Enviroplast, a company specialized in the manufacture of biodegradable plastics, has won the 'Unicaja a la Empresa Extremeña' Award (Unicaja Award to Extremadura Business), within the framework of the awards granted every year by Grupo ROS.
The ROS Awards are now in their 18th edition and, for the second consecutive year, a jury of 15 people met this Tuesday to designate the winner of the 'Unicaja Award to Extremadura Business'.
As last year, the candidacy was open to the public online, and a total of 15 companies participated. The jury, met at the Palacio de Mayoralgo in Cáceres, selected five finalists: Bigmat Tevisa, Bombones Valcorchero, Himalaya Computing, Stratego and Eviroplast. Of these, the latter was the winner.
Enviroplast, established in 2016, is a leading company in the manufacture of biodegradable plastics. It was born as a response to the needs of certain companies in the agricultural and industrial sectors that demanded a more specialized advisory service in the purchase of their plastic supplies. Currently, it is the only Spanish manufacturer of 100% biodegradable plastic mini rolls, ideal products for urban and/or family gardens.
The Grupo ROS Awards Gala, sponsored by Unicaja, will bring together renowned companies, figures and institutions of the region on 23 May in Badajoz, and has become one of the most important business events in Extremadura.
Unicaja's collaboration in this initiative is part of its interest in "favoring the business fabric and facilitating the economic impulse in its territory of action, with special attention to Extremadura", as highlighted by the Regional Manager of the entity, Julio Morales.
In fact, he stressed that "the company continues to be one of the main groups in Unicaja's financing policy, and, therefore, remains active in supporting their initiatives, which are decisive for the revitalization of the economy and job creation".
