- Waste
Treatment and recovery of glass jars containing downgraded, expired, non-compliant or withdrawn food products that require a suitable unpackaging and recovery solution: liquids (including alcohol), fruit and vegetables, dairy products, terrines, sauces, condiments, spices, etc. Recy-vert relies on an unpackaging technology that effectively separates organic matter from glass, caps and lids. Each stream is then directed to the appropriate recovery channel in order to optimise material recycling and the recovery of biowaste.

Its features
Environmentally friendly
- Effective separation of the different materials (organic matter, glass, caps and lids) in order to optimise their recycling and recovery in dedicated channels. - Reduction of waste sent to landfill or incineration, thereby limiting its environmental impact. - Preservation of resources through the reuse of recoverable materials
Second life
Thanks to effective sorting, each material is turned into a new secondary raw material: - Biowaste is converted into biogas through anaerobic digestion - Glass is sent to a recycling centre where it will be reused to make new glass products - Metal caps, lids and seals are sent to metal recycling channels
