'Over 4900 of our sorting systems have been installed in 50 countries worldwide', TOMRA's senior vice president Tom Eng announced at the tech company's test centre demonstration this week. He underlined that recycling solutions for aluminium would become more and more important as modern-day cars are designed to be lighter. The good news is that TOMRA's 'high precision' X-ray transmission sorting unit X-tract ensures an aluminium of up to 99%.

A total of 96.1 million motor vehicles were produced globally last year – of which almost 78 million represented passenger cars.

Growth was up 14% in China, 2.8% in Europe and 1.6% in North America compared to 2015 results.
