Evergreen to install AI-enabled sorting robotics at its recycling plant

Source:Adsale Plastics Network Date :2022-03-14 Editor :JK

Evergreen, one of North America’s three largest producers of food grade rPET, will be installing AI-enabled bottle sorting robotics at its plastics recycling and rPET manufacturing facility in Albany, New York. When the installation is completed in mid-2022, Evergreen will have deployed 15 high-speed, highly accurate robotic lines at its three of its United States locations.

 

Supplying the robotics sorting lines to Albany is AMP Robotics Corp., a pioneer in AI robotics and infrastructure for the waste industry. AMP installed the AI-enabled robotic sorting lines in Evergreen Clyde in April 2021 and Evergreen Riverside in August 2021.

Omar Abuaita, Evergreen President and CEO, shared, “Automating our sorting lines allows us to support ever larger PET recycling streams, provide the millions of pounds of food grade rPET our customers have committed to purchasing, and achieve a safer, more efficient work environments for our team.”

 

Last month, Abuaita revealed that Evergreen, a portfolio company of private equity firm the Sterling Group, has invested more than US$200 million in modernization, capacity expansion, and acquisitions over the last 12 month. The AMP robotics are part of that investment.

 

Evergreen currently recycles more than 11.6 billion post-consumer PET bottles a year, up from 2 billion in 2021. General Manager of Evergreen, Greg Johnson, believes that the AI-enabled sorting lines are an absolute necessity to increase both the speed and accuracy of sorting the monumental volume of bottles Evergreen processes.

 

The company’s annual capacity of food grade rPET is 147 million pounds, up from 40 million pounds just one year ago. When the company’s expansion at Evergreen Clyde is completed in mid-2022, its annual rPET capacity will swell to 217 million pounds.
