FAQ

Have a question?

The answer may be right here.

Our solution automatically analyzes incoming flows as soon as they arrive at the sorting center.

 

It identifies non-compliant drops, documents anomalies, and guarantees full traceability in case of reclassification.

 

This approach lets you secure the quality of incoming loads and have objective visual proof to discuss with your suppliers. We go further by helping you sustainably improve sorting at the source.

 

Thanks to our analysis data, we support your teams, your clients, and your members in correcting recurring errors, training on better practices, and improving overall sorting performance.

At Akanthas, we take the time to understand each site. No client operates the same way, and our approach is anything but standardized.

 

We provide intelligent sensors that we then adapt to your constraints, your flows, and your objectives. We don’t offer a rigid model — we offer a solution that truly adjusts to your field reality.

Our solution is designed to faithfully reflect field reality.

 

Our sensors measure flows automatically, without human intervention, to avoid subjectivity and guarantee an analysis based on factual data. Every container or sorting zone is monitored by calibrated optical sensors that detect fill rates, sorting errors, and flow variations.

 

Data is then timestamped, archived, and correlated with visual proof — ensuring complete, verifiable traceability at any moment.

 

The audit isn’t a judgment but an objective starting point: it surfaces the losses, reclassifications, and anomalies that used to slip through. You then use those results to adjust practices, identify concrete improvement levers, and build a reliable, measurable view of your operations.

We fully understand this concern and have planned several measures to address it.

 

Our system works by taking still images, not video, and the sensor is designed to be GDPR-compliant: it cannot recognize a human face or a license plate. We also provide a GDPR communication kit to install on the mast to clearly inform your teams and visitors. The sensor is positioned at around 4 meters in height, which makes it difficult to reach.

 

Before every installation, we run a risk assessment, and if needed, additional insurance can be set up to protect your investment. These measures combine physical security and regulatory compliance — while limiting the risks of theft or damage.
