Discover the complete list of waste types detected by Lixo

More than 80 types of waste are detected by Lixo's artificial intelligence. These identifications enable a comprehensive analysis of the waste collected during collection rounds.

Identified waste

What kind of waste does Lixo detect ?

With its new Omnia model, the Lixo solution can characterize waste and its variations. For example, the AI considers that a thick cardboard box is different from an oversize cardboard box or a cardboard box.
Depending on the type of rounds you run, the waste and its variations can be customized and adjusted to best match your sorting rules.
