As the world grapples with growing environmental challenges, waste management companies are stepping up with strong sustainability commitments.
Companies are focusing on several key objectives:
Waste management companies need a partner to help them accomplish all the above goals. This is where EverestLabs comes in.
At EverestLabs, we’re proud to partner with waste management companies to help them achieve these impactful goals. Here’s how our AI and robotic solutions make a difference:
Our cutting-edge AI and robotics sorting technology can boost material recovery rates by 2-3x compared to manual sorters. This improvement helps facilities support corporate commitments to enhance recycling rates while also:
Contamination in waste streams adds costs and impedes quality. It is also one of the most significant barriers to achieving sustainability goals.
Our AI-powered vision systems continuously monitor your waste stream, identifying sources of contamination and providing actionable data to optimize sorting processes. Furthermore, EverestLabs robotics can be strategically deployed across your facility to remove contamination from your waste stream, delivering a clean, high-quality output of recyclable materials.
Working in the waste management sector can be hazardous, prompting many companies to prioritize reducing accidents, sick leave, and fatalities. Reducing accident and sick leave rates for sorters is one way to address these commitments. By incorporating AI and robotics, employees can transition from physically demanding, repetitive tasks to higher-value roles, creating a safer and more fulfilling work environment. MRF operators have reported that using robots in place of humans for sorting has allowed personnel to move into higher-priority positions, which is a win for team members and plant safety.
By increasing material recovery with AI and robotics, facilities reduce GHG emissions and save energy. For instance, a single robot can recover over 7 million cans annually, saving approximately 176,000 kWh of energy.
We provide customized analytics reports on metrics such as tons recovered, greenhouse gas emissions reduced, and energy savings in kilowatt-hours. All of which can be seamlessly integrated into your sustainability reporting.
Our AI and robotic sorting solutions are designed to seamlessly integrate into existing facilities, delivering unmatched efficiency and reliability:
The impact of our technology speaks for itself. We helped one Material Recovery Facility (MRF) recover over $420,000 annually from its last chance line. Imagine what we could achieve for your facility.
