Europa Press has reported on the agreement between MADRING and Lagain Group to introduce organic waste management solutions during the FORMULA 1 TAG HEUER GRAN PREMIO DE ESPAÑA 2026. The partnership includes LFC biodigesters, compostable bags and technology capable of recording the quantities of waste processed during the event.
The coverage brings additional attention to a partnership that will introduce Lagain Ecosolutions technology into the operations of the Spanish Formula 1 Grand Prix, taking place in Madrid from 11 to 13 September 2026.
The initiative addresses several stages of organic waste management, from source separation to on-site food waste treatment and the collection of operational data.
Europa Press reports on the MADRING and Lagain Group agreement
Europa Press reported on 21 August that MADRING and Lagain Group had reached an agreement to introduce a range of organic waste management solutions during the Spanish Grand Prix.
The partnership will integrate technology designed to support the separation, treatment and monitoring of selected organic waste streams generated during the event.
The solutions include LFC biodigesters for on-site food waste treatment and compostable bags to support source separation.
These systems will form part of MADRING's wider waste management operations during the Grand Prix.
LFC biodigesters for on-site food waste treatment
LFC biodigesters are designed to process food waste directly where it is generated through a biological aerobic digestion process.
Microorganisms break down organic material in the presence of oxygen under controlled operating conditions.
The process produces a liquid effluent, which must be managed in accordance with the conditions applicable to the site's wastewater system.
Because the system operates continuously, food waste can be introduced as it is generated rather than remaining stored for extended periods as solid organic waste.
Combining treatment with operational data
Waste treatment is only one part of the technology.
LFC biodigesters can also record the amount of material introduced and processed, providing operational information about the quantities managed.
This makes it possible to combine treatment and measurement, generating data that can be analysed during the operation of the event.
For an event such as the Spanish Grand Prix, this information can complement daily waste management with data obtained directly from the treatment process.
Compostable bags to support source separation
The partnership also includes the use of compostable bags at selected points within the event's operations.
Their role is to support the collection and source separation of organic waste, making the waste stream easier to identify and manage before reaching the corresponding treatment point.
Correct separation at the point of generation is important to prevent organic material from becoming mixed with other waste fractions.
In this model, compostable bags and LFC biodigesters perform complementary functions: first supporting correct separation and then enabling the appropriate treatment of selected food waste streams.
From organic waste separation to treatment
The approach introduced at MADRING addresses different stages in the management of food and organic waste.
Where food can still be used, the priority is to support its appropriate use. Once food becomes waste, source separation makes it possible to distinguish organic material from other waste streams.
Selected food waste can then be treated on site using LFC aerobic digestion technology.
The resulting approach connects prevention, separation, treatment and measurement within the same operational framework.
Lagain Ecosolutions technology in a high-demand environment
The solutions being introduced at MADRING form part of Lagain Ecosolutions, Lagain Group's range of technologies and solutions focused on waste management.
LFC biodigesters are designed to process food waste through a continuous, automated aerobic digestion process.
Different processing capacities are available to address varying levels of food waste generation, from professional establishments to facilities with higher treatment requirements.
Their use during the Spanish Grand Prix will bring the technology into a demanding operational environment while providing data on the quantities of organic waste processed.
MADRING and the 2026 Spanish Formula 1 Grand Prix
The FORMULA 1 TAG HEUER GRAN PREMIO DE ESPAÑA 2026 will take place in Madrid from 11 to 13 September 2026.
Lagain's solutions will be incorporated into MADRING's wider waste management operations and will complement other initiatives related to food and waste management during the event.
The combination of separation, aerobic digestion and measurement will provide different tools for managing selected organic waste streams generated during Grand Prix operations.
