In the event of a favorable vote, this acquisition would be carried out through a Singaporean acquisition company Séché Holdings (SG) Pte. Ltd.
Present since 1995 across the entire value chain of the hazardous waste sector and holding a market share of around 32%, Eco is today the leading operator on the hazardous waste recovery and treatment markets in Singapore.
