Optimizing public hygiene and health – as indicators of the population’s improved quality of life – characterize SUMA’s work in urban cleaning and its participation in international events of great standing (EXPO’98 and PORTUGAL 2000 – Portuguese Presidency of the European Union Council). The experience gained, and the deployment of the most efficient and innovative methods and equipment, has successfully positioned it on the market with public distinctions from the government (National Competition for Waste Management «Clean Cities» - Aveiro, in 2001; Ílhavo, in 2003, and Sintra, in 2008), and from the European Blue Flag Association (22 beaches distinguished in 2009).
