Next Sunday, April 28, Valencia will host the start of the II edition of La Vuelta Femenina. For the second consecutive year, the race is committed to sustainability thanks to its collaboration with Aquaservice, a leading company in the distribution of bottled water with dispenser in Spain, which will avoid all single-use plastics derived from the consumption of water during the competition.
Thanks to its circular bottled water system with dispenser, Aquaservice will supply a total of 5,000 liters of water: to the cycling teams, members of the organization and attendees, which will avoid the consumption of 160 kg of plastic in the race, equivalent to 10,000 single-use plastic bottles.
After leaving Valencia, the second edition of La Vuelta Femenina by Carrefour.es will visit eight provinces in five different autonomous communities. It will conclude in Madrid on Sunday, May 5. On the sporting side, the cyclists will face a team time trial, a flat stage, two undulating stages, a mid-mountain stage and three mountain stages.
"From Aquaservice we remain committed to sustainable sport and our partnership with La Vuelta femenina is an example of this. Cycling as a sport is very close to our own values: team, excellence and self-improvement are some of them. Thanks to our circular model of bottled water with dispenser, we are transforming great sporting milestones such as La Vuelta. On the other hand, we are very happy to be able to support women's sports in their development".
"Since 2021 La Vuelta and Aquaservice have been developing a successful collaboration to organize a sustainable sporting event. Having Aquaservice in La Vuelta Femenina by Carrefour.es for the second consecutive year is a great joy for us. And not only because it helps us to reduce the environmental impact of the race, but also because it demonstrates the support and commitment of our partner with women's sports," said Fernando Escartín, director of La Vuelta Femenina.

This fountain allows you to regulate the freshness, without having to accumulate bottles in the fridge. And, with its red tap, you can drink at room temperature or hot, if you prefer to use it for cooking or preparing an infusion.

Aquaservice is a circular economy system that generates zero waste. The delivery man, when he brings you the full bottles, collects the empty ones and returns them to the springs. There they are sanitized and reused. Each water bottle has a useful life, capable of storing up to 1,000 liters of mineral water or soft drink. And, of course, at the end of their useful life, they are recycled, so by drinking Aquaservice, you do not generate waste.
The origin of Aquaservice is 100% natural mineral water from the five springs spread throughout Spain. There, in the production centers and applying the most advanced technology, we balance the composition of the mineral water, adding electrolytes, to achieve a light and very soft drink to the palate. Thus, the beverage you enjoy at home is called Refreshing Drink based on natural mineral water. If you try it, you will see that it is: Always the same. Always balanced. Always perfect.
