According to Packaging Dive, 35 companies have been penalized by the state of Washington for not using enough recycled plastic in beverage containers and trash bags. The Clorox Company, one of the organizations fined, states that “the rise of companies making plastic commitments and resulting demand for PCR plastic is straining the PCR supply chain.” #AI and #robotics offer a promising solution to this problem. These technologies can enhance sorting accuracy, reduce contamination, and optimize feedstock quality, leading to lower processing costs, higher yields of #PCR plastics for brands to use in their packaging.

About us
EverestLabs is working to decarbonize the planet by recovering all recyclables. We are using AI, robotics and automation to help material recovery facilities (MRFs) and Recyclers operate more efficiently and enabling CPG brands to exceed their recycled content, EPR and ESG goals EverestLabs was founded with the belief that the planet (and industry) needs our help. MRFs are in the business of sorting hundreds of millions of tons of waste and recyclables, and it’s a business that is in dire need of modern technologies amid economic downturns, labor shortages, climate change goals, and more. EverestLabs’ technology, RecycleOS, is the only AI-enabled recycling solution that empowers MRFs to cost effectively recover more materials. With more than 97% AI accuracy, we guarantee pick efficacy for the widest range of recyclable materials. This leads to increased revenue and better business outcomes for the recycling industry. Most importantly, it’s contributing to a more sustainable future for our planet. And this is just the beginning: EverestLabs is committed to demystifying AI and automation for the recycling industry and creating a world where no recyclable is left behind.

Aluminum cans can be recycled endlessly, yet U.S. recycling rates have stagnated. To build a #circulareconomy, we must boost #recycling rates for valuable materials like aluminum. Support across the supply chain is essential, and AI can play a pivotal role for MRFs. At EverestLabs, we've transformed recycling with our RecycleOS platform, combining #AI and #robotics to increase material recovery by 2-3x compared to traditional methods. With consumer education and investment in AI technology, we can achieve higher recovery rates and better environmental outcomes. Discover how in this article!

"Sorting methods that blend artificial intelligence (AI), computer vision technology and automation into systems capable of improving the accuracy and speed of material separation from waste is finding increasing use at Material Recovery Facilities (MRFs), plastics recycling plants and packaging maker plants." The September issue of PlasticsWorld magazine highlights companies like EverestLabs that are using advanced technologies, like #AI and #robotics, to improve sorting accuracy in #recycling facilities. Head over to page 22 to learn how we are using AI, robotics, and #data to automate sorting operations, improve feedstock supply, and increase recovery of recycled materials.

Within the last 15 years, recycling has plateaued. Why is that? With recent technological advancements, including the integration of AI and MRFs, you would think the solution is clear. Since 2015, the #recycling rate has struggled to exceed 35% and has decreased in recent years. The reason isn’t that we are producing less waste but that we're failing to leverage #data and technology when it comes to recycling. To protect the planet from our waste production, we must change our home turf. Investing in #AI technology will make recycling more efficient for companies and bring us closer to and beyond that 35% recycling rate. If you want to learn more, check out this article and reach out to EverestLabs to learn more about our AI and #robotics solutions!

"The need for EPR is clear, as 71% of the world’s waste comes from products and packaging, with millions of tons ending up in landfills annually. By redesigning packaging and driving innovation, EPR can help recover valuable materials, reduce landfill waste, and improve stagnant recycling rates in the U.S." As #ClimateWeekNYC wraps up, we want to highlight Extended Producer Responsibility (EPR) legislation and the positive impact it will have on our #environment. #EPR has the potential to reduce waste generation, increase recycling rates, decrease environmental pollution, and bolster our circular economy. It will be critical in our fight against climate change. Learn more about EPR and how #AI and #robotics can contribute to its success by exploring our latest blog: #climatechange #circulareconomy

How much impact can a single EverestLabs robot make? 🤖 The answer... a lot! While our robots are small, about the same size as a human sorter, they make a big impact. Our goal is to use #robotics, #AI, and #data to make the #recycling industry more efficient, increase the supply of recycled feedstock for #sustainable packaging, and strengthen the circular economy. Discover how we're achieving this by visiting our website: https://lnkd.in/ewGMD6Bb #circulareconomy #sustainablepackaging

It's #ClimateWeekNYC so we thought it fitting to share this #robot that is recovering an average of 1,565 UBCs per day from Caglia Environmental's last chance line, reducing carbon emissions and waste sent to landfills. Our work with Caglia Environmental, Can Manufacturers Institute, and The Recycling Partnership shows how industry partnerships can increase #recycling efficiency, drive up profits, boost the recovery of recyclables, and overall strengthen the #circulareconomy. To learn more about our work with Caglia, check out this case study: https://lnkd.in/gQA9mYdr
Here's our Last Chance Line AI-powered robot capturing missed recyclables. 🤖 This year, we added new AI-guided robots from EverestLabs to our Materials Recovery Facility (MRF). This upgrade enhanced our ability to recover polyethylene terephthalate (PET) containers. PET is a plastic commonly used in bottles and packaging, and it's fully recyclable. So far, our new robot team members have helped the Central Valley increase the number of recyclables diverted from landfills. This was a huge step for us, our community, and the environment here in the Central Valley.
