New White Paper: Textile Sorting with
Hyperspectral Imaging
29.01.2025
We are excited to present our latest white paper: „Textile Sorting with Hyperspectral Imaging“! It explores the application of hyperspectral imaging for efficient and accurate textile sorting, highlighting the functionality of our BlackIndustry SWIR 1.7 Max camera. Covering the wavelength range from 900-1730 nm, this new generation hyperspectral camera enables a precise differentiation of different textile fibers in the SWIR range, including challenging blended fabrics.
The white paper discusses the growing need for advanced sorting technologies in textile recycling. With the rise of fast fashion and high return rates, the demand for sustainable solutions is greater than ever. Hyperspectral imaging improves sorting accuracy, helping to identify and separate pure and blended textiles, making recycling more efficient. The study provides real-world insights into the sorting of cotton, polyester, polyamide, silk and other fibers, showcasing how this technology supports a circular economy.
