Detect, prevent and protect against dangerous objects
A complete solution for protection within sorting centers.
Types of dangerous objects
We detect and manage a variety of dangerous objects commonly found in sorting centers.
Based on your specific needs, our solution can be adapted to identify and manage other types of dangerous objects.
Nitrous oxide (N2O) cartridges
Gas cylinders
Lithium-ion batteries
Incompressible cylinders
Nitrous oxide cartridges, also known as "laughing gas cartridges," are increasingly found in sorting centers due to their misuse as a recreational product. Legally sold for culinary use, these canisters are often discarded after use in recycling bins instead of being taken to proper disposal facilities.
- Cylinders rejected in collection
- Incompressible, they damage sorting equipment
- Potential explosion in presses or furnaces

Flammable cylinders
Gas cylinders end up in selective collection sorting centers mainly due to sorting errors by users. Many individuals are unaware that these cylinders — whether camping cartridges, butane or propane canisters — are hazardous waste that must never be disposed of with recyclable household packaging.
- Fire outbreaks in presses
- Risk of fire and explosion
- Endangers personnel and facilities

Lithium-ion batteries and fire outbreaks
Found in many everyday objects — phones, e-cigarettes, toys, cordless tools, scooters, etc. — they are often discarded with household waste or recyclable packaging when the device no longer works.
- Heat up rapidly during the sorting process
- Frequent sources of fire at undetermined points
- Require rigorous management for safety
