Textile waste sorting with Tomra’s AUTOSORT™

Collecting and recycling textile waste is important for protecting the environment. Various European laws are increasingly pushing member states to implement systems for collecting and recycling of textile waste. Achieving circularity in the textile industry is an key step for keeping the environment pollution-free.

TOMRA Sorting is a global leader in sensor-based sorting solutions

To meet this demand TOMRA Sorting has launched AUTOSORT^TM which is the cutting-edge technology designed to transform the textile industry. AUTOSORT^TM is a technology specifically designed for textiles. It is capable of efficiently identifying and separating different types of fibers and textile materials for high-quality recycling.

It can detect different fibers (cotton, polyester, nylon and blended fibers). This accuracy is very important. Because different recycling processes are needed for different types of fibers. This system can also separate textiles based on color and size by using advanced optical sensors and AI, which improves the quality and consistency of recycled materials. This technology continuously improves the accuracy and efficiency of sorting using data patterns.

AUTOSORT^TM provides automatic and highly accurate fiber identification, which is essential for the production of high-quality recycled textiles. It requires no manual labor. It has highly efficient FLYING BEAM™.

Companies that adopt advanced sorting like AUTOSORT^TM will not only comply with EU regulations but also gain a competitive advantage. This technology will reduce operating costs through automation and access financial incentives for green investments.

AUTOSORT^TM technology of TOMRA Sorting is the ideal solution to address these critical challenges. It is the most powerful multifunctional sorting system worldwide.
