PICVISA Technology Utilization at Its Marcianise Facility
- Innovative Technology: A new automated sorting line from PICVISA will be installed at the Marcianise Esposito plant. It can handle up to two tons of old clothing per hour and classify it by composition and color.
- Sustainability effect: Up to 3.6 kg of CO2 emissions are saved for every kilogram of recycled or reused clothing, thereby lowering environmental effect and promoting the circular economy.
- Leadership in Circular Fashion: Esposito is a leader in sustainable textile management and recycling in Italy and Europe, processing 100 tons of discarded clothing per day.
An innovative automatic clothes sorting line by composition and color will be installed at Esposito’s Marcianise plant. Esposito is a leader in the management and classification of worn clothing in Italy. By introducing its cutting-edge optical sorting technology to a vital market like Italy, PICVISA takes another step toward solidifying its position as a major force in the textile industry.
With cutting-edge 4.0 automation technologies, the Marcianise Esposito factory is among the most sophisticated in the nation and currently processes 100 tons of worn apparel and footwear every day. Through a careful selection and regeneration process, discarded clothing is given a new lease on life here, making it ready for sale in a variety of global marketplaces.
Combating the environmental effects of the fashion industry, which generates 92 million tons of waste yearly and accounts for 10% of global carbon emissions, requires recovering and recycling used clothing. The need for raw materials like cotton, which uses 20,000 liters of water to create one kilogram of clothing, is decreased, and up to 3.6 kilos of CO2 emissions are saved for every kilogram of clothing that is recycled or reused. Esposito’s efforts directly contribute to these reductions by prolonging the life cycle of clothing, greatly reducing the industry’s environmental impact and assisting in the global transition to a circular economy.
The plant will be renovated in the upcoming months with the new PICVISA automatic line, which uses a dual conveyor system to categorize clothing into 24 different categories and can handle up to two tons of clothing per hour. This innovation, which will incorporate a sophisticated product traceability system that permits precise control at every step of the process, will greatly increase the efficiency and accuracy of sorting clothing by composition and color.
This project is a component of Esposito’s ambitious strategic goal to keep improving the handling of apparel that is intended for both textile recycling and the second-hand market. Esposito’s dedication to sustainability and innovation is strengthened by PICVISA technology, which guarantees that its operations continue to be at the forefront of environmental responsibility and efficiency.
This installation solidifies PICVISA’s position in a vital market like Italy and marks a major milestone in the company’s growth within the textile industry. Esposito, in turn, keeps reaffirming its position as a major participant in the textile industry’s shift to a circular economy and as a pioneer in the management of worn apparel in Italy and Europe.
