Maximum automation for a consistent sorting process

Erdotex Group has almost 30 years of experience in sorting and upcycling used textiles. In 2020, the company moved to a new sorting facility in Ridderkerk, The Netherlands. This facility was built with one key feature in mind: automation.

The bar for the project was set high; The new installation had to be able to process up to 100 tons of textile per day with minimal human intervention. The challenge was to develop a system in which all processes follow each other seamlessly and almost fully automatically. To realize this project, Erdotex called on Belgian machine builder Valvan.

Valvan has always been a preferred partner. Erdotex has been relying on their experience and technological ingenuity in developing automated sorting and baling systems since the very beginning.

Mert Ozturk, Executive Assistant at Erdotex B.V. relays his experience working with Valvan on this project: “Their engineers did a great job analyzing our needs and providing suitable solutions. Together, we developed an efficient sorting installation that allows us to offer our customers products of consistent quality.”
