Tomra Systems - nyheter


I min verden er Tomra Systems et fantastisk, grønt teknologiselskap. Velger å starte denne tråden på forumet for 'Grønne aksjer'.

Har benyttet kursfallet den senere tid til å ta en posisjon i Tomra Systems. Dette fordi jeg er av den oppfatning at man skal lete lenge etter et mer opplagt langsiktig investeringsobjekt. Best mulig kurs er selvsagt å foretrekke, men er ikke så veldig opptatt av kortsiktige bevegelser i aksjekursen. Hensikten med denne trådstarten er primært å poste noen lenker av og til, til nyheter jeg måtte komme over som følge av at jeg er interessert i hva som skjer i og rundt selskapet (*). Bare hos Nordnet er det 7 819 aksjeieiere i Tomra Systems, ifølge megleren. Så selv om det er 'helt stille' rundt selskapet her på forumet, tenker jeg likevel at det kan være et visst 'marked' for litt nytt, en gang i blant.

Mødet med en pantautomat kræver som regel tålmodighed og en grundig håndvask bagefter. Sådan er det ikke længere hos købmand Lars Jensen hos Spar i Valsgaard. Dagligvarebutikken er den første i miles omkreds, der får en topmoderne flaskeautomat.

Fredag blev vindunderet sat i drift. Der er tale om en norskproduceret Tomra R1, og den gør det angiveligt fem gange så hurtigt for kunderne at aflevere returpant.

Glass should stay in Scottish DRS, 8 out of 10 Scots say

Environment and Energy, Collection and Transport, Legislation and Regulation, Scotland

12th May 2023

A new poll, commissioned by the international campaign group Nature 2030, suggests eight out of ten people in Scotland want glass to remain in a deposit return scheme (DRS).

Survation polled 1,009 members of the Scottish public aged 18 and over between 27 April – 3 May 2023.

The survey follows Scotland’s First Minister Humza Yousaf announcing in April that the country’s DRS was delayed to 1 March 2024 rather than August this year.

Over three-quarters of respondents told the survey that glass bottles should also be added to the DRSs in England and Northern Ireland. The schemes planned for Wales and Scotland are already set to include glass. 

According to a previous poll by Nature 2030 in January, there is “strong support” from 75% of Britons to include glass bottles in the government’s proposed DRSs in England & Northern Ireland.

Dominic Dyer, Chair, Nature 2030, commented: “It’s clear that the British population want to see glass included in the four nation’s DRS plans and the planet needs it.

“Until now, Scotland has been an outlier within the UK, a model to replicate. The delay brings cause for concern that Scotland will be dragged back into an English model of DRS that fails to protect nature and fails to satisfy the demands of the public.

“Scotland must continue to lead the way on recycling.”

Hver eneste bedrift må sette seg mål som forteller om vi beveger oss i riktig retning

Skal planeten fortsatt være levelig og menneskene ha liv som er verdt å leve, må hver eneste bedrift sette mål som forteller om vi beveger oss lønnsomt i riktig retning.

Geir Stene, seniorkonsulent og sertifisert innovasjonsleder i Miles

15. mai 2023 - 13:46

Klimaendringer, krig og en verdensøkonomi i ulage. Tre mega-trender som får konsekvenser for oss alle. Er det like greit å stikke hodet i sanden og håpe at all usikkerheten blåser over? Eller tvinger de store endringene bedriftseiere og bedriftsledere til å tenke nytt om hvordan de skal drive virksomhet og skape forretning? Og må også våre politikere etter hvert ta inn over seg at forutsetningene for å sikre vår felles velferd i morgen ikke er de samme som de var i går? Næringslivsledere etterspør faktisk politisk styring innenfor de enorme utfordringene vi står overfor.

Tomra klarte det

I kriser er det naturlige å trekke seg tilbake og forsøke å begrense skade snarest mulig. Men alle vet at dersom man er på et skip ute i storm, er det verste man kan gjøre å søke mot kysten. Mega-trendene utfordrer oss alle til å tenke og handle som en erfaren sjøkaptein. Men hva pokker gjør vi ute på «havet»?

Mens tomgods fra drikkevarer skaper søppelberg verden over, har Tomra lykkes med å få oss nordmenn til å oppsøke panteautomatene og resirkulere 97 prosent. Tomra eksporterer også
konseptene ut i verden.

Importance of the Tallebung Tin Project to the renewable energy market

Critical Raw Materials
17th May 2023

Tin is a valuable and steadfast component in a range of applications. Sky Metals tells us how the company is answering the demands of the renewable energy market through its Tallebung Tin Project.

Sky Metals Limited (ASX: SKY) is an ASX-listed public company focused on developing and exploring mineral resources in Australia. The company’s project portfolio offers important exposure to the tin market.

Tin is a vital component in the manufacturing of new, renewable energy applications and is used predominantly for soldering. As such, prices and demand for this versatile metal are increasing, leading to challenges in supply and the need to diversify sources from unstable regions.
...
An ever-growing market

Despite underinvestment in tin exploration over the past 30 years, the market has recently seen rapid price growth due to soaring demand for modern applications integral to the green energy transition. According to the Rio Tinto Ventures Group, tin is set to be the ‘metal most impacted by future technologies.’

The majority of the tin supply currently comes from China and Indonesia. Australia currently supplies around 2-3%, only a tiny fraction of the global supply.
...
Oliver Davies, CEO of Sky Metals Limited, commented: “This maiden MRE and exploration target demonstrate the large scale of the tin mineralisation at Tallebung. This, in combination with the more than tripling of grade achieved with the upfront TOMRA XRT ore sorting, shows what an excellent opportunity SKY is developing at Tallebung. SKY has also shown that tin mineralisation is very amenable to simple and cost-effective gravity concentration to a saleable +60% tin concentrate. It is exciting to consider that this resource and exploration target remain open along strike and down dip. This Maiden Mineral Resource Estimate is only limited by the drilling completed so far. SKY will aim to grow this resource even further with additional drilling over the coming months.”

TOMRA ore sorting can be applied to this ore and has shown that the grade can be at least tripled to over 0.5% tin, with over 98% recovery of tin. Estimates are open along strike and down dip showing strong potential for significant increases in this maiden resource estimate, with further drilling at Tallebung.

Mining history of the Tallebung tin mining field

The project is centred on the historic Tallebung tin field, where numerous phases of mining activity have occurred over more than 100 years since its discovery in the 1890s. This activity targeted the high-grade quartz lodes and the alluvial/colluvial material with an estimated historical production of 3,350 tonnes of tin concentrate. SKY is now targeting the bulk tonnage tin mineralisation underlying these historic mining areas.

Due to past mining activities at Tallebung, much of the costly infrastructure required for a mining operation is already in place. This includes powerlines, all-weather haul roads to and within the site and an established water supply. Combined, these will provide a solid start to future mining operations.

Sustainability

SKY aims to be an industry leader in ethical and sustainable mining practices. The Tallebung tin mineralisation is hosted in quartz-cassiterite veining within a predominately homogeneous sequence of less than 1m thick interbeds of sand and siltstones, which have formed into tight isoclinal folds. Within veining at Tallebung, the tin mineralisation occurs as cassiterite and is present as significant, often 5-10mm wide ‘nuggets'.

The saleable tin concentrate can easily be produced from the Tallebung ore, given the nuggety cassiterite host of the tin mineralisation. The coarse liberation size of the cassiterite means that it does not require large amounts of energy to crush and grind. TOMRA ore sorting technology and gravity concentration methods work exceptionally well to save significant amounts of power and water in the processing plant.

The TOMRA ore sorting process at Tallebung requires no water or chemicals and reduces the total mass for further processing by at least 60-70%. In addition, this technology significantly reduces water use by a similar 60-70% during processing. Additional work is planned to use the rejected 60-70% of the mass from the ore sorting as barren waste material for sheeting roads and other construction projects.

In addition to the ore sorting benefits, the gravity processing method to concentrate the tin at Tallebung only uses water recycled through the plant. This further reduces water requirements and avoids using large quantities of chemicals required by other tin concentration processing methods.

The uniquely simple and cost-effective processing in Tallebung makes it a likely leader in producing sustainable tin

How modern sorting, grading and packing solutions are making tomato packhouses more competitive

By Staff Reporter
May 19, 2023
...
For many years now, the standard-setter in optical sorting and grading technologies for the food industry has been TOMRA Food. In the last five years, TOMRA has broadened its offering by acquiring two innovative New Zealand-based companies, BBC Technologies and Compac, so it is now the leading provider of integrated post-harvest-to-pack solutions. These take care of everything from tipping the fruit onto the line to packing it at the other end, and are well-suited to tomatoes. Because these solutions are modular and scalable, they can be tailored to businesses of all sizes. And because of TOMRA’s control software, they can be switched from one tomato variety to another with unrivaled ease and speed.

Skottene sliter som kjent med å komme i gang med sitt pantesystem. Ny planlagt oppstartdato er nå altså 1.mars 2024, men sterke krefter, ikke minst sør for grensen, ønsker ytterligere utsettelse til 2025 da det er bestemt at også resten av UK (England, Wales og Nord-Irland) skal starte opp sitt pantesystem. Man kan bare følge med og se hva som skjer.

At Tomra satser hardt i UK og Irland, er det imidlertid ingen tvil om. Og for Tomras del innebærer nok ikke utsettelse(r) i Skottland at Tomra går glipp av inntekter, men snarere at inntekter eventuelt skyves frem i tid. Her et relativt dyptpløyende intervju med Tomras nyansatte sjef i Collection Solutions UK og Irland, Ryan Buzzell (se mer om Buzzells bakgrunn i forrige innlegg her på tråden). I intervjuet forteller Buzzell, blant mye annet, at Tomra allerede har inngått partnerskap med supermarkedkjeder som Aldi, Lidl m.fl. og allerede har installert nesten 100 pantemaskiner hos disse.

TOMRA, AMARSUL's key ally towards sustainability

The relationship between TOMRA and AMARSUL is well established and their level of cooperation is excellent with a view to optimizing their production and achieving recycling targets.

24-05-2023

Portugal is a very advanced country in terms of regulations governing waste management, although many of the plants still have a lot of work to do. But in the Lisbon region we find an oasis: the Portuguese company AMARSUL , which with 26 years of history is today responsible for the treatment and recovery of urban waste in the nine municipalities of the Setúbal peninsula. In 2022, the company treated 461,000 tons of waste, having recovered 45,000 tons of recyclables.

AMARSUL has been working side by side with the TOMRA team since 2009 , which has allowed it to have one of the most advanced processes in the country. Today it has 8 AUTOSORT® equipment, two of them with SHARP EYETM technology. The new equipment was installed in 2019 at its Palmela Urban Waste Mechanical Treatment Plant, which has a capacity of about 94,000 tons/year of waste, and in 2020 at its Seixal Automatic Packaging Sorting Plant , which It has a treatment capacity of 12 thousand tons/year. 
...
The success of this solution is assured. And as Ana Teresa Henriques concludes: “The incorporation of the latest TOMRA technology helps us comply with the legislation, optimize processes and obtain greater efficiency. In addition to identifying, in real time, the needs. Because, even if we work hard and in the right way, the results may not take the leap we need. Hence the improvement in procedures, technologies and equipment. With TOMRA everything has been very easy, since they have accompanied us in all stages of the process, making available to us a professional local technical team that is at our disposal to answer any questions. In short, our relationship with TOMRA has always been a win-win, because they have developed new solutions and presented alternatives, showing themselves as an exceptional and cooperative partner to achieve common goals.”

Så sent som 20.april kunne man lese at Tomra Mining hadde gjort litt av et kupp i Western Australia ettersom Tomras teknologi ble valgt til å rigge verdens største sorteringsanlegg for lithium (se innlegg 20.04.2023 kl 14:16 her på tråden om dette). Tomra har ikke for vane å gå i detaljer om enkeltkontrakter, men akkurat denne kontrakten benyttet CEO Tove Andersen anledningen til å fremheve under Q1 2023 presentasjonen selv om den altså først ble offentliggjort nå i Q2.

Nå åpner Tomra Mining ny filial med testsenter i nettopp Western Australia. Nærmere bestemt i Perth.

TOMRA Mining opens new Perth office

ALEXANDRA EASTWOOD 14 hours ago

TOMRA Mining has invested in its operations in Australia to meet the rising demand for sensor-based sorting and be close to customers on the West Coast by opening a second office in Perth.

The company has also appointed Jordan Rutledge as new sales manager based at the new location, and has extended its local support and service team. The company also supports its Australian customers with its well-established office and test centre in Sydney.

TOMRA Mining has a well-established presence in Australia with installations operating in a variety of applications including lithium, industrial minerals, polymetallics and gemstones.

It has operated  in the country since the 1990s when Ultrasort entered the market, before being acquired by TOMRA in 2009. Over the years, its business has grown in response to the evolution in the industry.

“The diamond, lithium, tin, tungsten, battery and strategic minerals sectors, as well as other progressive sectors that are open to new technology, have driven sensor-based sorting into the main mining process flow and design,” TOMRA technical manager Gavin Rech said.

“The focus on Environmental, Social and Governance (ESG) and on reducing energy consumption has further contributed to this trend.”

Rutledge brings to the team her extensive experience and know-how. Having completed degrees in materials and metallurgical engineering from the Colorado School of Mines, as well as programs in Europe and China, she has spent her career in the mining industry focusing on mineral processing.

Rutledge has worked on projects in North and South America, Asia, Europe, Africa and Australia. In the last four years, she has focused on North American projects for TOMRA Mining.

“Western Australia is the heart of the mining industry in Australia, and with the uptake of sensor-based sorting in the sector we are seeing a fast-growing demand for our technology,” Rutledge said.

“We have a large number of projects and investment going into sensor-based sorting, and we are gearing up for many more opportunities, particularly in the battery metals space, with the unique solutions that we can provide lithium mining operations. With the new office in Perth, we can be on the ground and visiting our customers on the West Coast very quickly, as they are just a short drive or flight away.”

TOMRA Mining has also set up a dedicated team based at the new Perth office.

Sales has been joined by project coordinator Gianni Mazzella, who runs TOMRA Mining large-scale projects. Also on the team is Adriaan Olivier, service and project manager APAC, who has been supporting TOMRA customers in South Africa and Sydney for the past five years, as well as two service engineers – with two more to come later in the year.

The team will be working closely with the Sydney office and Test Center, with the backing of TOMRA’s global support structure.

“We identified a need to invest further in all the opportunities on the West Coast of Australia and to be closer to our customers in the area. This will facilitate the kind of close collaboration that is the hallmark of TOMRA Mining,” Rutledge said.

Pant Skottland.


Litt sånn breaking news dette i løpet av pinsen! For nå har skottene omsider endelig fått nødvendig tillatelse og klarsignal fra Westminster til å starte opp sitt pantesystem 1.mars 2024, og slipper således å vente med oppstart til 2025 da resten av UK starter opp.

Skottene misliker imidlertid at de ikke får lov til å inkludere glassflasker som planlagt. Primært fordi glassflasker ikke er med i pantesystemet for resten av UK som skal starte opp i 2025. Regjeringen i London ønsker et samkjørt pantesystem for hele UK. Noe som trolig betyr at heller ikke Wales, som som skottene har vedtatt å inkludere glassflasker i pantesystemet, får lov til å inkludere glass.

Som jeg antydet for en stund siden, i forbindelse med vedtaket om utsettelse av oppstart i Skottland fra august i år til 1.mars 2024, var feelingen at skottenes pantesystem på mange måter kommer til å fungere som 'en pilot' for pantesystemet i hele UK. Og slik ser det nå altså ut til å bli. I seg selv helt sikkert gunstig med henblikk på mest mulig problemfri oppstart i England, Wales og Nord-Irland i 2025.

Tomra Systems, Carbios and Co: "Plastic pollution is a ticking time bomb"

Today, 07:42 ‧ Michel Doepke

UN negotiations for an international plastics deal have started in Paris with urgent calls for action. "Plastic pollution is everywhere. It knows no borders and poses a global threat to the environment and our health," said the chairman of the International Negotiating Committee, Gustavo Meza-Cuadra Velásquez, on Monday in Paris.

"The challenge is huge, we all know that here, but it's not insurmountable." The problem can only be solved together. A fair and effective, legally binding agreement is needed that guarantees that garbage is only the last resort.

United Nations member states aim to end plastic pollution by 2040. The Paris meeting is the second round of intergovernmental negotiations for such a global agreement. A total of five rounds of negotiations are planned up to 2024.

UN member states as well as non-governmental organisations, scientists and trade unions will take part in the meeting in Paris. Discussions are expected to continue until Friday. Federal Environment Minister Steffi Lemke (Greens) from Germany was in Paris last week for talks to prepare the negotiations.

Chairman Velásquez warned at the beginning: "Our countries, our soil, our water, our air and even our bodies are affected by plastic." French President Emmanuel Macron said in a video message: "Plastic pollution is a ticking time bomb." If we don't act, plastic waste will triple by 2060. You have to change production and consumption and create innovation. Plastic production must decrease, recycling quotas should increase, he demanded. "In the future, all plastic on the market must be fully recyclable."

Focus on recycling

In order to contain the plastic problem, innovative recycling solutions are needed. Tomra Systems, for example, has already established itself on the market - the company is considered the world market leader for reverse vending machines. But smaller companies also want to scale their approaches. Interesting in this context is the French company Carbios , which uses enzymes to try to decompose various types of plastic. The chemical recycler Agilyx is no less exciting .

Global plastic pollution remains a major problem - but it also offers interesting investment opportunities for investors. Among the individual investments, DER AKTIONÄR currently has the titles Tomra, Carbios and Agilyx on the list of recommendations. If you want to cover the topic broadly, you can access the index certificate with the WKN DA0AB3 on the Zero Plastic Index. More information is available here.

Dagens melding fra Tomra medfører at jeg ser meg pent 'nødt' til å poste meldingen som tilsvar til mitt eget innlegg fra i går kveld. Flott nyhet!

Dette taler for seg selv, og jeg er ikke et sekund i tvil om at Tomra, som global markedsleder innen sorteringsteknologi, ligger helt i front når det gjelder innsikt i hvilken retning storpolitikken peker angående plastavfall og resirkulering. Det være seg innen EU og ellers på kloden.

Konstruksjonen av dette anlegget i Norge er en oppfølger til Tomras pågående arbeid med bygging av et lignende sorteringsanlegg i Tyslland som skal settes i drift i 2024.

TOMRA: TOMRA and Plastretur Sign Joint Venture to Create Norway's First Dedicated Sorting Plant to Enable Circularity of Plastic Packaging

TOMRA has signed an agreement with Plastretur AS, the Norwegian producer responsibility organization responsible for recycling plastic packaging, to create a plastic packaging sorting plant located in Norway. TOMRA will invest 32 MEUR through a joint venture where TOMRA will hold a 65% ownership stake and Plastretur AS will hold a 35% ownership stake.

The strategic investment is part of TOMRA's Feedstock business venture, which seeks to close the gap in plastic recycling by using TOMRA's core knowledge and technology. There is a strong and growing demand for high-quality plastic fractions out of plastic waste, which is typically lost to incineration and landfill today. The plant will accept municipal-sourced separated and mechanically recovered plastics from mixed waste. It will be sorted into high -quality fractions ready to be used in new packaging and other high-quality products.

Plastretur AS will be responsible for sourcing plastic packaging waste as input while TOMRA will be responsible for grading the recovered plastic fractions based on type, and for selling the output material. The new plant will be built near Oslo in Holtskogen Næringspark, Østfold, Norway with a total sorting capacity of 90,000 tons of plastics per year.

Tomra Systems: Exciting deal - get in now?

Today, 15:11 ‧ Michel Doepke

Increasing recycling rates mean that companies are looking for a way into the circular economy. A clear winner of this increasing development is undoubtedly Tomra Systems. The Norwegians now want to contribute their know-how to an exciting joint venture in their Scandinavian homeland.

Together with Plastretur, Tomra Systems wants to set up a sorting plant for plastic packaging. The mechanical engineering company, which is best known for its deposit return machines, will control the majority of the joint venture with 65 percent. Cost point: 32 million euros. The remaining part goes to Plastretur.

The strategic investment is part of Tomra's Feedstock Business Venture, which aims to bridge the plastics recycling gap by leveraging Tomra's core knowledge and technology.

The two companies want to build the plant near Oslo and have it fully operational in the first quarter of 2025. Tomra Systems is targeting a 15 to 20 percent return on investment in the sorting facility, which is expected to have a plastic capacity of 90,000 tons per year.

Buy recommendation confirmed

Meanwhile, after Thursday's report, Jyske Bank reiterated its buy recommendation for Tomra Systems' stock. Analyst Henrik Hallengreen Laustsen puts the fair value at a whopping 235 Norwegian kroner (equivalent to 19.66 euros).

Tomra Systems is one of the big winners from higher recycling rates and the ambition of many countries and corporations to embark on the path towards circular economy. Even if there is no need to enter from a technical point of view, the paper remains promising in the long term. Traders are waiting for a sustained breakout above the 200-day moving average.

LOKALE NYHETER TOMRA PLASTRETUR AS PLASTSORTERING

Har fått med stor aktør på laget – starter bygging på Holtskogen i juni

Av Per Uno Blørstad
Publisert: 01.06.23 05:00

Plastretur AS går sammen med det børsnoterte teknologiselskapet Tomra ASA om å eie og drive det nye finsorteringsanlegg for plastemballasje på Holtskogen.

– Dette er starten på en ny æra med utvikling av nye sirkulære løsninger og forretningsmodeller for plast i Norge. Når vi setter spaden i jorda, realiserer vi et nasjonalt grønt skifte, sier Bjarte E. Grostøl som er initiativtaker til sorteringsanlegget i Holtskogen og styreleder i Plastretur.

– Hvorfor har dere gått sammen med Tomra?

– Tomra er kanskje mest kjent for flaskepantautomater i Norge, men internasjonalt er Tomra mest kjent for infrarøde sorteringsmaskiner. Plastretur er i utgangspunktet ikke et sorteringsselskap. Vår ekspertise ligger mer på innsamlingssiden. Den kunnskapsmessige basen for å drive et sorteringsanlegg ligger bedre hos Tomra. Derfor valgte vi å gå i kompaniskap med Tomra som er verdensledende på sorteringsprosesser og sorteringsmaskiner. De skal står for driften, vi står for å få varene inn i anlegget, sier Bjarte E. Grostøl, initiativtaker til sorteringsanlegget på Holtskogen og styreleder i Plastretur.

Why investors find it more difficult to deal with the topic of biodiversity than with climate change investments

Energy Recovery, Valmont, Oxford Nanopore and Tomra are early examples of biodiversity investments   

AEGON ASSET MANAGEMENT | 05/31/2023 1:47 p.m

Biodiversity represents an extremely valuable tool to analyze ESG-driven investments. According to Miranda Beacham, Head of ESG - Equity and Multi-Asset at Aegon Asset Management, biodiversity is one side of the green coin and climate change is the other.

Beacham concludes, “The positive investment impact of such activity is easy to see. If we talk about long-term, fundamental opportunities that can transcend uncertainty, then this is a theme that clearly has the potential for multi-decade growth as we need to find ways to better manage the world's most valuable resources.”

Tomra: Autosort Pulse with dynamic LIBS technology

Tomra Recycling Sorting has introduced a new sorting machine with dynamic Laser-Induced Breakdown Spectroscopy (LIBS).

06/01/2023

Due to its patented LIBS technology, the machine delivers first-class performance in the separation of aluminum scrap. A particular focus is the sorting of scrap from alloy classes 5xxx and 6xxx. 3D object recognition identifies any object regardless of size and surface, while multiple single-point scans enable accurate detection of materials in any condition. Even overlapping and adjacent objects can be precisely separated using the artificial intelligence-based object separation function, thus achieving maximum yields.

Conventional sorting machines such as X-ray Fluorescence (XRF) or standard LIBS technologies have limited ability to achieve industry-level throughputs when sorting aluminum alloys. Several material tests have shown that purities of more than 95% can be achieved with Autosort Pulse.

With a bulk feeder system and a processing capacity of 3 to 7 tons per hour, plant operators can produce large volumes of aluminum scrap that meet industry standards across many applications. Relatively compact in design, the sorting system combines a number of advanced technologies and a conveyor belt so that it can be easily integrated into systems and no additional material conveying and separation equipment needs to be installed.

With Tomra Insight, a cloud-based data platform that is available as an additional feature for Autosort Pulse, processes can be monitored in near real time and the sorting process can be optimized using the data obtained. The data can be called up anywhere and at any time, so that users can identify operational disruptions and maintenance requirements at an early stage and thus have full control over the performance of the sorting system.
