The distinction, awarded by the Regulatory Entity for Water and Waste Services (ERSAR) as part of SENAG 2026, held in Guimarães, recognizes the rigor, competence, and continuous work of SMCB in ensuring the quality of distributed water and the safety of public supply in the municipality of Castelo Branco.
In 2026, only 56 out of 278 managing entities in mainland Portugal received this seal, highlighting the significance of the recognition and compliance with high quality standards.
This award reinforces SMCB's daily commitment to protecting public health, improving quality of life, and building consumer trust, promoting tap water consumption as a safe, economical, and sustainable option.
The recognition is also a result of the dedication of all employees, particularly the Water Quality Control team, whose rigorous and constant work is fundamental to ensuring the excellence of the water supplied.
SMCB renews its commitment to continue providing residents with high-quality, safe, and reliable water, working daily for the well-being of the entire community.
