Sport is more sustainable with Aquaservice. We eliminate single-use plastic consumption to reduce the environmental impact of sports competitions.
The game for the planet must be won!
Since 2021, "La Vuelta" is the first grand tour that does not use single-use plastic bottles for drinking, thanks to Aquaservice.
By drinking from our dispensers, the great event of Spanish cycling is committed to working in its most sustainable version, promoting responsible consumption that does not generate waste, zero waste.
In addition, women's "La Vuelta" has also joined this initiative so that all riders, teams and organization contribute to take care of the planet.
The Royal Spanish Handball Federation (RFEB) counts on Aquaservice as official supplier of bottled water for drinking in a circular way, without generating waste. .
With our dispensers at your disposal, we accompany the Federation in all matches and competitions held in our country, both with the men's and women's national teams.
In addition, in summer, sustainable handball also reaches the beaches. There we collaborate with the distribution of more than 40,000 liters in all the national venues where the international beach handball circuit is held: el "Arena Handball Tour".
Ibai Llanos' team in the "Kings League", "Porcinos FC", drinks Aquaservice at games, training sessions and even at the homes of the players and their president.
In addition to being comfortable, we are sustainable and thanks to our native circular system, where we reuse and recycle the 20-liter bottles, the equipment does not generate plastic waste when drinking.
To close the circle, Aquaservice distributes the special edition of the "Porcinos FC" thermal bottle, with its own identifying color. Ask for it if you want it.
Solidarity and the fight for cancer research are the maxim of 'Valencia contra el Cáncer' but, every year, both organization and collaborators work even harder to achieve the goal of holding an event 100% sustainable and free of single-use plastics. It is a clear objective that is gradually being achieved thanks to the actions of many of the sponsors who are joining RunCancer.
Specifically, in this 9th edition Aquaservice, the leading company in the distribution of bottled water with dispenser in Spain, as it did in the last edition, has been responsible for hydrating all participants during the competition by donating more than 7,000 liters of water and delivering them in its 100% electric delivery vehicles. As in previous years, the company installed hydration points where, thanks to its circular system of bottled water with dispenser, the use of more than 14,000 single-use plastic bottles was avoided.
Thus, the thousands of participants who have run the circuit have received their water, both in the race refreshment and in the post finish area, in biodegradable cups, which has led to the saving of 224 kg of single-use plastic.
In addition, Aquaservice has also been personally involved in the cause with more than 900 people who are part of the company, as well as their families and friends have participated in the event in one way or another, running, walking or skating.
More than 100 volunteers from Aquaservice con Alma, the company's CSR strategy, have also been involved and have also supported the organization at the refreshment points and along the route. A total of 1,000 people were involved, breaking Aquaservice's record of participation in this year's edition.
These initiatives, together with other sustainable actions that have been carried out for years such as the use of recycled paper bags for the delivery of race numbers, the 100% electric race car of Mercedes-Benz Valdisa or the official T-shirts made with 100% recycled fabric of 42K Running, make 'Valencia contra el Cancer' a pioneering event in sustainability.
The 2024 edition of this 100% solidarity event 'Valencia contra el Cancer' held last Sunday was the largest so far.
The day brought together a total of 18,107 participants in a very festive, emotional and family atmosphere, achieving a total of 90,535 euros thanks to the sale of 100% solidarity bibs, which go entirely to fund cancer research projects. A figure of success thanks to the solidarity of all the people who moved against the disease, whether running, walking or skating.
In addition, this great event is also possible thanks to the 250 volunteers, who have dedicated themselves body and soul for three full days to the cause. From handing out the bib or the T-shirt, to answering all the questions and helping all the participants at all times and in any way they could.
From the Association Against Cancer in Valencia, its president Tomás Trénor, said that “we are very grateful for the selfless work of all of them. Without their commitment and dedication this event would not be possible. They are also life”.
Valencia contra el Cancer' is the great annual event of the RunCáncer Valencia circuit, organized by the Association Against Cancer in Valencia and with the main support of the Diputació de València, CaixaBank and 'la Caixa' Foundation, will reach this 2024, when it celebrates its 10th edition, to about 120 Valencian towns with its 100% solidarity walks and races.
In fact, there are still 24 marches to celebrate until December 29, when the circuit will say goodbye to this special edition with two marches in Faura and Anna. In addition, two of the next 24 races will also host a race: Alcàsser (November 17) and Picassent (December 15). Registrations at 5 euros 100% solidarity are still available on the official website of the circuit (www.runcancer.com).
After the 89 races held so far since this edition began in March, the total amount collected from the sale of race bibs has already reached 419,516 euros. As in each edition, every euro will go entirely to cancer research projects through the funding of pre-doctoral grants, which each year promotes the Association Against Cancer in Valencia.

Thanks to our circular system of bottled water with dispenser, we do not generate impact on the planet. We are committed to circular economy and zero waste policy, also in cultural and sporting events.
Events wishing to consolidate a more sustainable version of their activities, whether sporting or cultural, ask us to drastically reduce the consumption of single-use plastic.
If, like la Vuelta Ciclista, la Real Federación de Balonmano, los Porcinos, los Goya o los Feroz, you want to offer your participants and guests a sustainable version of your event, you can call us at our specialized events team: 960 011 895. You will see how we can help you achieve it.
Thanks to our native circular system, when you drink with Aquaservice dispensers and use our reusable bottles, you are committing to the famous three R’s of sustainability: reduce, reuse and recycle.
Reduce because a single bottle, throughout its useful life (50 cycles) is capable of storing 1,000 liters. If you do the calculation, imagine how many single-use plastic bottles you are not using. This way you take advantage of reuse and, finally, as the containers are recyclable, you do not generate waste. Zero waste.
Therefore, if you drink Aquaservice, you contribute to taking care of the planet with a sustainable way of drinking.
Calculate. Reduce. Compensate.
To achieve our certification, at Aquaservice we work very focused on the three actions. To this end, AENOR verifies both the calculation and the compensation of 100% of CO2 emissions in all the operations we carry out during a year.
Once the scope of the carbon footprint has been calculated, we not only work on reducing emissions with a business model that is increasingly responsible with the environment, but we also activate our compensation plan, reforesting and participating in projects that conserve and protect biodiversity.
