Having around 19.7 million population, Romania is the 6th largest EU member state and a dynamically growing market with many untapped business opportunities for which Finland has a competitive offering. Waste management and recycling is one of the areas with significant needs and ambitious plans to be implemented thanks to secured external financing.

  • Implementation of new collecting centres
