 300 participants, domestic and international experts discussed all aspects of using waste as a valuable resource and the possibilities for applying current good practices to as many local environments as possible. A circular economy focused on recycling and energy recovery represents a key measure that offers an opportunity to shape the European economy and society by 2050 in a climate-neutral and sustainable manner. And it was the lectures and panels at the conference that attempted to provide an answer to how this can be achieved.
“We had the opportunity to hear from top experts in waste management about the latest waste processing technologies, the use of artificial intelligence, new legal frameworks, successful international and domestic practices, as well as the challenges this sector faces and ways to successfully overcome them,” said Nenad Žunec, director of Business Media Croatia.
