Over more than 15 years in the recycling sector, PICVISA has developed a range of separation equipment that reflects the broader evolution of sorting technology – from optical separation by colour and material to AI-driven robotic sorting.

ECOGLASS and ECOPACK: optical glass and plastic dividers

ECOGLASS and ECOPACK represent the foundation of this work – optical sorters that separate glass by colour and contamination, and plastics by polymer type, respectively. These remain core to many sorting lines, providing the high-throughput separation that mechanical sorting alone can't achieve.

ECOPICK and BRAIN by PICVISA: Artificial Intelligence and more Deep Learning

ECOPICK and BRAIN represent the next stage – bringing AI and Deep Learning into both the physical sorting process (ECOPICK's robotic picking) and the consultancy side (BRAIN's feasibility analysis). Together, this progression from optical separation to AI-driven robotics is what PICVISA points to as its contribution to changing what's possible in a recycling plant.
