Rimini, 4 November 2026 – The second day of ECOMONDO 2026 brought industrial technologies and practical solutions for waste recovery, recycling and resource efficiency into the spotlight.

Across the exhibition halls, one message became increasingly clear: the circular economy is no longer just about collecting and separating waste. It is about developing industrial systems capable of recovering valuable materials and bringing them back into the economy.

Industrial shredding and material processing were among the most prominent areas of the exhibition. Companies such as CAMEC, DAIKO and TECNO ECOLOGY showcased equipment and technologies designed for different stages of waste treatment, from size reduction and mechanical processing to preparing materials for further recovery.

Large-scale machinery, including shredders and mobile processing equipment, demonstrated how technological development is changing the operational capabilities of recycling facilities.

Another important area was waste compaction and transport efficiency. Solutions presented by Flexus Baling Systems highlighted the role of specialised equipment in optimising waste handling, reducing transport requirements and improving logistics.

The exhibition also featured machinery for urban maintenance and public services, including equipment from Tuchel and Kramer. These technologies are particularly relevant for municipalities and operators seeking to modernise their services and improve operational efficiency.

Beyond the equipment itself, ECOMONDO provides an opportunity to understand how the European environmental technology industry is responding to growing demands for productivity, resource recovery and more efficient waste management.

For Romania, these developments are especially relevant. Modernising waste treatment infrastructure, improving recycling performance and investing in reliable technologies remain essential steps towards a functioning circular economy.

InfoMediu Europa, an international media partner of ECOMONDO, continues to follow the innovations presented in Rimini, bringing European industry developments closer to Romanian authorities, waste management operators and businesses.

The key takeaway from Day 2: the circular economy needs more than ambitious targets. It needs technology, investment and the industrial capacity to turn waste into valuable resources.
