Market growth for sorting tech provider

Spain’s optical sorting technology provider Picvisa, a company owned by Calaf Grup with the participation of Eldan Recycling, has acquired Regulator-Centrisa, a specialist in metal separation solutions for the recycling industry.

With over 40 years of experience and rooted in Spain, Regulator-Centrisa has established itself as a benchmark in the Iberian peninsula and South America, offering systems for the recovery of ferrous and non-ferrous metals. Its technological expertise now becomes part of Picvisa’s portfolio, expanding its offering in optical sorting and automation systems based on vision and AI.

Cables, e-scrap, mixed metals 

‘The acquisition aligns with the growth strategy of Calaf Grup’s industrial division and further boosts Picvisa’s collaboration with Eldan Recycling in the development of advanced metal sorting solutions,’ says the company. ‘With this addition, the group broadens its range of technologies to handle mixed metals, e-scrap and cable applications.’

Both companies will maintain their operations and brands independently, leveraging commercial and technological synergies, especially in international markets.

All eyes on metal recycling 

‘With the integration of Regulator-Centrisa, we expand our capabilities and reinforce our value proposition by offering comprehensive sorting solutions that combine optical, magnetic, and inductive technologies,’ says Picvisa’s ceo Luis Seguí. ‘This step consolidates our leadership in intelligent sorting and strengthens our international presence in the metal recycling segment.’
