In response to increasing quality requirements and growing environmental awareness, in 2023, Acin metal installed an ultra-modern sorting facility equipped with GREENSORT metal sensor sorter with inductive sorting technology. 

The aim of the investment was to equip the company for future requirements and, at the same time, to make it a role model for Spain recyclers. "We wanted a technology partner who shares our vision and who we can rely on," says Gerard. "GREENSORT offers the best sorting solutions, which is why they dominate the market here. Their products last a long time and are highly precise yet easy to operate. That's exactly what the Spain market needs to fully exploit the potential of recycling."

The GREENSORT metal sensor sorter system lies at the heart of the new stainless steel sorting facility. It uses induction technology to separates metals with high efficiency. Any conductive object passing through the sensor area is detected at a sensitivity of significantly less than 1 mm. This means that impurities in the stainless steel can be reduced to a minimum and pure-grade products can be obtained. "This improved quality not only opens up better sales opportunities on the domestic market, it also makes us more attractive to international customers," explains Joan.
