Activity highlights
Completed the PGH Lab 10.0 pilot in collaboration with the City of Pittsburgh to test a plastic waste identification and tracing platform

Reclamation Factory develops advanced automation and sensing technologies to improve plastic recovery and sorting in recycling and waste management facilities. Their core product, the Plastic Harvester system, utilizes machine vision, optical sensing, and spectral analysis to identify, classify, and sort materials that are often difficult to process with standard visual methods, such as part-form plastics found in e-waste, flat panel displays, and monitor enclosures. The company also offers an acoustic AI system designed to sort materials based on sound, as well as feasibility experimentation services to help operators design and validate processes before deploying new equipment. Their technology provides data-rich tracing and compliance reporting capabilities to ensure material purity and value. By enabling e-waste recyclers to efficiently extract valuable polymers like ABS, PS, and PC from complex waste streams, Reclamation Factory helps facilities maximize the value of recovered materials, minimize contamination, and protect downstream processing equipment. Their solutions integrate directly into existing operations to automate the identification and classification of plastic components at production speeds, supporting circular economy initiatives through improved material recovery rates and accurate sorting of additives and resin types.
