Hyperspectral Imaging in Textile Recycling
20.11.2024
The textile industry is facing a sustainability crisis. Fast fashion, increasing online sales and high return rates contribute to enormous waste: in Europe, up to 594,000 tons of textiles are destroyed annually, with 22-43% of returned items incinerated or landfilled. Combined with resource-intensive production, these problems call for innovative recycling solutions.
Hyperspectral Imaging offers a transformative approach. By analyzing the spectral signatures of textiles, it enables precise sorting of fibers, blends and contaminants, paving the way for a circular economy.
HAIP Solutions uses advanced technologies, including the BlackIndustry SWIR 1.7 Max camera, to optimize recycling processes and promote sustainable material reuse.
Look forward to a new publication – our white paper on hyperspectral imaging and textile recycling will be released next month, providing key insights into this application field!
