Reducing waste at cultural and sporting events

The project

Zero wasteSensibilization
Aremacs helps events (cultural, sporting or business) to reduce and recycle the waste produced during their events, and to raise public awareness.
Action regions
France
250
events per year (festivals, sports competitions, local events, etc.)
1000 t
of waste collected in 2024 (including 470 tonnes recovered)
3 million
people in contact with teams and awareness tools per year

Solution

AREMACS offers comprehensive, operational support for the reduction and responsible management of waste: audit and advice upstream; field intervention with volunteers at the event; assessment and recommendations downstream.
The AREMACS teams also go out to meet the public to raise awareness of the challenges of eco-responsibility.

News

Use of the money

The donations collected will enable:
- to purchase equipment to take care of volunteers and teams (stuffed gloves and raincoat, tarpaulins for shelter during waste sorting)
- to update our awareness-raising animations.
- toupdate our communication tools (visual identity, kakemonos, banners for our sorting media)
Why we love it?

Arthur and Julien want to reconcile cultural, sporting or social events with ecology and the preservation of resources, and we say yes!

The presence of Aremacs by our side is now a matter of course. The management teams and volunteers are totally dedicated, and to see them involved in the success of our events is terribly reassuring! Bravo for this commitment, renewed every year since 2011!
