Muraca

What Muraca does

Muraca S.r.l. is an Italian environmental services company headquartered in Lamezia Terme, Calabria, that provides integrated waste management services across the full lifecycle—from collection and transport through treatment, recovery, and disposal. Founded in 2012, the company operates a fleet of 300+ specialized vehicles and a proprietary waste treatment and recovery facility (Impianto di trattamento e recupero rifiuti) located in Lamezia Terme's industrial zone, which performs mechanical separation, sorting, and preparation of recoverable material fractions. Muraca also offers ancillary services including street cleaning and mechanized sweeping, skip container rental, ecological vehicle rental, sewage suction services, and specialized transport for materials such as Cremonini's red earth products.

The company serves a B2G and B2B customer base, with 30+ public administrations (municipalities) as its primary segment across Calabrian municipalities including Lamezia Terme, Tropea, Vibo Valentia, Locri, Siderno, and Gioia Tauro. Businesses and production facilities form a second primary segment requiring waste pickup, transport documentation, and authorized disposal services, while private citizens represent a smaller segment served through differentiated collection guidance and on-demand pickups. Revenue is generated primarily through multi-year service contracts with municipalities (recurring revenue) and customized service packages for businesses, with pricing determined through consultation based on service scope, frequency, volume, and waste type.

Muraca employs 400+ specialists in waste collection and operates Monday through Friday from its two Lamezia Terme locations—its legal headquarters at Via delle Terme 181 and the operational treatment plant at the Zona Industriale Papa Benedetto XVI. The company is structured as a privately held Italian limited liability company (Società a responsabilità limitata) with €50,000 in share capital and operates exclusively within the Calabria region of southern Italy, with no disclosed external institutional investors or parent company relationships.
