Welfare for the environment and animals

• .A.S.A. Abfall Service AG supports the new „TierQuarTier” from the City of Vienna
• Donation for the start of the „TierQuarTier” on the occasion of the opening on March 10th

 

Vienna, March 2015. The new Vienna „TierQuarTier” located in the 22nd district of Vienna opens its gates on March 10th. Around 450 dogs, cats and small animals will find a temporary home there. One third of the construction costs are raised from the City of Vienna through donations. One of the donors is .A.S.A. Abfall Service AG. On the occasion of the opening, .A.S.A. handed over a cheque of 5.000 € to the Viennese councillor for the environment and animal welfare Ulli Sima.

„It’s not a coincidence that in Vienna the protection of animals and environment is consolidated. For a living social responsibility, also aspects of environment and sustainable thinking should be part as well as the principle of welfare of human being and animals”, says Dr. Laub from .A.S.A. Abfall Service AG. The .A.S.A. Abfall Service AG and the City of Vienna have been sharing a reliable and cooperative partnership for 20 years in the fields of waste management and disposal.

The „TierQuarTier” in Vienna is one of the state-of-the-art animal protection competence centres in Europe and corresponds to its high requirements of a contemporary animal care. The area of total 9.700 m² gives a temporary home to more than 150 abandoned, exposed and run away dogs, about 300 cats and hundreds of small animals like hamsters, guinea pigs or rabbits.

.A.S.A. Group (presented newly with the brand FCC Environment) based in Himberg near Vienna is the largest waste management company in CEE with 4.300 employees.
