has “eSTYlo”
.A.S.A. will be celebrating the 25
th
anniversary of its operations in Central and
Eastern Europe in November 2013
lt will be
our anniversary of growth
and stability
“We started our activities in Austria in 1988”
says Björn Mittendorfer, the CFO of the
company. We used the growth opportunities
and potential of the EEC market and have
expanded over the years to the current 8
countries: Austria, Czech Republic, Slova-
kia, Hungary, Poland, Romania, Bulgaria and
Serbia. Since 2006 the company has been
a part of the Spanish FCC group.
.A.S.A. participated in the 42
nd
annual Brno
International Fashion Fair held from 18 to 20
August this year at the city’s Exhibition Hall.
The company was involved in staging area
called “ECO POINT: Give textile a second
chance”.
.A.S.A. provided information on textile re-
cycling, a service that it began to offer
last year in the Czech Republic where the
.A.S.A. group has a lot of experience acqui-

“.A.S.A.’s results have a steadily growing
tendency”, says Mittendorfer. 2012 yielded
the best results ever. The net income which
.A.S.A. achieved in the last year overcame
the excellent results of 2011 by 3.5%. “Our
financial stability is remarkable, as our ratio
net debt to EBITDA amounts to 1.7 on a
recourse base. This financial stability means
that we can always pay our suppliers on
time.”
This reliability gives a competitive advantage
to .A.S.A., which was noted earlier this year
in a study of the waste management market
in Austria.
“Reliability and financial stability are the cha-
racteristics and values about which we care
systematically. We remain faithful to these
characteristics”, adds Mittendorfer.

a container for collecting old textiles was ins-
talled at the facilities.
