Glass Recycling

REDWAVE solutions for glass processing are designed to maintain a uniform and evenly distributed material flow in and through the system in order to keep glass loss to a minimum - it's the details that matter. For this reason, REDWAVE selects the best available systems for the pre-treatment of the glass stream and procures them from reliable subcontractors. This ensures that the input material is optimally prepared for the sorting process using sensor-based REDWAVE sorting machines. REDWAVE sorting machines in combination with the REDWAVE mate software offer our customers a monitoring system in the plant that improves plant productivity in the long term. REDWAVE is your reliable partner as general contractor and takes responsibility for the fulfilment of the agreed performance guarantees from renovation all the way to new construction. Glass recycling and the entire glass industry have been inspiring REDWAVE for decades!

Up to now, dark and thick glasses could not be differentiated from opaque interfering substances such as ceramics due to the low transmission values, and high-quality glass ended up being rejected. Sorting dark glass pieces significantly reduces glass loss and increases the productivity of every system.
