NAMDAL RESSURS
Namdal Ressurs, which translates to ‘Namdal Resource’ is an innovative Norwegian company, delivering all equipment necessary in the waste management industry. Namdal Ressurs was early with naming waste and garbage ‘resources’ , because that is what a lot of waste is, if you handle it properly and know how to utilize it.

Namdal Ressurs delivers equipment and technology for sorting and handling waste to municipalities around Norway, as well as public and private companies. It can be containers, bins, bag-products, recycling and sorting equipment and buried waste-solutions.
When you think of a garbage bin, you might think of one of those green bins you put your used gum in, but that is not all it is. Namdal Ressurs has in the past years invested heavily in digitalization and innovation and a lot of their products have built-in smart solutions, where the waste is compressed in the bins through solar-panel technology. Some have built in chips that make sure only those who are supposed to access the bin, can access it.
Namdal Ressurs has even developed their own sensors that gives them full control over the amount of waste in containers, making the containers be able to signal when they are full and should be emptied.
The sensors are also programmed to calculate when it is most optimal to empty the container, even if it is not full. If there is a half-full container, they can get a garbage truck doing a route in the area to empty it as well, instead of setting up a new pick up for when the container gets full. With this they save time, resources and the environment. This mindset is both innovative and sustainable.
As a part of their heavy investment in digitalization and innovation in the waste management industry, Namdal Ressurs bought/acquired Trondheim based company Fieldata in 2021. Fieldata is the foremost company in the country regar-
industry.
Namdal Ressurs is not only innovative in terms of the digitalization of the waste industry, they also introduced the
