Modernization of sorting centres

Why modernize your sorting center?

Adapt to new regulatory requirements: expansion of sorting guidelines, stricter environmental standards, and higher recovery targets.
Respond to evolving waste streams: emergence of new materials and complex flows, integration of SRF or specific streams (C&I waste, flexible plastics, etc.)
Improve sorting performance: increased throughput, reduced reject rate, and greater sorting accuracy through automation.
Enhance safety and working conditions: fire compliance upgrades, improved workstation ergonomics, and operator safety.

Types of sorting centers concerned by revamping

Packing materials – Materials Recovery Facility (MRF)
MSW and C&I sorting centers
Other cases

Packing materials – Materials Recovery Facility (MRF)

Since the nationwide expansion of sorting guidelines, these facilities must now handle a wider variety of packaging materials. Modernization makes it possible to adapt existing lines to absorb these additional volumes without any loss in performance.

MSW and C&I sorting centers

An increasing number of these centers are investing in the addition of SRF/RDF lines to recover more waste and reduce the amount sent to landfill.

Other cases

Processing of new or complex material streams

Targeted improvements to enhance productivity, sorting quality, or automation

Tailor-made solutions, from simple upgrades to complete overhauls

Each modernization project is unique. Aktid supports you in the partial or complete reconfiguration of your installation, according to your industrial and financial objectives.

Our interventions may include:

Adding or replacing equipment (optical sorters, screens, balers, etc.)
Integrating new lines (SRF/RDF, extended sorting, specific material streams)
Completely reconfiguring the process to streamline flows and prevent bottlenecks
Upgrading technology: automation, supervision, predictive maintenance
Optimizing maintenance access and workstation ergonomics
Ensuring safety compliance: fire protection, safety equipment, and more

A comprehensive project approach with Aktid

Each modernization project is managed by a dedicated team that supports you from the initial analysis through to commissioning:

Technical and functional assessment of the existing installation
Feasibility study and definition of the modernization plan
Integration of technical solutions (using our standard or customized ranges)
Site management and coordination of all stakeholders
Support during start-up and training of your teams
Post-intervention follow-up and continuous optimization
