Tomra Recycling
Effective recycling of post-consumer plastic packaging and products that enables a circular economy requires intelligent, high throughput sorting systems. TOMRA’s market-leading sensor technologies upgrade plastics by instantly sorting various polymers into individual fractions while removing difficult-to-detect contaminants. Our advanced sorting systems for plastic films and flakes, as well as color sorting, ensure your operation is fully capable of processing high-quality plastic fractions across multiple applications, today and in the future.

TOMRA Insight
One of the most valuable assets for recycling operations is the data captured by your sorting units. With our cloud-based platform TOMRA Insight, we enable data-driven optimization of sorting processes through near-live monitoring of material streams. An easy-to-use dashboard and customizable reporting tools offer you the advantage of quick and strategic decision-making saving time and money.

GREEN TRAVEL TIPS
Check for reusability
Single-use items are often only used for minutes but can leave an imprint on the earth that lasts thousands of years. Look for items that can be used again and again.
Consider the entire package
Choose items that come in recyclable packaging. If the item you want doesn’t, use your voice, and social media to let them know what you want!
Switch up what’s on your plate
Challenge yourself to go mostly plant-based for a few days. Farming animals for meat and dairy takes a lot out of the environment.
Ask for what you (don’t) want
If you are grabbing a takeout meal, tell the restaurant that you don’t want your food to be wrapped in plastic, or that you don’t want any napkins, straws, plastic utensils, or condiment sachets.
Watch what you order
When a substantial amount of your food order ends up in the bin, not only do you waste the resources that went into making that food, but you increase the amount of methane that gets emitted into the environment. Know how hungry you really are and order accordingly.
Shop better
There are a few ways you can do this. First, choose retailers and brands you know are eco-friendly. A quick Google search is all you need. Every time you make a sustainable choice, you encourage brands to make more sustainable choices too.
Go for a walk — but make it green
Grab a bag and head out on a trash-finding mission. If you want to make things more interesting, download Litterati. It’s a free app that allows you to take photos of the different pieces of trash you find, then upload and share it with a community of like-minded ‘litterati’.
Reduce unnecessary consumption
Skip the takeout coffee and bring a reusable cup instead. Bring your own bottle of water. It’s small actions like this that can add up.
