Ishitva® Flake Analyzer
Analyze, Validate & Improve Your Flake Streams
Beyond what humans or traditional tools can detect, giving recyclers clarity, precision, and confidence in every load they process.
What is Ishitva’s Flake Analyzer?
In recycling, even the smallest impurity can change everything. A batch of flakes that looks clean to the eye may still carry hidden contaminants— foreign polymers, labels, or off-colors—that affect quality, safety, and ultimately the price you get from buyers.
The Flake Analyzer by ISHITVA® is designed to solve this challenge. It’s an advanced material analysis system powered by AI, machine learning, and hyperspectral vision. In simple terms, it can “see” beyond what humans or traditional tools can detect, giving recyclers clarity, precision, and confidence in every load they process.
- For PET flakes, this means accurately identifying foreign polymers and color impurities—critical when you’re producing food-grade, bottle-to-bottler PET.
- For mixed plastics flakes, it means ensuring no foreign material sneaks in to compromise its end applications.
The system can analyze flakes and regrinds by polymer type, color, and volume—including dark and black objects that are usually the hardest to detect.
What makes it truly powerful is its ability to report contamination levels in PPM (parts per million). Why does that matter? Because in the industry, PPM defines value.
- Bottle-to-bottle applications demand less than 30 PPM.
- Bottle-to-fiber applications allow up to 100 PPM.
By knowing the exact PPM in real time, you can continuously refine your process, set the right price for your material, and build buyer trust with transparency.
With Ishitva’s Flake Analyzer, you don’t just check quality—you prove it.


Why Ishitva’s Flake Analyzer Matters?
Traditional checks of flake samples are slow, subjective, and inconsistent. The Flake Analyzer transforms this process with real-time, data-driven validation at the flake level.
With it, you can:
- Know the PPM level real time
- Eliminate manual guesswork
- Reduce rejections and debit notes
- Detect foreign polymers (unwanted polymers)
- Detect colour within polymers
- Continuously refine processes to maximize yield
- Spot wrong colors and impurities
- Meet buyer standards with confidence
- Maximize value and reduce waste
- Build trust with buyers through auditable quality data
With Ishitva’s Flake Analyzer you don’t just check your flakes, you prove their value.
