The Osborne Foundation presents the first luminescent motorway toro, made 100% from recycled glass

El Puerto de Santa María, 27th July, 2017. The Osborne Foundation is celebrating the 60th anniversary of its Toro alongside Spain's motorways. To commemorate this day, the Toro de Osborne has a new "motorway eco-board" in El Puerto de Santa María, its home town. This new board will shine with its own light to raise citizens' awareness of the importance of recycling glass. The board has the same characteristics as the other motorway boards -14 metres high and weighing 4,000 kilos- but it includes a new feature that rejuvenates it, as it is made from 300kg of glass recycled by the town's citizens, thanks to the participation of Ecovidrio.

Chairman of the Osborne Foundation, Tomás Osborne, pointed out that: "The Toro de Osborne celebrated its fiftieth anniversary with a charity element. Now it is celebrating its sixtieth with the promotion of sustainability. Without doubt, our motorway boards are a contemporary symbol that changes with the times".
