Distinguishes More Than 30 Plastic Types
Combining a robust handheld device with an intuitive app, the innovative solutions identify a broad range of plastic and textile materials on the spot. trinamiX thereby empowers customers across the circular economy value chain to improve sorting of waste streams as a crucial step in the recycling process.
At the push of a button, trinamiX Mobile NIR Spectroscopy Solutions distinguish more than 30 plastic types as well as 15 different kinds of textiles and compositions without damaging the material. Within seconds, the results are shown on the user’s smartphone and become available in a customer portal where in-depth reports can be created.

The newly launched textile solution supports a wide selection of textile grades used in clothing, furniture, and household goods, including cotton, wool, silk, and nylon 6/6.6. Textile blends for the most common material types can also be identified.
