Founded in 2001, the company provides integrated waste collection, recycling, urban cleaning, and beach maintenance services across all 10 municipal districts of Naples, covering an infrastructure footprint of approximately 14 million square meters.

The company's service portfolio includes door-to-door (porta a porta) differentiated collection, fixed and itinerant ecological islands for bulky and special waste, roadside container collection, bulky waste pickup, electronic waste (RAEE) recovery, used clothing collection, exhausted battery and medicine disposal, and vegetable oil recovery. Urban hygiene services cover mechanical and manual sweeping, street washing, and litter bin emptying. ASIA Sea, launched in 2023, extends operations into beach cleaning on communal coastal areas. The Educambiente program, running for over 24 years, delivers environmental education through schools, the Antonio D'Acunto Ecological Theme Park, and citizen-facing initiatives.

ASIA Napoli is a municipally owned entity with no private equity, venture capital, or external institutional investment evidenced. Revenue is generated through municipal TARI (waste tax) allocations and user fees for non-domestic customers including offices, hospitals, schools, and commercial establishments. Operational partnerships include coordination with CONAI and its six material consortia for packaging recycling compliance, and a network of authorized treatment plants (Ancaplastica, BE.MA, Di Gennaro SpA, Langella, Ricicla, Italglass, Ambiente SpA, Eco Energy, ECOSISTEM, and others) plus S.T.I.R. facilities at Caivano, Giugliano, and Tufino for downstream processing.

Product overview

Specialized services address specific waste streams including bulky items, electronic equipment (RAEE), textiles, batteries, expired medicines, and vegetable oils. The company also provides urban cleaning services (sweeping, street washing) covering approximately 14 million square meters, beach cleaning (ASIA Sea), and environmental education through the Educambiente program. A dedicated service line targets non-domestic commercial users including offices, hospitals, and schools.
