Tomra Systems - nyheter
Slik jeg ser det, er Tomra Systems et fantastisk, grønt teknologiselskap. Globalt ledende og perfekt rigget for å betjene sterkt økende etterspørsel innen alle selskapets forretningsområder, i tiår fremover. 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.

BREAKING NEWS!!
Regner jo med at Tomra vil melde om dette. Isåfall er jeg litt stolt over å være ute med nyheten før selskapet selv (nå som det allerede er tidlig onsdag formiddag 'down under').
Og nyheten den er at TOMRA Cleanaway Tasmania har blitt tildelt rollen som operatør av pantesystemet i Australias minste delstat Tasmania som har knapt 600 000 innbyggere. Avtalen innebærer at alle pantemaskiner i Tasmanias pantesystem vil være pantemaskiner produsert av Tomra.
Pantesystemet er planlagt å gå live midt i 2025.
Progress made on state’s Recycle Rewards
24 September 2024
Nick Duigan, Minister for Parks and Environment
Tasmania’s Recycle Rewards container refund scheme is one step closer with an exciting milestone achieved today ahead of the scheme’s commencement mid-next year.
Minister for Parks and Environment, Nick Duigan, congratulated TasRecycle Limited, announced as Scheme Coordinator, and TOMRA Cleanaway Tasmania, named as Network Operator.
...
CEO of TOMRA Cleanaway James Dorney said it is exciting that Tasmania will soon be the final piece of the container refund scheme puzzle in Australia, with all states and territories legislating extended producer responsibility for single-use drink containers.
“We are extremely proud to be playing such a large part in this important shift towards a cleaner environment and a more sustainable future and we are looking forward to helping deliver an exceptional outcome for the people of Tasmania,” Mr Dorney said.

Tasmania’s long-awaited container refund scheme to launch in mid-2025
Pulse Tasmania
September 25, 2024 - 6:04am
Tasmania’s long-awaited ‘Recycle Rewards’ container refund scheme is now “one step closer” following the appointment of key partners.
TasRecycle Limited has been named the scheme coordinator and TOMRA Cleanaway Tasmania the network operator.
Set to launch mid-next year, the scheme will offer a 10c refund for every eligible beverage container returned to designated refund points across the state.
Environment Minister Nick Duigan said the initiative is expected to reduce litter and double recycling rates for eligible containers.
“With beverage containers making up to 45% of Tasmania’s litter, it is estimated Recycle Rewards will reduce this by almost 50% … reducing waste going into landfill and sustaining the environment for future generations,” he said.
It has been almost five years since the scheme was first announced.

Accelerating Circularity and partners make multi-fiber recycling commitment
Jennifer Marks //Editor in Chief//September 26, 2024
New York – Joined by a raft of textiles retailers and suppliers, Accelerating Circularity has set a specific tonnage target for recycling textiles.
The NGO and its partners across the U.S. and Europe pledged to recycle 325 tons of used textiles, including 150 tons of cotton, 100 tons of polyester, and 75 tons of other fibers. The official Commitment to Action was made at the Clinton Global Initiative (CGI) 2024 Annual Meeting earlier this week.

Prosessen mot innføring av pantesystem på Filippinene fortsetter. Med drahjelp fra norske myndigheter. Tomra er selvfølgelig 'med på laget'.
Siktemålet er at første pilot skal være oppe og gå i 2025.
Filippinene har ca. 115 millioner innbyggere, og det sier seg selv at potensialet er enormt etterhvert som de folkerike nasjonene i Sørøst-Asia for alvor kommer på banen når det gjelder sirkulær økonomi.

Deposit return system set to accelerate PH circularity
BY Manila Bulletin
Sep 30, 2024 10:49 AM
The Royal Norwegian Embassy in Manila, in collaboration with the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR), Deutsche Gesellschaft für Internationale Zusammenarbeit (GIZ), and World Wildlife Fund (WWF), hosted a workshop on Sept. 24, 2024, to promote the inception of the Deposit Return System (DRS) as a complimenting mechanism for Extended Producers Responsibility (EPR) in the Philippines at Seda Hotel in Quezon City.
The workshop follows the discussions last year, in line with the goal of the Philippines to achieve its target of 80 percent plastic waste recovery by 2028. The DRS can boost the circular economy of the country, where consumers can refund deposits from plastic products upon the return of their packaging at an accessible collection point.
...
“The Deposit Return System is deeply rooted in Norwegian society,” said Norwegian Ambassador to the Philippines Christian Halaas Lyster highlighting the importance of DRS to the Norwegian circular economy and its development. “Norway is one of the first countries to have set and implemented the DRS and its success resulted in a very impressive return rate of 92.8 percent of plastic bottles throughout the country today. We are confident that the introduction of closed-loop solutions would be an effective response to the waste challenges of the Philippines” he added.
DENR Undersecretary Atty. Analiza Teh shared the department’s drive to collaborate with civil society partners in creating a sustainable DRS program, and eventually scale it up.
...
TOMRA Vice President Public Affairs, System Design in Asia Lovish Ahuja shared that “Philippines government’s decision to roll out EPR Act of 2022 is testimony of its commitment to resolving the gauntlet of plastic pollution. This will go a long way in promoting circularity into action and contribute towards larger goals of Sustainable Development including Climate Change. The DRS is an established and potent tool in mitigating the menace of plastic containers (e.g. PET, and other beverage packaging types) stemming from beverage applications. DRS is known for achieving the highest collection for beverage containers (PET, metal cans, glass, and liquid paper board) compared to any other EPR scheme, and also acts as a catalyst for promoting the recycling sector by generating clean feedstock in a required volume. For a country like the Philippines, with thousands of islands, the economy of scale is a pivotal element for promotion/feasibility of the recycling sector, and this is where DRS will come in handy with proven highest collection rate.”
The Norwegian Embassy in Manila funds the second phase of the feasibility study for the DRS program with support from WWF. The project is setting the target for pilot project approval and implementation for the first DRS pilot site by 2025.

Haulaway boosts recovery rates with new recycling plant.
1st October 2024
Recycling - Company & Industry News
Established in 1991, Haulaway Limited has grown into a thriving third-generation family business based in Hailsham, East Sussex. Led by owner Colin Holloway, his wife Julie, their three children—Lisa (Office Manager), Sam (Operations Manager), Cara (Head of HR) and Steve Walton (Business development Director)—the company has flourished with the support of nearly 50 dedicated staff members.
From humble beginnings with just two skip lorries, Haulaway has expanded its fleet to 21 vehicles, including skip lorries, 8-wheel tippers, a grab lorry, and a variety of rolonof and articulated vehicles. The company offers an array of services beyond skip hire, including tipper and grab hire, roll on roll off hire, bulk haulage, cardboard collection, trade waste disposal and a plastic recycling plant.
As Haulaway continues to grow, so does the volume of recyclable material they handle. This increase necessitated the installation of a new recycling plant to process their Dry Mixed Recycling (DMR) stream. After an extensive tender process, Haulaway selected Blue Machinery (Southern) to install the cutting-edge recycling plant at their Polegate Distribution Facility. Blue Southern assembled some of the world’s leading manufacturers including Westeria, Tomra, BRT Hartner, and M&J to create a state-of-the-art system.
...
The remaining 3D material proceeds to a second manual picking station where 3D carboard and various grades of plastic are recovered. Concurrently, the 2D material from the ballistic separator is directed to the first Tomra 2800 optical sorter, which removes film from the material. The remaining material then passes through a second Tomra optical sorter which takes the OCC leaving a mixed paper product as the drop fraction.
The plant has been cleverly reverse engineered meaning that optical sorters can easily be added to the 3D line in the future.
Capable of processing up to 10 tons per hour, the new plant became operational in March, and Haulaway is already seeing significant benefits. Sam Holloway, Operations Manager, commented, "The plant has been running smoothly for a few months now and has significantly increased our material recovery rates from our DMR waste stream."

“These results are particularly significant given that a tin grade of 0.50% is equivalent to over 1.5% copper, highlighting the value in these intercepts — that is before beneficiation via TOMRA ore sorting, which has been demonstrated to effectively multiply the tin grade across the entire deposit,” Davies says.

Blue Southern assembled some of the world’s leading manufacturers including Westeria, Tomra, BRT Hartner, and M&J to create a state-of-the-art system.
...
The remaining 3D material proceeds to a second manual picking station where 3D carboard and various grades of plastic are recovered. Concurrently, the 2D material from the ballistic separator is directed to the first Tomra 2800 optical sorter, which removes film from the material. The remaining material then passes through a second Tomra optical sorter which takes the OCC leaving a mixed paper product as the drop fraction.
The plant has been cleverly reverse engineered meaning that optical sorters can easily be added to the 3D line in the future.
Capable of processing up to 10 tons per hour, the new plant became operational in March, and Haulaway is already seeing significant benefits. Sam Holloway, Operations Manager, commented, "The plant has been running smoothly for a few months now and has significantly increased our material recovery rates from our DMR waste stream."

“These results are particularly significant given that a tin grade of 0.50% is equivalent to over 1.5% copper, highlighting the value in these intercepts — that is before beneficiation via TOMRA ore sorting, which has been demonstrated to effectively multiply the tin grade across the entire deposit,” Davies says.

TOMRA Collection
Litt sånn breaking news dette, for mon tro om det ikke er en potensiell 'game changer' innen panting Tomra slipper til markedet i dag? Nye markeder en ting, men følelsen er helt klart at TOMRA R2 også har potensial til å generere solid vekst i allerede eksisterende markeder gjennom at pantesteder velger å oppgradere pantetilbudet til sine kundegrupper.
TOMRA introduces a brand new user experience for convenience and community in drink container recycling
TOMRA R2 reverse vending machine launches with Digital Vouchers and expanded charity donation
04 Oct 2024
Global reverse vending leader TOMRA Collection today unleashed the highly-anticipated TOMRA R2, which enables even smaller stores to offer the convenience of pouring 100+ empty drink containers for recycling into a reverse vending machine (RVM) in one go. Debuting with it are two developments in deposit refund payouts, with digital vouchers direct to a user’s mobile browser and more options to donate to charity.
Now emerging from market testing, the TOMRA R2 RVM is the next generation in multi-feed returns (where consumers pour in bags of multiple drink containers at once), building on the success of TOMRA R1. While TOMRA R1 is designed for retailers with high volumes, TOMRA R2’s smaller physical footprint fits a wider range of stores. TOMRA R2 was tested in stores in Germany, Sweden, Norway, Finland, Denmark and the Netherlands.
TOMRA R2 seeks to “rethink recycling” and disrupt traditional reverse vending design. The most visible difference is the minimalist design, with a wall-mounted and compact unit facing the consumer, made to be more stylish, discreet, and accessible in the store environment. It also makes the most of screen to give more visual guidance and better user flow to make the process more intuitive for end users, and provide more features for user accessibility.
TOMRA R2 is compatible with TOMRA backroom storage solutions (like TOMRA MultiPac 2, EasyPac 1 & 2 and RollPac), allowing retailers to upgrade their reverse vending front-end without investing in new backroom equipment. Access for service and cleaning is in the backroom rather than the front, consumer-facing side – saving staff time and effort and reducing disturbance on the retail floor.

Denmark's reusable packaging scheme achieves 85 per cent return rate
By Beth Jones | 8 October 2024 |
ReuSe Vanguard Project expands with Danish NGO Plastic Change, highlighting successful city-level implementation of reusable packaging systems
The ReuSe Vanguard Project (RSVP), which promotes reuse systems to address Europe’s packaging waste crisis, has announced its latest partnership with Danish NGO Plastic Change.
Based in Aarhus, Plastic Change joins a number of other partners including Rezero (Barcelona), Deutsche Umwelthilfe (Berlin), Fair Resource Foundation (Ghent), Enviu (Rotterdam), and Réseau Vrac et Réemploi (Paris) to co-create a shared model of reusable takeaway packaging.
Discussing the collaboration, Nathan Dufour, Reuse Systems Manager and Leader of the RSVP at Zero Waste Europe, said: “With Plastic Change joining RSVP, we have a great add-on to prove that cities across Europe, also in Denmark, can lead the way in replacing single-use waste with sustainable, reusable systems—making real change happen where it matters most.
“Our research shows that switching to these systems may reduce greenhouse gas emissions by as much as 54% in Aarhus, and reduce our material consumption overall. By showcasing this success, we aim to inspire other cities across Europe to adopt similar initiatives, driving a collective movement towards a zero-waste future.”
Since its inception in January 2024, Plastic Change has been monitoring the environmental and economic benefits of the Rotake Reusable Project in Aarhus.
The reusable takeaway system offers customers reusable cups for a five-doner deposit (), which is refundable when the cup is returned to one of 30 Reverse Vending Machines (RVMs) situated in the city. The project involved 57 partner establishments, including cafes, bars, pubs, restaurants, and street food markets.
In less than eight months, Plastic Change found that the RVMs reached over 500,000 cups’ returns, for an 85 per cent overall return rate. Further municipal waste sampling of 2,000 kg found fewer than 10 reusable cups.
A survey conducted by Plastic Change found that 92 per cent of Danish people would be willing to return packaging in a reuse system.
Louise Lerche-Gredal, Managing Director of Plastic Change, commented: “Scalable reuse systems are crucial for a green transition away from our single-use and takeaway culture, but many cities are hesitant to challenge the status quo.
“With Plastic Change as a partner in the ReuSe Vanguard Project, city authorities gain valuable insights from Denmark into how to build an effective reuse system at the city level, from consumer behaviour and pricing to the undeniable environmental benefits. Our hope is to push the agenda forward across Europe.”
Each European generates an average of 190 kg of packaging waste annually, and in light of the EU’s Packaging and Packaging Waste Regulations (PPWR) which mandate a 15 per cent reduction in packaging waste by 2040, Aarhus’ reuse system demonstrates potential solutions to waste reduction

Tomra Food strengthens AI technology offering and highlights Valencia HQ
October 09 , 2024
TOMRA Food used the highly-anticipated 25th Fruit Attraction event in Madrid to unveil its renewed investment and support for the global fruit industry. With a new headquarters in Valencia and the chance to take a sneak peek at the soon-to-be-released LUCAi application for citrus fruits, plus the TOMRA 5A, our bulk sorting solution for whole products like potatoes, carrots and peppers.
“The food sector is experiencing continuous growth, driven by clear factors such as demographics. In particular, the fruit and vegetable sector has seen a significant surge recently. Market players have had to face new challenges to deliver quality without sacrificing speed. This is largely due to increased awareness among younger generations about the importance of healthy eating, a trend that older generations are also adopting, along with the instant gratification consumers now expect from online shopping,” said David del Castillo, Regional Sales Director for Southern Europe.
“The citrus industry clearly needs more efficient and user-friendly sorting systems. Given the wide variety of citrus fruits – oranges, mandarins, lemons, clementines, limes, grapefruits – and the numerous varieties within each type, LUCAi™ Citrus will play a pivotal role. While it has required substantial effort from TOMRA, we are now in the final stages and will soon demonstrate the remarkable results we can achieve. We are confident this will be a game changer in the market and redefine the way those looking to stay competitive will work,” David del Castillo said.
Fruit Attraction attendees among first to experience LUCAi™ for citrus
The new LUCAi™ citrus application will integrate TOMRA’s latest advancements in AI technology based on Deep Learning. Developed by a team of leading scientists, engineers, researchers, and industry experts, LUCAi™ uses pre-trained models to teach computers how to process data, including complex image patterns to achieve unprecedented sorting accuracy across an expanding range of fruits. It follows several pioneering launches. In 2018, TOMRA Food launched LUCAi for blueberries on the KATO 260 blueberry grader, which was the world’s first deep-learning program for fruit sorting. LUCAi™ deep learning for apples followed on the TOMRA Spectrim machine. In 2023, TOMRA added a cherries application to the LUCAi™ portfolio, which is now available on the InVision2, and there are other categories currently being worked on.
“A key pillar of our strategy is maintaining our technology leadership. We want to share with the industry the outstanding results our customers are achieving by integrating LUCAi™ Artificial Intelligence into their sorting systems for blueberries, apples, cherries, and soon citrus, along with other commodities. There are already over 500 processing lanes now powered by LUCAI™, and the results have been outstanding in terms of performance, improved batch quality, and greater ease of use for operators.”
“We have already installed the first trial units in all citrus growing regions in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres. Specifically, in Spain, we have two units operational for the upcoming citrus season and expect strong demand for this solution in several countries. asserted David del Castillo.

Clothing brands must recycle or reuse: New CA law
By Caleigh Wells Oct. 03, 2024
Most recycling systems can handle cardboard, glass, and aluminum. But cotton or nylon? When it’s already been crafted into a dress, swimsuit, or pair of jeans? That’s currently beyond what many recycling systems are set up to handle.
But recycled fabrics are coming. California just passed a law that requires textile companies to repurpose or recycle the products they make so they stay out of the landfill.
Companies that sell more than $1 million worth of products in California will be mandated to help fund the state’s textile recycling efforts, “for those materials to be sorted and then reused, whether that's upcycling, recycling, or sorted and turned into additional feedstock for the next generation of products,” says California Senator Josh Newman, who authored the law.
The Responsible Textile Recovery Act of 2024 also incentivizes manufacturers to make more fabrics that can be recycled once you’re done using them.
“If you can do that, you're not only addressing the waste stream landfill question, but you're really making a difference in environmentalism,” says Newman.
And it’ll have implications beyond state borders. Because if H&M or another company makes more recyclable clothes, they’re not just going to make them for Californians, they’ll likely sell those garments elsewhere.
The state has until July 2028 to implement the law, and the companies have until 2030 to comply.
Now the pressure is on to figure out how.
That’s a tall order in the U.S., where about 85% of old clothes don’t get recycled. Americans throw away 92 million tons of textiles every year.

Sasquatch Resources Reports Results from 528 kg Sorting Test of Waste-Rock at Mount Sicker
Sasquatch Resources Corp.
Wed, October 9, 2024 at 1:30 PM GMT+2 4 min read
VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESSWIRE / October 9, 2024 / SASQUATCH RESOURCES CORP. (CSE:SASQ)
("Sasquatch" or the "Company") is pleased to announce results from a 528kg sorting test-run of waste rock from Sasquatch's Mount Sicker Property performed by Tomra Systems ASA in Germany ("Tomra"), and further analyzed by ALS Laboratories in North Vancouver, Canada ("ALS").
Sasquatch released the results of a systematic sampling program covering the majority of its waste-rock area at Mount Sicker on March 27, 2024. The results from 97 samples taken averaged 1.86 g/t gold, 48.6 g/t silver, 1.22% copper and 3.05% zinc. From these results, Sasquatch and Sulphide Remediation Inc. ("SRI") have begun to explore the possibility of utilizing a mobile, closed-loop crushing and sorting system to extract and separate high-sulphide material in the waste rock, which could then be shipped off-site for further processing. In furtherance of this, the Company took a further 528 kg sample from four separate locations within the waste-rock area and shipped it to the Tomra test-lab in Germany. The sample was run through the same sorting apparatus expected to be used if the project proceeds on a larger scale, the Tomra COM Tertiary XRT unit.
...
Sasquatch's CEO Pete Smith commented, "We are very excited about these results, which further demonstrate substantial economic potential in the waste-rock at Mount Sicker. Historically high cut-offs for mining activity and resulting high grades left behind in the waste-rock, normal for mines that were active so long ago, combined with new sorting technologies that can further separate remaining high-sulphide material from low-grade waste, may provide us an opportunity to generate substantial value from the waste-rock that has been left behind, as well as dramatically improve environmental and safety conditions at Mount Sicker. Further work is ongoing, including detailed metallurgy of the sorted material which will help inform us of potential future processing partners and terms. We have thus far been receiving overwhelmingly positive local support, and our permitting process is underway, and we expect to be providing further updates on all fronts throughout the fall."

‘More Than a Store': Why Goodwill Wants to be a Force for Textile Circularity
Story by Jasmin Malik Chua
• 2d • 5 min read
Goodwill wants to be known for more than selling people's castoffs.
For more than 120 years, the charitable retailer has been a vital but frequently overlooked player in municipal waste management, creating job opportunities for the marginalized and in need by finding new outlets for old housewares, books, toys and clothing.
Now, Goodwill wants to play a more active role in textile circularity-and not just spinning one person's fashion regret into another's sartorial score. It and fellow nonprofit Accelerating Circularity recently concluded a two-year million pilot, which was funded with a $1.28 million grant from the Walmart Foundation, to develop the skills and infrastructure to aggregate, sort and process textiles for reuse and recycling.
Up next is a $2 million traceability study, also funded by Walmart, that will support what it describes as a "multi-stakeholder initiative to follow the global journey of secondhand textiles" so it can understand where its goods are going, even if they're being sold by third parties.
The idea behind both schemes is to figure out how Goodwill can better keep textiles out of landfills, both in North America, where the organization is based, and in the marketplaces of countries such as Chile and Ghana, which have become the "final sink" for the dregs of Western overconsumption.
As textile-to-textile recycling ladders up in scale in the United States and Europe to meet mounting consumer and regulatory appetite for lower-impact materials that clean up rather than add to fashion's ballooning waste problem
...
"The stigma of buying from Goodwill just isn't there anymore," she said. "[But] I think a lot of people still don't realize how much more than a store Goodwill really is."
Preston agreed. Getting things right will be a multi-year journey, but there's slow and steady and then there's slow but stuck. For now, Goodwill is actively engaging with the likes of the Rochester Institute of Technology and sortation systems Tomra and Sortile.
"It takes time to do it, but we need to be on that pathway today if we're going to be successful tomorrow," he said. "We need to grab the mantle and realize that we have an opportunity for leadership in the area."

The Gambia launches landmark plan to reduce plastic pollution by 86 per cent
9 October 2024 - 3 minutes
National Action Plan hopes to tackle rising plastic pollution in the country including phased ban on single-use plastic bottles
The government of The Gambia – along with Common Seas – has today announced a plan to tackle plastic pollution in the country, ahead of the final round of the Global Plastics Treaty negotiations later this year.
An estimated 95,000 tonnes of plastics will escape from The Gambia into rivers and the sea between now and 2033, but the new National Action Plan to End Plastic Pollution covers a roadmap on how the country – one of the most biodiverse per square mile on the planet – will aim to reduce such plastic pollution by 86 per cent in the next ten years, contributing to the improvement of human health, the tourism industry and The Gambia’s environment.
...
Policies outlined in the plan including enhanced bans on single-use plastic carrier bags, a phased ban of single-use plastic bottles and a introduction of a deposit return scheme for other bottles, as well as improving solid waste management through improved collections, storage and recycling. The Gambia also plan to reduce the country’s reliance on plastic bags such as water bags, by installing public water foundations and improving the quality of the water supply. Bans and charges may also be implemented for ‘on-the-go’ food and drink packaging.

Sasquatch released the results of a systematic sampling program covering the majority of its waste-rock area at Mount Sicker on March 27, 2024. The results from 97 samples taken averaged 1.86 g/t gold, 48.6 g/t silver, 1.22% copper and 3.05% zinc. From these results, Sasquatch and Sulphide Remediation Inc. ("SRI") have begun to explore the possibility of utilizing a mobile, closed-loop crushing and sorting system to extract and separate high-sulphide material in the waste rock, which could then be shipped off-site for further processing. In furtherance of this, the Company took a further 528 kg sample from four separate locations within the waste-rock area and shipped it to the Tomra test-lab in Germany. The sample was run through the same sorting apparatus expected to be used if the project proceeds on a larger scale, the Tomra COM Tertiary XRT unit.
...
Sasquatch's CEO Pete Smith commented, "We are very excited about these results, which further demonstrate substantial economic potential in the waste-rock at Mount Sicker. Historically high cut-offs for mining activity and resulting high grades left behind in the waste-rock, normal for mines that were active so long ago, combined with new sorting technologies that can further separate remaining high-sulphide material from low-grade waste, may provide us an opportunity to generate substantial value from the waste-rock that has been left behind, as well as dramatically improve environmental and safety conditions at Mount Sicker. Further work is ongoing, including detailed metallurgy of the sorted material which will help inform us of potential future processing partners and terms. We have thus far been receiving overwhelmingly positive local support, and our permitting process is underway, and we expect to be providing further updates on all fronts throughout the fall."

‘More Than a Store': Why Goodwill Wants to be a Force for Textile Circularity
Story by Jasmin Malik Chua
• 2d • 5 min read
Goodwill wants to be known for more than selling people's castoffs.
For more than 120 years, the charitable retailer has been a vital but frequently overlooked player in municipal waste management, creating job opportunities for the marginalized and in need by finding new outlets for old housewares, books, toys and clothing.
Now, Goodwill wants to play a more active role in textile circularity-and not just spinning one person's fashion regret into another's sartorial score. It and fellow nonprofit Accelerating Circularity recently concluded a two-year million pilot, which was funded with a $1.28 million grant from the Walmart Foundation, to develop the skills and infrastructure to aggregate, sort and process textiles for reuse and recycling.
Up next is a $2 million traceability study, also funded by Walmart, that will support what it describes as a "multi-stakeholder initiative to follow the global journey of secondhand textiles" so it can understand where its goods are going, even if they're being sold by third parties.
The idea behind both schemes is to figure out how Goodwill can better keep textiles out of landfills, both in North America, where the organization is based, and in the marketplaces of countries such as Chile and Ghana, which have become the "final sink" for the dregs of Western overconsumption.
As textile-to-textile recycling ladders up in scale in the United States and Europe to meet mounting consumer and regulatory appetite for lower-impact materials that clean up rather than add to fashion's ballooning waste problem
...
"The stigma of buying from Goodwill just isn't there anymore," she said. "[But] I think a lot of people still don't realize how much more than a store Goodwill really is."
Preston agreed. Getting things right will be a multi-year journey, but there's slow and steady and then there's slow but stuck. For now, Goodwill is actively engaging with the likes of the Rochester Institute of Technology and sortation systems Tomra and Sortile.
"It takes time to do it, but we need to be on that pathway today if we're going to be successful tomorrow," he said. "We need to grab the mantle and realize that we have an opportunity for leadership in the area."

The Gambia launches landmark plan to reduce plastic pollution by 86 per cent
9 October 2024 - 3 minutes
National Action Plan hopes to tackle rising plastic pollution in the country including phased ban on single-use plastic bottles
The government of The Gambia – along with Common Seas – has today announced a plan to tackle plastic pollution in the country, ahead of the final round of the Global Plastics Treaty negotiations later this year.
An estimated 95,000 tonnes of plastics will escape from The Gambia into rivers and the sea between now and 2033, but the new National Action Plan to End Plastic Pollution covers a roadmap on how the country – one of the most biodiverse per square mile on the planet – will aim to reduce such plastic pollution by 86 per cent in the next ten years, contributing to the improvement of human health, the tourism industry and The Gambia’s environment.
...
Policies outlined in the plan including enhanced bans on single-use plastic carrier bags, a phased ban of single-use plastic bottles and a introduction of a deposit return scheme for other bottles, as well as improving solid waste management through improved collections, storage and recycling. The Gambia also plan to reduce the country’s reliance on plastic bags such as water bags, by installing public water foundations and improving the quality of the water supply. Bans and charges may also be implemented for ‘on-the-go’ food and drink packaging.

TOMRA expands GAINnext™ ecosystem to include PET Cleaner and Deinking/Paper Cleaning applications for North America
Leading global sorting solutions provider, TOMRA Recycling, announces the expansion of its GAINnext™ deep-learning-based AI ecosystem to include two new applications in North America for material recovery facilities (MRFs) and secondary recyclers. Developed to recognize feed material encountered by recyclers in North America, TOMRA introduces new PET Cleaner and Paper Cleaning applications that leverage deep learning technology to recognize hard-to-classify objects, reducing the need for manual sorting. Capable of identifying thousands of objects by material and shape in milliseconds, these new GAINnext™ applications help recyclers to reduce PET and paper bale impurities, enabling operations to create new revenue streams, increase profitability and decrease costs.
10 Oct 2024 2 min
The two new applications feature an intelligent system that simultaneously integrates multiple sensor data for higher sorting accuracy than traditional optical sorters alone. The system complements the TOMRA AUTOSORT™ sensor-based material identification with deep learning AI visual object recognition offered by GAINnext™ for outstanding high-purity performance. The combination maximizes recovery and purity of valuable PET and paper materials at high-throughput speeds.
...
AI ecosystem expansion
TOMRA was the first to introduce for the recycling industry its field-proven deep learning AI technology in 2019 with an application to identify and remove polyethylene (PE) silicone cartridges from PE streams. Since then, TOMRA’s deep learning engineers have trained the company’s artificial neural networks with millions of object images to solve some of the world’s most complex automated sorting tasks, ranging from wood to plastics to used beverage cans (UBCs).
TOMRA introduced three revolutionary plastics applications in early 2024, initially in the European market, to efficiently separate food-grade from non-food-grade PET, PP and HDPE at high throughput rates with purity levels reaching 95%. Simultaneously, TOMRA launched the two non-food applications that included the PET cleaner application for higher purity PET bottle streams and the deinking application for cleaner paper streams for the European market. Today, the announced PET Cleaner and Paper Cleaning join the UBC application in expanding the GAINnext™ ecosystem to address the region-specific needs of recyclers in the Americas.

EQ secures funding to advance XRT ore sorting trials
EQ Resources (ASX:EQR) has secured $250,000 in funding through the Queensland Government’s Mining Equipment, Technology and Services (METS) Collaborative Project Fund to initiate advanced x-ray transmission (XRT) ore sorting trials.
The company says the advanced sorted technology trials are aimed at assessing the viability of redeveloping the historic Wolfram Camp tungsten mine in Queensland.
...
Trials of the sorting technology will be a collaborative effort involving Tomra Sorting, and The University of Queensland, Sustainable Minerals Institute. EQ will be the consortium lead to the project.
Tomra will provide its industrial XRT sorters and support for the optimisation of sorting technologies, and its pilot facility in Sydney will also be used for preliminary testing and onsite trials that will ensure the XRT sorters perform optimally on the Wolfram Camp materials.

Hvis man er langsiktig i Tomra, tenker jeg at en eventuell halvt års utsettelse av innføring av pantesystem i Polen ikke er av veldig stor betydning, og iallefall ingen 'katastrofe'.
Men ettersom jeg jo poster nyheter om Tomra her på forumet, finner jeg det riktig å informere om at jeg nettopp fant ut at der nå verserer rykter om en slik utsettelse i Polen. Og når uttalelse om en mulig halvt års utsettelse kommer fra ministerhold, er det vel kanskje mer enn bare rykter.
Muligens kan dette årsaken til dagens og den senere tids svake kursutvikling?

Da har jeg lest hele artikkelen som jeg oversatte fra polsk til engelsk og sakset fra i forrige innlegg. Omfattende artikkel med uttalelser fra en rekke interessenter. Etter å ha lest disse, er jeg ikke i særlig tvil om at oppstarten vil bli utsatt, til tross for at polske myndigheter helt til det siste har tviholdt på at oppstart vil komme til å skje som planlagt 01.01.2025.
Dette sier Tomra rundt problematikken om utsettelse:
Steps towards the ROP and the deposit system are absolutely necessary
Anna Sapota, Vice President of Public Affairs for North-Eastern Europe at TOMRA Group:
From the perspective of the economic situation in our country - potential penalties for failure to achieve the goals set by the EU and the exorbitant amounts paid related to the plastic tax, but also from the perspective of necessary actions to improve the state of the environment, failure to introduce a deposit system would result in huge losses. It should also be noted that it is the deposit system that is the way to fulfill the obligations of producers under extended producer responsibility, to which the market expects changes and around which talks are taking place in the government. Implementing a deposit on beverage packaging is necessary to be able to achieve the assumed levels of collection of raw materials and recyclate. In the case of plastic bottles, we are not even close to the required 77%, because in selective collection we achieve no more than 50%. With the current waste infrastructure, which will not change without the deposit system, there is no prospect of increasing these levels. Steps towards EPR and the deposit system are absolutely necessary to create a long-term approach to the development of the circular economy.
Postponing the start date can be seen as a good solution for the various parties involved in creating the system. The additional six months can be used to further prepare the infrastructure for collection and introduce appropriately marked deposit packaging. Both producers and trade representatives have requested an extension of the preparation time in order to best plan the organization and select technologies for their needs. At the same time, we should use this period to work on changes in the extended producer responsibility scheme for other packaging, so that they can function together with the deposit system next year.

We have submitted a self-amendment to postpone the deposit system by six months. Now everything is in the hands of the Prime Minister - said Deputy Minister of Climate Anita Sowińska on the X website.
The Ministry of Climate and Environment has prepared and submitted to the Council of Ministers a self-amendment to amend the Act on Packaging and Packaging Waste Management regarding the postponement of the entry into force of the deposit system. According to previous assumptions the new regulations were to apply from January 2025.
"We have submitted a self-amendment to the Council of Ministers regarding the postponement of the bail system by 6 months. Now it's all in the hands of the Prime Minister. We need a bail bill for environmental, social and economic reasons," Deputy Climate Minister Anita Sowińska wrote on platform X.
Minister: the bail system is not ready
On Wednesday, Climate Minister Paulina Hennig-Kloska announced that bail system at the moment it is not ready to enter into force. She added that the ministry is considering postponing the date of its implementation by half a year.
"All stakeholders, including the operators themselves when asked today if they were ready, said no," she said.
She also added that the draft amendment to the deposit system with an auto-amendment of the Ministry of Climate sealing and postponing the date of its entry into force will be submitted to the Council of Ministers. As she noted, postponement must be submitted to the government by the end of the year.

Jeg har ikke fått sett presentasjonen i dag. Noen her som har sett den?
Der er nemlig en ting jeg lurer på mer enn noe annet når det gjelder kommentarer fra TOMRA Collection om dagen. Har det fremkommet i dag at oppstart av pantesystemet i Polen høyst sannsynlig blir utsatt fra 01.01.2025 til tidligst 01.07.25 (se de 3 innleggene forut for dagens her på tråden)?
Så når det gjelder Polen, venter jeg på en uttalelse fra selskapet.
På lang sikt er jeg ikke bekymret for noe når det gjelder Tomra som investering, heller ikke en utsettelse i Polen som eventuelt kun innebærer en forskyvning av inntekter noe frem i tid, slik jeg ser det, men på kort sikt har jeg likevel valgt å ta ned eksponeringen i aksjen på grunn av nettopp denne usikkerheten da jeg er helt i villrede om den er diskontert i kursutviklingen eller ei (les: risikoen shorting og generell kortsiktighet i aksjemarkedet representerer).
Er ingen trader så vil ikke bli det spor overrasket hvis jeg mislykkes og må 'betale dyrt' her, for ambisjonen er helt klart å igjen øke eksponeringen.
En annen ambisjon er å iallefall ta en pause fra, 'monologen'/postingen om Tomra her på forumet.
