Why SortFlow IO?
The Challenge
Sampling is labour-intensive, error-prone, and spread across clipboards and spreadsheets—making quarterly EA submissions and supplier / material reporting slow and stressful.
The Solution
SortFlow IO standardises sampling at the point of work, automates scheduling, and produces internal, commercial, and EA-ready outputs in a click—improving quality, saving time, and supporting decisions.
Key Features
Features that matter
Guided Sampling on Any Device
Step-by-step sampling workflows accessible on mobile, tablet, or desktop.
Ensure consistent methods, reduce human error, and make field sampling simple for operators.
Quality & Trend Dashboards
Visualise material quality over time with intuitive dashboards.
Spot trends, detect drifts, and understand composition changes at a glance.
Automated Weighbridge Integration
Seamlessly import weighbridge transactions for all inbound and outbound materials.
Link quantities with sampling data to monitor sampling frequency versus throughput and improve representativeness.
Smart Sampling Oversight
Track whether sufficient samples are taken relative to volumes processed.
Identify gaps and prioritise where sampling effort is needed most.
Plant Performance Insights
Combine composition data with tonnage flows to assess facility’s sorting performance.
Measure yield and recovery using both quality and mass data.
Compliance-Ready Reporting
Generate structured datasets and reports for regulatory and EPR requirements (EA waste returns).
Reduce time spent on manual reporting and improve audit readiness.
Process Integration
Where it fits in your workflow
Plan
Track material quantities in and out of the facility and plan sampling accordingly. Sampling needs are defined based on throughput and target frequencies, helping ensure representative coverage.
Sample
Record samples at the point of work using guided digital workflows on mobile, tablet, or desktop. Built-in controls help ensure consistency and data integrity.
Analyse
Visualise quality data through dashboards and trends. Compare results over time, investigate deviations, and understand material composition performance.
Report
Generate compliance and performance reports automatically — including EA waste returns and basket-value reports — with weighbridge data integrated when available.
Outcomes
The results you’ll see
- Save operator time with ergonomic capture, auto-calcs, and ready-made exports.
- Fewer errors via templates, warnings, and EA field defaults.
- Clear supplier feedback with commercial reports—even down to vehicle-level quality.
- Compliance confidence with EA-ready tables aligned to 2024 MRF regs.
- Financial insight using Basket Value to link composition to £/t and trends.
