EVEREST CORPORATION - WASTE TREATMENT

Complete installation of an automated weighing system

Giropès has installed an automated weighing system that allows total control of the recycling and waste treatment plant.

Everest Containers (Public Containers of Catalonia) has been serving the construction industry’s waste management needs for 45 years. The company utilises the best waste management infrastructure, where the weighing process is a vital part of management.

Having total control of the waste that is deposited at the plants is one of the most important issues when it comes to waste management and to excel in doing so, an automated weighing system was installed in one of its most important facilities, the Intercomarcal Recycling Plant.

This facility is responsible for collecting and managing all the recycled wood from construction sites (doors, frames, windows, etc.) which is then crushed and sent to treatment plants to provide a water purification service.

The weighing installation installed in the Intercomarcal Recycling Plant is made up of an above-ground BPPCE EVO truck scale which is accompanied by rolling guides to provide safety to the truck driver.

Furthermore, in order to offer an autonomous service to the weighing station, the BPPCE EVO scale was installed with Gestruck Pro software, two GST2 terminals with a barcode reader and the vehicle registration plate reading module.

Thanks to this installation Everest Corporation allows transporters to carry out the weighing process completely autonomously, being in total control of the inflow and outflow of materials without the need of a scale operator.
