How we supported our customer's development of an ultra-modern robot sorting line

Markus Närhi, CEO, Kuljetusrinki.

Family-owned Finnish waste management company Kuljetusrinki aims to support the green transition and help its customers achieve their recycling and sustainability targets. To meet increasingly stricter sustainability requirements and regulations, the company has invested in an ultra-modern robot sorting line with financing and advice from Nordea. The facility is used as a reference across Europe.

“The new technology allows us to increase the amount of raw material destined for recycling and reduce the amount of incinerated waste, which also cuts carbon emissions. It will multiply the amount of high-quality and detailed data available to our customers and us, and significantly improve our understanding of waste materials and their composition,” says Markus Närhi, CEO of Kuljetusrinki. 

The new technology allows us to increase the amount of raw material destined for recycling.

“We have a long-standing relationship with Nordea. This was a big investment for us and we appreciate the insightful discussions with our relationship manager and the advice and expertise provided when planning how to best optimise the funding. The basis for the funding was a Verde loan, where Nordea, together with the European Investment Fund, promotes more sustainable investments and the green transition. Nordea has a broad range of solutions and an extensive network that we can benefit from.”
