VALVAN NV
Valvan is a Belgian engineering company specialised in advanced automation solutions for textile sorting for reuse & recycling. With more than 60 years of experience in machine building and process engineering, Valvan supports the textile and recycling industries in responding to the rapidly growing volumes and increasing complexity of textile waste. Headquartered in Menen, Belgium, Valvan is part of the Valtech Group and operates worldwide as a technology-driven, project-oriented solution provider. Valvan designs and delivers customised machinery and turnkey installations for post-consumer and post-industrial textile streams. Its solutions focus on transforming labour-intensive, manual sorting processes into efficient, scalable, and data-driven industrial operations. Acting as a system integrator, Valvan combines proprietary technologies with selected third-party components to deliver reliable, future-proof recycling facilities. A core pillar of Valvan’s portfolio is textile sorting for recycling, built around two complementary technologies: Fibersort and Trimclean. Fibersort is an automated sorting system that identifies textiles by fibre composition and colour using Near Infrared (NIR) spectroscopy, camera technology, and artificial intelligence. Designed for post-consumer garments, Fibersort enables high-throughput, consistent sorting into recycling-ready fractions, supporting both mechanical and chemical recycling applications. Trimclean focuses on the purification of textiles destined for recycling by automatically removing non-textile elements such as buttons, zippers, labels, patches, and other contaminants. By combining multi-level metal detection, AI-based vision systems, and NIR analysis, Trimclean significantly improves textile purity and downstream recycling quality, especially for cut textiles, clippings, and production waste. Valvan delivers complete recycling installations ranging from semi-automated lines to fully automated, high-capacity plants. All systems are modular and scalable, allowing customers to expand capacity without changing the underlying technology. Integrated software and reporting tools provide transparency on material flows, composition, and output, supporting operational optimisation and regulatory reporting. With references across Europe, North America, and Asia, Valvan partners with recyclers, sorters, charities, and industrial players to industrialise textile recycling. By combining engineering expertise, innovation, and long-term vision, Valvan positions technology as a practical response to the global textile waste challenge.
