Sustainable management, responsibility and development

The vision of the company is to be a leader in the development and introduction of sustainable water, wastewater, and waste management solutions, which can be delivered in an environmentally conscious and economically effective manner.

The main goals are to enable the highest quality and sustainable drinking water supply, wastewater, and waste management services, meeting the needs and expectations of residents, as well as comprehensively develop waste management solutions.

Water is our responsibility. We supply users with drinking water through a modern water supply system according to the legislation and the latest supply standards. The drinking water is of good quality and distributed to users continuously and by the highest safety standards.

The Municipal Wastewater Treatment Plants operate based on the latest mechanical and biological procedures for removing mechanical impurities, organic nutrients, and nitrification. In this way, we achieve the prescribed limit values of wastewater parameters before being discharged into the environment. 

Ljubljana has the highest share of separately collected waste among the capital cities of the European Union, while keeping waste management costs among the lowest in Europe. In addition, residual and bio waste is treated at RCERO Ljubljana into new useful materials, making landfilling waste a distant past.

In order to successfully perform all public utility services, so that systems are in constant and efficient operation, extensive knowledge and experience are required. The daily activities we perform in the ramified networks and numerous facilities and devices in both systems include supervision of the operation and operational status, early identification and elimination of defects, and regular and emergency maintenance.
As good managers, we ensure the safe, continuous, and rational operation of the systems in accordance with the legislation and expectations of the citizens. 

JP VOKA SNAGA drafts long-term development plans for all three public utility systems, designs projects in the area of water supply and sewage systems as well as waste collection and treatment, participates in the preparation of expert bases and projects in relation to developments and amendments to the legislation, and also prepares awareness-raising and information campaigns.

JP VOKA SNAGA's daily work also involves the duties of an approval authority in the procedure of issuing building permits and operating permits and in the stage of connecting to both public water utility systems, preparation of the documentation for the renovation and construction of new buildings, and supervision over their implementation, keeping of the cadastre, storage and processing of many data and reporting to the competent public institutions, replacement, calibration, and reading of water gauges, sampling and laboratory testing of drinking and wastewater, collection of septic tank sludge and sludge from small municipal treatment plants, as well as their maintenance and operational monitoring, control of sewage system connections, and cleaning of sand and oil traps in public areas and other.

An integrated waste management system combines waste collection, transport, treatment, and disposal into a practical waste management system that aims to provide environmental sustainability. This is achieved by combining a range of treatment options including waste prevention and reduction, reuse, recycling, and composting. In short, JP VOKA SNAGA combines a variety of strategies for both waste management and waste reduction.
