Located to the south of Oslo in the municipality of Skien, the full automated station is equipped with robotic arms that can perform up to 6,000 picks per hour. The standalone processing facility is designed to handle both construction and demolition and commercial and industrial waste and its sorting robots can recover fractions such as A, B and C wood, non-metals, hard plastics, black plastics and inert materials. Sindre Hauen, executive vice president of Bjorstaddalen, said: "We want to be at the forefront and are constantly looking for better solutions for handling industrial waste. It has long worried us that there is a low degree of material recycling in Norway compared to other countries. We are good at recovering energy in this country, but that only means that waste is incinerated. We want to do somethinq about this."
