04 Mar 2024 --- Tomra Collection is conducting market tests of its new R2 reverse vending machine (RVM) for beverage container recycling in selected stores across Europe. The in-store tests are taking place at several supermarkets in Germany, Sweden, Norway and Finland to involve retailers and recyclers in the machinery’s development. The feedback and results will be used to refine the product before the official launch in September 2024. Jonas Døvik, Tomra’s product manager for multi-feed solutions, tells Packaging Insights that in all four countries, current multi-feed R1 is already available, so multi-feed recycling is “more familiar” to consumers.
