COMPANY PROFILE

Meet AMP Robotics.

HQ: Louisville, CO

Founder: Matanya Horowitz

Opportunity: Globally, more than $200 billion worth of recyclable materials go unrecovered each year due to the economics and efficiency of identifying and sorting paper, plastics, metals, and other recyclables from the waste stream. AMP Robotics develops and deploys ultra-fast and accurate artificial-intelligence-powered industrial robotic sorting technology to salvage these materials at a fraction of the cost.

Vision: Apply artificial intelligence to unlock constraints in the waste industry, modernizing and scaling global waste infrastructure to increase recovery rates, meet ramping demand for recycled content, and create a more sustainable, circular economy.

Status: Active

QUICK FACTS

> First partnered with Valor in 2020.

> AMP’s robots consistently pick upwards of 80 items per minute, at more than twice the pace of human sorters, and at an accuracy rate of more than 99% on material they positively sort.

> AMP’s technology can recognize and recover materials as small as a bottlecap and as unique as a Keurig coffee pod from complex waste streams.

> In 2020, AMP closed its largest contract to date, for 24 AI-guided robotics systems, with Waste Connections.

“As we work to transform the economics and efficiency of recycling, we’re thrilled to draw on Valor’s deep expertise in technology and operationally intensive businesses.”
